DOMINIC West’s wife Catherine FitzGerald has fled to her mum’s in Ireland as pals say she needs “space”.
She is said to be feeling “humiliated” after more pics of her husband and actress Lily James, 31, were revealed.
Catherine, 49, and The Affair actor Dominic, 51, put on a united front after the pair’s cheating on a secret holiday to Rome last week was made public.
But one pal said: “Catherine has tried her best to put on a brave face, but ultimately, seeing a second set of pictures made her feel even more humiliated.
“It’s been so hard for her and she shocked even herself with how dignified and graceful she has been throughout this.
“Taking herself away to her mother’s home is giving her time to properly think about everything and how they can work this out.”
Dominic confirmed yesterday that landscape gardener Catherine had travelled alone to Ireland.
He told The Mail Online: “She’s on a work trip. She’s gone by herself.”
Questioned about whether the pair were still together, The Wire star said: “Of course we are, very much together. Our relationship is fine.”
Catherine is expected to quarantine for a fortnight at her family’s ancestral home, Glin Castle, in Limerick.
