The Cranberries singer gives her side of the story.
Speaking to the Sunday Independent, Cranberries singer Dolores O’Riordan has apologised to the air hostess, Carmel Coyne, on whose foot she stood on a transatlantic flight.
“Carmel is lovely. I know Carmel a long time from flying over and back transatlantic since I had the little wee babies in the buggies. I really like her. She knows for a fact that it was an accident with my metal shoes,” O’Riordan said.
“And there were bad people having too much booze roaring at me. And I backed up and stood on her foot by an accident, like a child in the playground. I’m sorry Carmel.”
The 43-year-old explained that people ‘were scaring her’ during the incident, after which she was taken to hospital via Shannon Garda station.
She has since been released and a file will be sent to the Director of Public Prosecutions in relation to the incident.
