Sean Bean hurls glass at wife Ashley Moore after she pours wine into his lap during drunk mid-air altercation
'Game of Thrones' star Sean Bean and his fifth wife Ashley Moore were involved in a massive fight that saw the actor throw a glass at her in anger during their flight back to the United Kingdom, according to reports. The scuffle broke out in the first-class cabin of a British Airways flight from Vancouver to Heathrow that Bean, 60, and Moore, 33, were traveling in earlier this week after the pair had been freely drinking, sources told the Sun.
"Sean and his missus were knocking back the vino from the moment they boarded," revealed one co-passenger. "About halfway through the flight, they started arguing. You could hear them slurring. It was getting very uncomfortable."
"They were very drunk and in high spirits but suddenly things turned nasty."
The couple was in next-door beds in the middle of the cabin when Moore reportedly "reached across and poured her full, large glass of white wine into Sean’s lap," which enraged the actor.
"It was incendiary and he snapped," the co-passenger said. "It caused Sean to jump up and shout. He was in scruffy jogging bottoms and looked a mess. At that point, in a rage, he then hurled his glass at her."
Just as it looked as though the fight was about to escalate further, a member of the cabin crew intervened and calmed down the situation. "It’s difficult to remonstrate with an A-lister celeb," the co-passenger added.
Bean and Moore were met after the flight by officials in a VIP buggy, and airline sources shared that they were both "lucky" police were not called to the scene.
The actor had been in Vancouver to star in the second series of 'Snowpiercer,' a television adaptation of a 2013 South Korean-Czech film of the same name.
He had married Moore, 26 years his junior, in 2017 following a five-year relationship that began with a "chance meeting" at The Cobden Arms his favorite North London pub which happens to be very close to his former home.
Just last year, the actor, who has three daughters from his previous marriages, had admitted he was open to the prospect of having a child with Moore and said her "optimism and vibrancy" had changed his life.
"Possibly, yes. With Ashley, yeah. That would be nice, that," he had admitted when asked about the possibility of having more kids.
