Riley Keough says filming sex scene with her real-life husband was 'really uncomfortable': 'It was so weird'

Riley Keough revealed that filming a sex scene with her real-life husband Ben Smith-Petersen for her new series "Daisy Jones & the Six" was unexpectedly "awkward." During a Thursday appearance on "Late Night With Seth Meyers," the 33-year-old actress explained that in one scene, her character Daisy "hooks up with a random person" and the show's producers told her that casting the Australian stuntman in the cameo role would be "so funny."  Meyers then asked Keough if simulating intercourse with her spouse on set was "more or less awkward." "It was more awkward," the Golden Globe nominee admitted.

She continued, "I think that they were thinking it would be less awkward. And then we got there, and they're like, 'This is really uncomfortable." "For one, I've never had pretend sex with my husband," Keough added with a laugh. "And for two, typically when you do these things, and it’s somebody coming in for the day, you’re like, ‘Hello, nice to meet you,' and you kind of get down to business and it’s very professional." "But with him … really, we were just giggling the whole time.

It was so weird." The "Logan Lucky" star said that the situation was even more awkward because her character was supposed to be "not really enjoying" the sexual encounter. "I really kept feeling inclined to be like, ‘In real life, it’s not like this,'" she said while laughing. "And then I was like, ‘I’ll just, you know, keep that to myself.'" Keough married Smith-Petersen in 2015 after the two met on the set of "Mad Max: Fury Road." Smith-Petersen revealed that the couple had secretly welcomed a daughter last year while speaking at the memorial for Keough's mother Lisa Marie Presley in January.
