Jesse James Decker says his pregnant sister, Sidney Bass, was ‘humiliated’ after she recently boarded a plane with her two daughters.
Bass, 31, was traveling with Brooklyn Ray, 5, and Blair, 2, on United Airlines when one of the girls spilled popcorn.
Decker explained on Instagram Stories: In the aisle, a flight attendant comes to Sydney with a garbage bag and wet wipes, and her captain tells her he wants Sid to clean up her every drop.
Jesse continued.
Sydney also appeared in Decker’s Stories revealing United gave popcorn to children.

Decker said, “Guys, I always thought this popcorn was just picked up in a small newsstand by Sydney. There are two flights to Sydney and United served both popcorn on the first flight. .”
The singer referred to flight attendants calling popcorn a “safety hazard,” adding, “If popcorn is dangerous, why give it on a plane? Yeah, this is just…”
Sydney then posted an Instagram photo of Blair holding a bag of Skinny Pop popcorn, writing, “She’s so cute.”
Her husband, Toronto Blue Jays player Anthony Bass, also posted on Twitter about the incident.

The ordeal sparked mixed reactions online. Some felt that it wasn’t their job to clean up after the kids, while others were more cooperative. One commenter wrote, “She was flying alone. W Two kids. Pregnant. Just stop. We all have jobs. Crew do this every day. Popcorn.” Don’t spit it out. Vacuum works great.
