Netizens once bashed Jodie Comer for dating James Burke while playing a gay character in ‘Killing Eve’
Some four years back, Jodie Comer experienced a wide form of hatred from social media users after it was claimed that her boyfriend, James Burke, was a Republican.
People blamed her for dating a Trump supporter while representing the LGBTQ community on-screen and called it ‘not only wrong but disgusting.’ And the hatred people spit through social media left Jodie stunned.
Later, in an interview with InStyle, the Killing Eve actress addressed the matter, saying that she found it really shocking how people dragged her and her partner into such absurdity.
Rather than defending herself, she chooses not to give an explanation to people for the sake of her own mental health.
Ever since then, Jodie has remained a bit private about her relationship. She has hardly made a public appearance with her boyfriend in recent years, making people question if she is still together with her boyfriend or has separated. Meanwhile, it’s for sure that Jodie Comer is not married and doesn’t have a husband.
