Days after the original incident, Blair issued an apology to Vanity Fair.

“I made a big mistake yesterday. After a lovely trip with my son and his Dad, I mixed alcohol with medication, and that caused me to black out and led me to say and do things that I deeply regret,” she said in part. “I am a flawed human being who makes mistakes and am filled with shame over this incident. I am truly very sorry.”
