Fans Are Comparing Lily James & Dominic West's Romance to Another Celeb Scandal

Lily James and Dominic West are in the middle of a scandal right now after they were spotted kissing in public, even though he’s still married.

A source spoke out after the photos were released and said Dominic‘s wife, Catherine FitzGerald, was “shocked” to see the photos and thought they were “very much together” still.

Now, there are fans on Twitter comparing this new romance to another celebrity scandal.

Back in the summer of 2012, Kristen Stewart was spotted kissing her Snow White and the Huntsman director Rupert Sanders, who was married at the time. She was still in a relationship with Robert Pattinson and she released a public apology to him after the photos were everywhere.

Some fans are calling out anyone who is shaming Lily right now after they watched Kristen get torn apart in the media and receive the blame for that affair. Fans are hoping Lily won’t receive that same treatment.

Kristen Stewart Confirms One Major Piece of News About Her Affair with Rupert Sanders

In 2012, Kristen Stewart was seen kissing her Snow-White and the Huntsman director Rupert Sanders while she was in a highly publicized relationship with Robert Pattinson.

Now, she’s confirming that they never got intimate, they only kissed.

“I did not f–k him. This is like the most candid interview,” Kristen said on the Howard Stern Show on Tuesday (November 5).. “No, I didn’t f–k him.”

She was then asked why she didn’t shout this fact from the rooftops initially, and she responded, “Well, who’s going to believe me? It doesn’t even matter. It looked like… You know, you make out with a dude in public, it definitely looks like you did [have sex].” She added that the fling “wasn’t innocent.”

Kristen also added that she wasn’t put in the Snow-White sequel, The Huntsman: Winter’s War, due to the major scandal.

“We lived in a different time then, you know what I mean? I feel like the slut-shaming that went down was so absurd,” Kristen explained. “And they should’ve put me in that movie! It would’ve been better. Not to be a d*ck, but… They didn’t put me in that movie because I went through such a highly publicized scandal, and so they were like scared of touching that.”

“I wouldn’t say that I fell in love with the director,” Kristen added. “It was kind of a weird thing, but I definitely think that that movie… Ugh, it wasn’t that big of a deal, you know what I’m saying? The work is so much more important! It’s like, what do you care if I… I just thought that that movie actually — we could have made a great second one, and we could have done it in a functional and healthy way. We didn’t ultimately do that, and that’s okay ’cause I did other stuff and it’s fine, but yeah, that was weird.”

“That was a really hard period of my life,” Kristen continued. “I was really young. I didn’t really know how to deal with that. I made some mistakes. And honestly, it’s no one’s business. And, people get over shit like that, you know what I mean? It’s really not a big deal. Basically, what I’m saying is, the work to me genuinely was ignored in a really sort of frivolous, silly, petty way. For a group of adult people who were supposed to be running studios and making films? Honestly, the film industry in Hollywood is so fear-based.”

“I think they’re idiots, because if you take a little risk and make something good, people will watch it and like it and pay you,” she added.

In that same interview, Kristen also revealed if she ever wanted to marry Robert Pattinson.

Scarlett Johansson Faces Backlash for Upcoming Role as Transgender Man & Releases a Response

Scarlett Johansson has signed on to play a transgender man in the upcoming movie Rub & Tug and people are not happy with the casting choice.

The 33-year-old actress will play “Jean Marie Gill, a person assigned female at birth who succeeded in Pittsburgh’s 1970s and 1980s massage parlor and prostitution business by assuming the identity of a man, Dante ‘Tex’ Gill,” according to THR.

The movie will be directed by Rupert Sanders, who she worked with on Ghost in the Shell, another movie that faced casting controversy.

People on social media are calling out Scarlett and the filmmakers for casting a cisgender woman to play the role instead of a trans man.

Bustle reached out to Scarlett‘s rep for a comment and received the following response: “Tell them that they can be directed to Jeffrey Tambor, Jared Leto, and Felicity Huffman‘s reps for comment.”

Tambor, Leto, and Huffman all played transgender characters and received awards and acclaim for their work.
