- Paris Hilton and her fiance Chris Zylka were spotted at LAX as they headed home.
- Her driver accidentally forgot Zylka at the airport, driving off and ending in a viral video.
- Now Paris is responding with the whole story and fans are loving it.
When you're a "normal" person, your embarrassing moments are kept just between you and whoever happens to be around at that time. But when you're engaged to one of the most famous women in the world, suddenly those moments get a lot more public.
Paris Hilton's fiance Chris Zylka learned that the hard way after becoming the star of a recent viral video in which he was left at the curb while Hilton's driver sped off.
Hilton and Zylka were spotted leaving LAX on the night of Thursday, January 4, when of course, the usual paparazzi cameras caught them heading back into town. There was a ton of commotion because duh, Paris Hilton.
In a video from the DailyMail, the couple approached their car amidst camera flashes, stashed their luggage, and Hilton got into the vehicle. Her driver shut the door for her and sped off into the Hollywood night.
One little problem here … the driver forgot Chris Zylka.
Luckily, Zylka didn't have to call Uber. Hilton stepped onto Twitter to say it was the flashes and commotion that left him unable to track down both of his riders
"The driver thought he was in the car with us," she wrote with a face-palm emoji. "He didn't realize with all the cameras & commotion. As soon as he sped off, I said "You left my Fiance!!" Then he backed his car up right away & got him within a few seconds. #Beyond."
Fans agreed that it was a relatable occurrence and common mistake, though some were more amused than others.
Sounds something that I would accidentally do.
