On Monday (January 8), Kaley was a guest on the Jimmy Kimmel Live! Show as she was promoting her new Amazon Prime Video film Role Play.
During her conversation with host Jimmy, the actress, who ironically played a cabin crew member for two seasons on the dark comedy-drama The Flight Attendant, shared her irritating plane story that occurred around Thanksgiving.
Kaley recalled: “I was so terrified,” she said of flying with her baby for the first time. “So I thought, ‘What do we do?’ We have to bring her sound machine on the plane. It’s the only thing she can go to sleep to.”

The Golden Globe-nominated actress continued: “We’re having one of those flights that you hear that other people have, and you’re like, ‘Oh, that sucks for them.’ It actually happened to us.”
Kaley noted that she and Tom had successfully gotten Matilda, who is only nine months old, to stop crying and fall asleep by putting a sound machine next to her ear.
“So she’s crying [on the plane],” the actress said. “She finally falls asleep, and she’s on Tom, and the sound machine is on, and we were finally like [ugh].”
Nevertheless, the TV star revealed that she was then approached by a flight attendant with a request from another passenger to turn off the sound machine.

“The steward comes over and he’s like, ‘Hey, one of our passengers would love it if you would turn the sound machine off’ … and I’m sitting there and I’m like, ‘Oh my god. Oh my god,’” Kaley said.
She continued: “And I can feel Tom be like, ‘Hey, ask the passenger if she wants to hold our screaming child when we turn it off.’ I mean, the ice went into his veins.”
The actress recalled: “I couldn’t believe, by the way, she asked us to turn it off. Can you believe that?”
The new anxious mom admitted that the passenger’s surprising request wasn’t well received by her partner either.

Kaley went on to explain that she and Tom “were so angry” by the request, adding that once the plane landed, Matilda was awake and all cheery.
The actress further explained that the passenger who made the request turned to them and said, “Oh, so your daughter does know how to smile.”
Kaley quipped: “It was in that moment where I understood why women end up on Dateline. I could have strangled her,” she said, before later adding, “I could have thrown that woman off the plane.”
Dateline is an NBC TV show airing weekly, which often features true crime investigations.

Kaley concluded her interview on a positive note, as she said at the top of her interview that motherhood is “incredible.”
The actress confirmed her relationship with Tom in May 2022. Five months later, she announced on Instagram that they were expecting their first child together.
As of now, the couple is not married.
Kaley’s story sparked a debate on how to handle similar situations while flying with infants

Its a perfectly reasonable request to ask someone to turn off a white noise generator. It's also perfectly reasonable to explain that there's a choice between the white noise generator or a crying baby, and let the people in the area choose. What makes life so much easier is when parents pack a supply of ear plugs. These can be distributed to fellow passengers.

The celebrity (idk who she is and don’t care enough to Google) called it a “sound machine”, interestingly, and NOT a “white noise” machine, which makes me wonder if it wasn’t white noise but was something else - e.g., ocean sounds, soft music, etc. Either way - how do you have the gall to bring a sound machine onto public transport? As far as I’m concerned, that’s exactly the same thing as watching videos/music on your phone with the sound turned up/no headphones. You’re blaring sound at other people on public transport. It’s unacceptable regardless of the type of sound or the device making said sound(s). I think people would have been more understanding of a baby crying (as that’s what babies do, and one cannot control it) than the noise from a “sound machine”. Also, we should talk about the fact that this woman “joked” REPEATEDLY about attacking/harming and unaliving a fellow passenger. That’s NOT something that is ha-ha oh so funny. That is NOT something to be “joked” about on national television.

I could be in the minority, but I'd rather hear a sound machine than a crying baby.

Earphones for the baby should solve her problems, but then she is privlaged.

Wouldn't the sound of the plane engine drown out the sound machine? Wouldn't the engine be enough of a sound machine? Planes are not quiet, serene, utopias. I'm not sure why people think a plane should be. I'd rather hear a baby crying than whiny, crabby adults making the atmosphere tense.
