Stephen Amell was forcibly removed from a flight in Texas — this after allegedly screaming at his wife in front of a plane full of passengers.
Amell, who was flying Delta from Austin to Los Angeles after attending the ATX Television Festival over the weekend, was removed after a flight attendant asked him multiple times to calm down as he allegedly screamed at, Cassandra Jean Amell while appearing drunk.
The actor, 40, posted to Twitter on Wednesday:
I rebooked myself on a Southwest flight 2 hours later and traveled home without any further issue. I let my emotions get the better of me, end of story. Must be a slow news cycle.

After reportedly ignoring a flight attendant’s requests to calm down, Stephen was escorted off the plane by several flight attendants and an air marshal, the outlet said.
It is not clear whether Amell was detained or arrested by authorities in Texas.

His wife Cassandra continued with her journey, leaving her husband in Austin to book onto another flight.
A Delta rep confirmed their flight was delayed due to an unruly passenger, but wouldn’t comment further about Stephen or any possible charges.
