Actor Stephen Amell has said he was asked to leave a plane before it took off after he got into an argument with his wife.
The Canadian star said he was asked to leave the flight after he raised his voice during the dispute with actress Cassandra Jean in the US.
He said he was told to lower his voice before being asked to leave the plane.
My wife and I got into an argument Monday afternoon on a Delta flight from Austin to LA. I was asked to lower my voice and I did. Approximately 10 minutes later I was asked to leave the flight. And I did so immediately. I was not forcibly removed.
