Focus co-stars Will Smith and Margot Robbie must feel like they have nothing to hide, because on Nov. 23 they posed for pictures together — wrapping their arms around one another — at a press call for the first time since a vicious report claimed that they had been having a home-wrecking affair.
Will and Margot got close together during a Focus press call in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Both casually dressed, the actors appeared to be having a great time, as smiles were plastered on their faces.
It was a pretty bold statement, considering that earlier in the month flirty photos of the two actors together were released along with a report from Star magazine that they were having an affair. Tackling the press together — and posing in a rather confident, cuddly manner — seems to suggest that neither Will nor Margot are afraid of the rumors. In fact, it’d be much more suspicious if they avoided each other at the press call altogether.
Since the cheating report went public on Nov. 6, both Will and Margot have done plenty to debunk it. First, the 23-year-old actress tweeted:
Been working non-stop, just catching my breath. There’s absolutely no truth to the ridiculous rumor in Star mag…

…It’s disappointing that goofing around on set could be taken so out of context.

A few days later, Will was spotted with his wife Jada Pinkett-Smith at his oldest son Trey’s birthday party, and everything looked totally normal, according to People. “They didn’t leave each other’s side,” a source told the mag. “They were even dancing at one point.”
So it’s no wonder Will and Margot looked so confident as just friends on Nov. 22!
