The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey confirmed that two flight attendants reported injuries following the incident. One was transported to a hospital for further evaluation.<\/p>\n
Authorities responded to the plane after it arrived at JFK at approximately 11 p.m. Blair was taken into custody and transported to a hospital for evaluation. The FBI is investigating the incident.<\/p>\n
However, Blair\u2019s representative says there is an important detail to consider before jumping to conclusions about the alleged behavior.<\/p>\n
\u201cSelma experienced a medical emergency that led to the alleged conduct,\u201d the representative told TMZ. \u201cUpon landing, she received immediate medical attention and is currently in stable condition.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nThe nature of the reported medical emergency has not been publicly disclosed, and it remains unclear what criminal charges Blair may face in connection with the incident.<\/p>\n
The situation is particularly concerning given the actress\u2019s previous in-flight incident in 2016. At the time, Blair was removed from a flight<\/a> on a stretcher following an outburst that she later attributed to mixing prescription medication with alcohol.<\/p>\nShe subsequently apologized for the disruption and expressed regret over her behavior.<\/p>\n
Blair has also been open about her health struggles. In 2018, she revealed that she had been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis<\/a>, an autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system. Since then, she has used her public platform to raise awareness about living with the condition.<\/p>\nThe circumstances surrounding Sunday\u2019s incident remain under investigation. The allegations have not established what caused the confrontation, and Blair\u2019s representative has pointed to a medical emergency as the reason for her reported behavior.<\/p>\n
We will have further updates on this developing story as new information becomes available.<\/p>\n
