Lily James has reportedly swerved yet another interview - her third in just a few days.
Earlier this week, the Downton Abbey star was said to have pulled out of appearances on The Today Show and The Graham Norton Show.
She should be on the promotional trail for her new Netflix romantic thriller Rebecca, which dropped today.
But after pictures of her and married actor Dominic West emerged, she's been seemingly dropping out of all her press calls.
The 31-year-old was due to speak to reporters yesterday at an event for the Hollywood Foreign Press Association.
But it's said that she abruptly pulled out of the chat just 45 minutes earlier.
A source told Page Six : "It was a two-day junket.
"On the first day, Lily was joined by the producers who it seemed were there to protect her from anyone asking questions about the photos.
"The next day, when members of the HFPA and others were due to talk to her, she pulled out at the 11th hour. There was no explanation."
Lily has been embroiled in scandal ever since pictures of Dominic, 50, kissing her during a romantic-looking meal in Rome emerged.
He has since declared that his marriage to wife Catherine FitzGerald is "strong" in a defiant statement.
The Affair actor staged a press call outside his home with his wife of 10 years, telling reporters: "I just want to say our marriage is strong and we are still very much still together."
He then handed over a similarly worded note, which was signed by both him and his wife, before kissing her and turning to walk back inside their home.
He had been pictured the week before in Rome with Lily, who had recently split from her on/off boyfriend Matt Smith.
It was said that Lily and the Doctor Who star tried to give it one more go in lockdown but that things hadn't worked out.
Dominic was caught on camera stroking Lily's hair and nuzzling and kissing her neck while they sat down for lunch together.
Dominic and landscape designer Catherine started dating at university and tied the knot in Ireland in 2010. They went on to have four children - Dora, 13, Senan, 12, Francis, 11, and Christabel, seven.
Dominic is also dad to 22-year-old Martha, who he shares with ex Polly Astor.
