Aubrey and Margaret on the red carpet
A video which surfaced on X from the red carpet saw Margaret glide her hand right down to the waist of Aubrey as they posed with the rest of the cast and crew for photographers. Aubrey also held Margaret close and proceeded to pat her on the butt and giggled.
Fan reactions
Reacting to the candid moment, a fan commented, “Margaret Qualley letting her intrusive thoughts win for a second there.” A second fan joked, “This makes more sense that Margaret and Jack (Antonoff, her husband) actually!” “Jack has no chance against Aubrey lol,” said a fan in jest. Another fan joked, “Never let your husband stop you from finding your wife.”
A fan also defended the casual moment and said, “Listen, I support the lesbians heavy but this is kinda just…normal girl friend behavior? Idk I wouldn’t think anything of it. Let’s not sexualize female friendship, ok?”
For the unversed, Margaret is married to songwriter and record producer, Jack Antonoff. The two got married in an intimate ceremony in 2023, which was attended by their close friends including Taylor Swift and Lana Del Rey.
Meanwhile, the Cannes red carpet appearance marked Aubrey’s first since her husband Jeff Baena died by suicide at age 47 in January. The actor received an enthusiastic response during the standing ovation of the film after the premiere.
