Lee Ryan has made a public apology for his “inappropriate” behaviour, which led to him being arrested on a British Airways flight from Glasgow last week. The Blue star said following the incident he is going to “seek professional help” after kicking off when he was refused alcohol on the flight to London City Airport.
Lee is said to have launched a foul-mouthed tirade at the cabin crew when they didn’t serve him booze. When the plane landed in London, the 39-year-old was handcuffed and arrested on suspicion of public order offences. He was later released on bail pending further investigation, but revealed it had been a wake-up call to address his issues.
A statement on Blue’s official Instagram page said: “A Note from Lee. Over the last few days, I have had a lot of time to think about my behaviour and how it affects people around me. As it has been well documented I have always had my struggled with alcohol and often say or do silly things as a result of that, which in turn has caused upset for myself and those around me. For that I want to apologise to everyone I have upset or offended.”
