The 41-year-old star was at the premiere of Scoop, which tells the story of Emily Maitlis’ 2019 car crash interview with Prince Andrew — played by Rufus Sewell.

Billie plays TV producer Sam McAlister who helped set up the interview.

She was joined at the Curzon Mayfair, London, by Gillian Anderson, who plays Maitlis, and Keeley Hawes who plays the prince’s former aide, Amanda Thirsk.

Scoop will be out on Netflix on Friday, April 5.

The star told Vogue this month: “I didn’t know anything about her and yet I knew everything about that interview.

“I was obsessed with it. I was obsessed with the whole Epstein/Maxwell story, even though that’s not what this is.

"I had spent hours reading and watching and getting furious.”

Last month we revealed Billie split from her rocker partner Johnny Lloyd after eight years.

The former Doctor Who star, 41, and the singer, 38, have a five-year-old daughter.

A source said: “The relationship ran its course.”

She was previously married to DJ Chris Evans, who is 17 years her senior, and actor-turned-political activist Laurence Fox, 45, with whom she has two sons.
