Jenny McCarthy broke her silence after her husband Donnie Wahlberg’s plane skidded off the runway at the Las Vegas airport on Sunday.

The following day, the 53-year-old actress expressed her relief that the Blue Bloods star was unharmed and walked away from the incident safely.

On Monday, the 57-year-old singer confirmed he was on the plane that skidded off the runway and hit the fence in a post shared via Instagram.

McCarthy responded to his post with a slew of prayer hands and red heart emojis, commenting: ‘God is so good!!!!’

In Wahlberg’s social media statement, he told his fans that his private jet veered off the runway during a failed take-off at Las Vegas’ Harry Reid International Airport around 11 a.m.

The plane, which had eight people onboard, crashed into a fence with emergency services responding to the scene. No injuries were reported.

Wahlberg took to Instagram with a video saying: ‘Getting a lot of concerned messages and texts about my flight’s failed attempt at leaving Las Vegas this morning. Thank you to all!

‘I appreciate your concern and well wishes. I made this video for my friends and family, after the incident, but so many of you all are my family too so I figured I’d share with you.

‘Yes, it was me and my team/friends onboard the aircraft. It was a rather intense few moments (which felt like a few long minutes).

‘Thankful to God, of course, and to our incredible pilots who did an amazing job of keeping us safe and avoiding a serious disaster.

‘The airplane did take some lumps — but we did not. Thank you to all the emergency personnel on the ground in Las Vegas! You all were absolutely wonderful. All glory to God! By His grace, we are all ok.’

Two runways were closed for inspection after the incident, and the Federal Aviation Administration temporarily paused planned flights to the airport, causing delays, per AP.

As of August, the airport had over 370,000 operations and more than 34 million passengers so far in 2026.

The Daily Mail has contacted representatives for comment and has yet to hear back.
