A man wearing a wedding ring and allegedly flirting with a woman on a flight to New York City has sparked widespread interest online.
Caroline Rened recorded the unidentified man flirting with a woman on a United Airlines flight from Houston, Texas, in now-viral footage and inadvertently attracted the attention of millions online.
In his caption, Rened explained that the man was sitting next to a woman he believed was called ‘Katy’, whom he had met at an airport bar before the couple boarded the plane.
—If this is your husband, who is flying United Airlines Flight 2140 from Houston to New York, he will probably stay with Katy tonight. “He and Katy met at the airport bar and haven’t been apart since,” the travel companion said.
Video of the interaction shows the man, dressed in tan shorts, a green T-shirt and a baseball cap, chatting with the woman in the row behind Rened as passengers board the plane.

In the caption, Caroline Rened said the man was sitting next to the woman who had supposedly met her at an airport bar before boarding the plane.
At one point, the married man is seen with his shirt lifted halfway as he turns into the hallway, before continuing his conversation with the woman.
In the images you can see the couple talking throughout the flight and the man seems very animated during the conversation.
Rened said he was able to deduce that the man is from Fort Worth, Texas, and is a father.
“He convinced her to change seats so she could sit next to him and drink,” Rened said.
“I don’t know his name, but I know hers because he keeps saying it.”
The passenger added that she heard the man say that he was a surfer and that he was “supposedly” the president of the company where she works. She mentioned that she also said that he was going to New York on a business trip.
“I wouldn’t have known he was married if he hadn’t been wearing his wedding ring. Sorry for rubbing my eye, I didn’t know what else to do to record myself,” Rened continued.
