Fox confessed to being intoxicated while aboard an aircraft during her appearance at Uxbridge Magistrates’ Court today.

Additionally, she admitted to using threatening, abusive, or insulting language with the intention to cause harassment, alarm, or distress, directed at a police officer.

However, Fox refuted allegations of assault by beating concerning her wife, Linda Olsen, aged 47.

She is scheduled to stand trial at the same court on September 2 regarding that accusation. It was reported in January that Fox was arrested and spent a night in a police cell after allegedly engaging in a dispute with another passenger.

The British Airways plane had to be turned around, leading holidaymakers to disembark because of the strict 10pm closing time at the German airport. As a result, passengers were accommodated in a hotel before resuming their journey the following day.

Fox was hit by tragedy last year when her sister Vanessa died suddenly following a heart attack, aged 50.

The heartbreak came eight years after her long-term partner Myra Stratton died of cancer.

Fox began her career in The Sun 40 years ago before going on to pose nude for Playboy magazine and even insure her boobs for £1million.

She became a household name thanks to regular TV appearances – including Celebrity Big Brother and Celebrity Masterchef.

The model also launched a singing career and was previously nominated for a Brit Award.

Fox married Linda Olsen in a stunning ceremony in June 2022.

Police confirmed to  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 the profound bond she had with Vanessa, who once shielded her from their alcoholic father Pat. Sam vividly recounted the harrowing experience, stating, “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.”
