Samantha Fox was held in jail overnight following an alleged drunken altercation on a plane, it's been reported.

The iconic glamour model, 56, was reportedly on a British Airways flight from London to Munich when she allegedly had a disagreement with another passenger.

It's claimed the plane was ready for take-off on the runway but had to be turned around at Heathrow after Page 3 legend Sam allegedly caused a scene, according to sources.

Passengers were reportedly asked to disembark and were accommodated in a hotel before continuing their journey the next day, according to reports. It's claimed Sam is deeply sorry following the alleged incident and has apologised.

Police confirmed to The Sun that a woman in her 50s was arrested on suspicion of being drunk on an aircraft and has been bailed until March. According to the same publication, Sam has expressed her deep regret for any inconvenience caused and is cooperating with the investigation. The Mirror has approached a representative for Sam for comment.

Sam, who rose to fame as a glamour model in the 1980s before becoming a pop star, married her partner of six years Linda Oslen in 2022, with a lavish ceremony in Essex. The former Celebrity Big Brother star and Linda announced their engagement in March 2020, four years after they first struck up a romance in 2016.

During an appearance on Loose Women, Sam revealed that it was Linda who proposed, after panellist Frankie Bridge asked Sam if she was surprised when it happened. "Kind of, I did hint!" Sam admitted, before adding: "I mean I’m getting on a bit now. When I met her, I knew I was completely in love with her and wanted to be with her forever."

Recalling the moment she first dropped some wedding hints to her now-wife, Sam added: "I was doing a concert in Slovakia and we stayed in a 16th century castle and I said, ‘wouldn’t it be lovely to get married here?’ She waited until Valentine’s Day 2020 to ask me to be her wife. She got down on one knee and it was all very traditional, I cried, she cried.

Prior to embarking on a relationship with Linda, Sam spent 12-years with her former manager and long-term partner Myra Stratton, until her then-fiancée passed away from cancer in 2015. Last year, Sam suffered another devastating loss when her sister Vanessa passed away suddenly from a heart attack at the age of 50.

In her 2017 autobiography, Forever, Sam shared how close she was to Vanessa, who once saved her from their alcoholic father Pat. Sam recalled: "I thought he was going to kill me and begged him to stop. When I tried to get up he kicked me so hard in the stomach it winded me and he wouldn't stop."
