Game Of Thrones star Aidan Gillen snaps back at Lorraine Kelly

He's known for his role as the malevolent Petyr Baelish, aka Littlefinger, in HBO's hit show Game Of Thrones.

And Aidan Gillen was put through quite the awkward interview while on Thursday's edition of Lorraine, as he snapped back at her when she called his partner Camille O'Sullivan his 'fiancée'.

The host, 59, asked the actor, 50, if he was looking to start a career in singing, as she said: 'So you're taking on a new role, you’re singing with your fiancée?'

But the Peaky Blinders star was quick to clap back, as he responded: 'She's not my fiancée, she's my partner…I'm not looking at a career in music.'


Left aghast by the faux-pas, Lorraine apologised to him as he said it was 'all good', before she then joked: 'So sorry Aidan, keep me in the loop next time!'

After the exchange, viewers took to Twitter to discuss how awkward it was to watch the interview, with some even hitting out at both Lorraine and her guest.

One person blasted Lorraine's attempt to laugh it off, as they said: 'Lorraine. It wasn't that funny. You said they was engaged and they wasn't. F****** hell get over it. (sic)'

Another criticised the Irish actor, as they wrote: 'Aidan Gillen is possibly one of the most awkward interviews I've ever seen. His PR needs to do some SERIOUS media training, or just not book him for TV interviews. I'm cringing.'

While one concurred: '#AidanGillen was a total p**** to @reallorraine there. She only said Fiance FFS. he looked at her like theyre actually days as from a breakup (sic).'

One viewer simple wrote: 'Wow that was an awkward interview #Lorraine'
