“They wouldn’t let the dog sit next to me, so I wasn’t going to stay on the plane,” she told the outlet.
She added, “Of course everyone made a big deal about it, but I’m kind of used to that in my life. They always kind of pick on me.”
A spokesperson for Delta did not immediately respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment regarding Reid’s latest claim.
