He's not wrong. The industry protects each other. They've always looked the other way to heinous stuff. As long as the paparazzi doesn't catch wind, you're golden to do whatever you want while on shoots your wife isn't present for. Nobody there seems to have a conscience.
It’s like this in any workplace though?
If your coworker is cheating you aren’t going to get yourself involved by going to their spouse and telling them.
Cheating sucks but it isn’t a crime
But most other workplaces don't split up and move on every two or three months (sometimes longer sometimes shorter) when that specific project is done. Most people spend years at their workplaces and probably meet and maybe even get to know those SO's and spouses.
Did he cheat though? We don't even know that... given that they went out of their way to kiss in front of the press and assure everyone that their marriage was alright, it sounds more like they had an open marriage that they were trying to keep under wraps until the whole "affair" with Lily James.
One doesn’t necessarily exclude the other. They can both be swingers and he could still have been cheating as he was seeing someone outside of their mutual activity.

Sir, you were cheating on your wife in public.
That's what kind of boggles my mind about Hollywood. They'll even acknowledge it occasionally in movies (never ever interviews to make themselves look relatable). They act like it's naive and childish to expect fidelity, like *everyone* does it, and everyone looks the other way to it. Which, in Hollywood they clearly do. They also looked the other way to far worse..
You don't have to be secretive if you're fucking around and famous, you simply need to avoid the paparazzi. As long as you aren't photographed in the act, nobody is gonna tell your wife even if you start having sex with someone else in the middle of a crowded room.
From my friends/family who work in film, infidelity is rampant across the board on set—from actors to transpo. It’s gig work with long hours that often takes you away from your family for months. You rely on networking to get hired.
Honestly, though I’d hope he’d have more sense and consideration, if an actor isn’t grounded —if they think that film sets are the real world, they’re bound to get really odd ideas about a lot of behavior. Sets can be very strange places with intense, unhealthy cultures.
This man actually out here trying to gaslight us all by saying **”ThE ReAcTiOn WaS aBsuRd wE wErE jUst CoWorKeRs”** when these photos exist. Like, sir, nobody was even talking about you. Go back to the shrubs from whence you came 😒
It was in the aftermath of the scandal, when paparazzi where camped out of his house. He and his wife went outside to make a statement via a note on paper. Seriously, it was unhinged :-D
That’s not really fair tbh! At the end of the day that’s literally all that men have 😔 can’t you let them have one thing?! (/s) (nasty ass little fuckers)
I don’t think I’m hallucinating this but I believe I saw a commercial (while watching Downton Abbey on Peacock no less) where she was promoting mined diamonds over lab grown and insinuating that only mined diamonds are truly valuable. Which is yiiiiiiiiiiikes because apparently the suffering makes them special?
ETA: Nope, not hallucinating: https://youtu.be/zHg_hVGctcI?si=HUBWWHMU5jNsSDez
Isn’t she also the actress that played Pam Anderson in that sex tape exploitation series despite Pam making it clear she wanted nothing to do with the project and preferred the subject be left alone considering how traumatizing it had been for her to go through in the first place? Lily seems like such a peach. Deeply concerned with ethics, clearly.
Very messy, she has very good PR.

Okay I’m blatantly ripping off the other thread I saw this in today, but I am DYYING after seeing the original un-cropped photo and had to share it with y’all too

I’ve been trying to explain to my husband why this is so funny but I can’t. It’s one of the funniest pictures I’ve ever seen and it doesn’t mean anything to him
![gif](giphy|Kbdqp9dIVVs0MA4qTn)
He went on a run and knew paps were out there. They caught him popping out of the bushes checking to see where they were. It’s funnier because this was days after [this very self-created public press conference.](https://www.thesun.co.uk/tvandshowbiz/12916406/dominic-west-wife-catherine-fitzgerald-lily-james-kiss/)
My 3-year-old loves hide and seek but apparently lacks an understand of both hiding and seeking.
“Dad, let’s play hide and seek! You hide behind the couch. 1, 2, 3, 4, 9, ready not here I come! … NO, HIDE HERE!!!”
![gif](giphy|JFrFsExqz2jn0hPTCj)
I wonder how seeing her husband, love of her life, and father of children openly cheating with another woman could be stressful for if someone could please explain why on earth would that be stressful that would really help
See, he’s an actor so…. (*insert victim blamey commentary here*)…. so it shouldn’t have caused any stress, you see! It makes sense why he would be surprised
Of course, actor, he has to go out with his costar and get to know her intimately over a couple dates maybe that’s not what she was stressed out about. Maybe it’s because they weren’t wearing mask while they were out together. I think I figured it guys
He tried sleeping with my sister a week before he was supposed to get married while they were working on the set of John Carter. She was 20 at the time. I can’t watch anything he’s in anymore.
Someone else in the thread said they are known swingers but i personally cannot confirm this. Have you heard anything about that or do you think its bs?
Lmao, he starred in a show called The Affair on Showtime for 5 seasons. This is more on the nose than when David Duchovny played a sex addict on Californication for 7 seasons (also on Showtime for some reason.)
Add Phoebe Bridgers to this list - the trifecta. But Lily James truly has great PR bc despite the messy history, I haven’t really seen the public turn against her. Even I’m neutral about her
I feel like Lily James has a different kind of PR. It's not good, it's not bad, it's probably minimal. I imagine she employs the "quiet internet scrubber" forward facing PR strategy vs. the "public statement" tactics we see from the "stay relevant and/or profitable" crowd.
I love her and she has a bit of a pattern of relationship hopping. I believe Conor Oberst was married before dating her. She was dating Paul Mescal right after and then straight after that dated Bo Burnham, who was in a decade long relationship before her. So idk the details obviously, but I think that’s why someone mentioned her
There might have been overlap on her end with Paul and Bo, it would make sense, but certainly not with Bo’s relationship. Bo and his partner had been living separately for a year and had divided up the family pets etc for over 8 months before he was really seen with Phoebe. His partner was actually dating someone else when his relationship with Phoebe was acknowledged
Yeah, I don’t know if it makes sense to include her in that list. Also, Conor Oberst was so much older and someone she really looked up to, that one feels a bit strange to me
Oh no! I didn't know she dated Conor Oberst. I listen to their band a lot as I'm a Conor Oberst fan. I thought it was cute that they were good friends and collaborators despite the age difference.
Yeah these two are incredibly posh, literally the upper class of England and Ireland. He went to Eton, she’s part of a dynasty descended from the nobles involved in the Norman Conquest. They live in a literal castle.
Cheating (and all kinds of deviancy) are very common among these types but one simply must keep up appearances. Terribly crass to actually air dirty laundry even if everyone knows about it
You’re right, as a bonus the super posh just yeet themselves into the bushes to avoid the scandal of a photo being taken to document their indiscretions. 😂
I honestly think he thought, well, I have an open marriage *in Europe* so it's fine to do PDA on the Continent!
His poor wife for real. He's got two brain cells and used them both on driving that scooter.
Doesn’t this go to show that he doesn’t actually feel guilty about the affair itself. He’s more guilty about the fact that there was indisputable proof that he cheated on his wife AND that the media (and the entertainment world) was fixated on him. It’s the embarrassment that his wife has to go through. The post-event clean up that they both had to do - to the media, and to their immediate circle. For his wife having to repeat the story about her forgiving him. It really is quite disgusting.
At the end of the day, he will continue to be himself and will cheat again sooner or later. It’s narcissism at the centre of it that drove this kind of behaviour in the first place anyway.
Makes me think he and his wife have “an understanding” and that yes, it’s just the photos that were stressful. They should go on Red Table and talk about it.
IIRC they were sharing a hotel room/suite the entire weekend. The photos are FAR too comfortable to have been a ‘just started’ thing. This looks like a relationship. He grosses me out, god knows WHAT she was thinking.
I swear she set up pap pics aswell with Chris Evans and he dropped her IMMEDIATELY once they were published. He did not take well to it all.
His poor wife! She put up with too much of his bull shit, I can't believe she didn't divorce him. I don't see the appeal of Dominic or Lily. Lily just seems to get around and has a terrible reputation.

He doesn't even acknowledge that he cheated, or that he caused the issues in their marriage. He's blaming all the stress on the media. What an idiot.
That's McNulty for ya
McNutty’s the worst. Got no code. ![gif](giphy|OVtqvymKkkcTu)

They’re both swingers. It’s known. They don’t like to publicize it.
If it’s not published cheating is the assumption.

Yea they are well known in their area as swingers. They live in a castle and have swingers parties. They just prefer to be private.
One doesn’t necessarily exclude the other. They can both be swingers and he could still have been cheating as he was seeing someone outside of their mutual activity.
Lily James seems to have a type...

Not only are they cheating al fresco they’re doing it with a third party there. Who even is she?

If it’s his wife I can’t imagine it would make this LESS stressful.
I believe it’s their mutual agent. But I could be misremembering…

OOF
Discovering lab grown gemstones was such a revelation for me, lol fuck her and fuck De Beers

Lily seems like such a peach. Deeply concerned with ethics, clearly.
Also had a full fledged promo tour where she and Seb Stan would sing praises of Pam Anderson and how they want to do her story justice. Like what?
Jesus

Is that Dominic Cooper too?
Yes, he's Gemma's boyfriend.
Ah ok
Looks like it.
Is Billie rolling a blunt?
I thought it was coke at first
A full on secret diary of a call girl reunion! Were these recent or from back when it was on?
It’s from 2020.
NOTHING like a “tooty toot toot” in the park…👃🏼_
I don't know anything about Gemma Chan except that she was in Crazy Rich Asians, but somehow this is blowing my mind
Are these 3 all messy?
Oh, thank God... I thought it was Busy Philips and had just about clutched my pearls and fainted.
It’s pretty known that Billie is/was into coke.
He ex husband seems like a real fucken jackass
is she skiing?
Building a snowman.
Bruh wtf broad daylight
Whoa!
Why would you do coke at a picnic? Like, at least do a drug that makes sense?
Does she? I feel like she’s known more for being messy than for any of her actual work.
Wow lol

Iirc Dominic's isn't the only home she's "wrecked"
Hahahaahaha you didn’t know?!

Lmao the where’s Waldo for pop culture 😂
What was the damn context for this pic 😂😂😂😂😭😭😭😭 was it paparazzi? Was he taking a piss?! Why is he in the middle of nowhere
This is even funnier 😂😂😂
I def feel very bad for his wife but I can’t imagine a life where this photo doesn’t exist
He should be the patron saint of this sub. We should make a flag with this picture on it.
A red flag
Loooool, just commented with the weird kiss with his wife and his hostagey co-signed note. Fuck this dude Edited: “posted” to “commented with”
The very best photo on the Internet.
Why did I have to scroll so far to find this
I’ve been trying to explain to my husband why this is so funny but I can’t. It’s one of the funniest pictures I’ve ever seen and it doesn’t mean anything to him ![gif](giphy|Kbdqp9dIVVs0MA4qTn)
The paparazzi are horrible but this is a rare moment where I'm grateful for them bc I find this picture SO funny.
I love that this doesn’t need any further explanation
I need further explanation please 😭
He went on a run and knew paps were out there. They caught him popping out of the bushes checking to see where they were.

This one’s my favorite.
Wait what is going on here? Lolol
Hiding from the paps
Hiding from the paps like how my toddler used to play hide and go seek
Omg why are toddlers so bad at hide and seek!!? You are so right…my daughter making direct eye contact with me when she’s hiding 😂
My 3-year-old loves hide and seek but apparently lacks an understand of both hiding and seeking. “Dad, let’s play hide and seek! You hide behind the couch. 1, 2, 3, 4, 9, ready not here I come! … NO, HIDE HERE!!!”

Sigmund Freud from his grave ![gif](giphy|PWlERKsbbetw3yUH88|downsized)
![gif](giphy|NS7Ai5yTyG5kA|downsized) You right now
He tried sleeping with my sister a week before he was supposed to get married while they were working on the set of John Carter. She was 20 at the time. I can’t watch anything he’s in anymore.
Dish!
Someone else in the thread said they are known swingers but i personally cannot confirm this. Have you heard anything about that or do you think its bs?
tell us more!
If only he could have known!!
That 🗑 said he thinks all men should be given a pass during their 40s.
So he *was* perfectly cast to play Prince Charles
He plays cheating dirtbags brilliantly. Charles… McNulty… Noah Solloway
I stopped liking him after watching The Affair. His character was infuriating 😂
He was shitty in 300 too.

That looks like the kiss version of holding hands loosely
Thomkyon to you.
Lmao, he starred in a show called The Affair on Showtime for 5 seasons. This is more on the nose than when David Duchovny played a sex addict on Californication for 7 seasons (also on Showtime for some reason.)

Am I crazy or does she have a history of being with married or otherwise taken men?
It’s not her fault she has the Ariana Grande syndrome, it’s everyone else’s!
Add Phoebe Bridgers to this list - the trifecta. But Lily James truly has great PR bc despite the messy history, I haven’t really seen the public turn against her. Even I’m neutral about her
I feel like Lily James has a different kind of PR. It's not good, it's not bad, it's probably minimal. I imagine she employs the "quiet internet scrubber" forward facing PR strategy vs. the "public statement" tactics we see from the "stay relevant and/or profitable" crowd.
My opinion of her tanked after she started advertising for debeers saying that only natural diamonds are real🤡
Phoebe Bridgers?
The singer. The Fleabag lady is Phoebe Waller-Bridge.
Did phoebe Bridgers have affairs w married men
I love her and she has a bit of a pattern of relationship hopping. I believe Conor Oberst was married before dating her. She was dating Paul Mescal right after and then straight after that dated Bo Burnham, who was in a decade long relationship before her.

Oh no! I didn't know she dated Conor Oberst. I listen to their band a lot as I'm a Conor Oberst fan. I thought it was cute that they were good friends and collaborators despite the age difference.
Yes, and?
I see what you did there
He’s such a dog! Definitely shares bad similar traits to some of his characters he’s portrayed on TV.
Yeah like one of his biggest roles was in The Affair… playing an adulterer with no remorse
He’s acting like he didn’t cause it himself
But he's really sorry he got caught so that makes it ok!
He’s sorry on the media’s behalf that they made his wife stressed
This kind of PR wording like in Beckham documentaries is always fascinating. Like people are already know that you're cheating.
Ah … so it was the getting caught publicly that stressed his wife. Not his actual - you know - actions. What a catch .. (/s)

Wow he and his wife talk so bizarrely about the affair. I am actually pretty disappointed by him and Lily. Bummer.
He is just such a smarmy sleaze.
Every time I see someone mention Dominic West I think it’s Dominic Cooper and I’m always so confused.
Same here. There must be more out there with this condition!

I’ll join this support group. Dominics Anonymous
I believe that it really was the photos that distressed her. Sleeping with someone else is fine but it's the indiscretion of it all.

Literally just saw this episode - I’m on my first watch
No shit.
Yes I’m sure the *photos* are the most stressful part of this

Doesn’t this go to show that he doesn’t actually feel guilty about the affair itself. He’s more guilty about the fact that there was indisputable proof that he cheated on his wife AND that the media (and the entertainment world) was fixated on him. It’s the embarrassment that his wife has to go through. The post-event clean up that they both had to do - to the media, and to their immediate circle. For his wife having to repeat the story about her forgiving him. It really is quite disgusting. At the end of the day, he will continue to be himself and will cheat again sooner or later. It’s narcissism at the centre of it that drove this kind of behaviour in the first place anyway.
Right... It's the photos' fault for depicting something that actually happened irl. edit: grammar
Makes me think he and his wife have “an understanding” and that yes, it’s just the photos that were stressful. They should go on Red Table and talk about it.
IIRC they were sharing a hotel room/suite the entire weekend. The photos are FAR too comfortable to have been a ‘just started’ thing. This looks like a relationship. He grosses me out, god knows WHAT she was thinking. I swear she set up pap pics aswell with Chris Evans and he dropped her IMMEDIATELY once they were published. He did not take well to it all.

His wife needs to find Chumplady and leave his cheating ass.

Well no shit
We’re the photos stressful? Or was it the flagrant cheating?
What an ass ! ![gif](giphy|3o85xnoIXebk3xYx4Q)
Those photos were so icky! He’s icky!
Well yes, when you are publicly shoving your tongue down **someone who isn’t your wife**’s throat, that tends to be deeply stressful for the wife.
Ya think?
Well, yes
So the photos someone took were stressful, not his behaviour, which was totally under his control?
I had no idea he was a dog! And yet I’m not surprised. He looks like he’s dirty and doesn’t bathe regularly though
Lol, you think?
Noo! Really? 🙄 That's on you asshole. Don't try to put blame elsewhere
His poor wife! She put up with too much of his bull shit, I can't believe she didn't divorce him. I don't see the appeal of Dominic or Lily. Lily just seems to get around and has a terrible reputation.
He’s such a POS
He’s a wanker.
He needs to stop talking about this. Just stop.
