Actress Lily James, 31, has returned to work and faced the cameras for the first time since her headline-grabbing trip to Italy with Dominic West.
The actress was seen kissing and cuddling the married man over an intimate lunch in Rome on Sunday.
Dominic West, 50, has since returned home to his wife Catherine Fitzgerald, posing and kissing for the cameras as they gave a statement that their marriage is still intact.
Now, Lily James breaks cover and returned to work, participating in a video call to promote her new film Rebecca — a new adaptation of Daphne du Maurier’s classic novel.
James stars alongside Armie Hammer, who plays the role of widower Maxim de Winter made famous by Laurence Olivier in Alfred Hitchcock’s Oscar-winning 1940 film version.
Hammer shared a picture of a video call he participated in alongside Lily, the caption reads: “Press tours are so glamorous in 2020.”
The photo showed the two actors doing an interview from home to promote the new film, with Hammer seen on-screen raising his phone to take a snap of the chat.
Lily was seen on the screen to his left, wearing a grey and white dress and sitting in front of a large fireplace with a mounted TV overhead.
Lilly James made headlines this week after photos emerged showing her getting close to Dominic on their trip to Rome.
Dominic — who has been married to Catherine for 10 years and has four children with her – was seen snuggling Lily’s neck and stroking her hair over an intimate lunch.
They were also seen hopping onto a scooter together, with Dominic wrapping his arms around Lily, who is his co-star in the new TV drama The Pursuit of Love.
Lily is newly-single after splitting from her Doctor Who star boyfriend of five years, Matt Smith.
Dominic and his wife gave a statement and were pictured kissing and cuddling outside their Wiltshire home. With the actor declaring the marriage is “still strong” and they are “very much still together”.
However, despite the defiant show of unity, friends close to Catherine have claimed that she is seething about those pictures of her husband.
“She is privately fuming,” they said to MailOnline. “There are some difficult conversations to be had, but those will take place behind closed doors. For now, she was happy to display a show of unity and will always put her family first.”
