Downton Abbey star Michelle Dockery shows off her raunchy side as she strips for steamy sex scenes in Good Behavior
Actress who played Lady Mary in the hit period drama is now part of a sexy US drama
MICHELLE Dockery has put Downton Abbey firmly behind her by showing off her raunchy side in sex scenes in US TV drama Good Behavior.
The actress has shed her clothes to film saucy sequences for the new show - and the racy footage is sure to shock fans of the period drama.
Michelle, 35, has moved on from the aristocratic Lady Mary Crawley by taking on a totally different role in her new TV project.
She plays plays down-on-her luck con-woman Letty Dobesh, and she has been filmed romping with hunky actor Todd Williams.
He plays Letty's ex-boyfriend Sean, and the pair raised temperatures with their red hot bedroom scenes.
Michelle is best known for playing the reserved and haughty Lady Mary in the ITV period drama, for which she was nominated for three Emmy Awards and a Golden Globe.
She also received Screen Actors Guild award nominations during her five years on the hit show.
But in December, 2015 tragedy hit when her fiance John Dineen died of cancer.
The actress skipped an appearance on US talk show The View to be by his side as he passed away.
She told mourners that the Irish financial PR, who was 34, had been “my friend, my hero, my king, my everything”.
She overhears the plot while hiding in a hotel room closet during a robbery-gone-wrong.
Constantly beset by problems, Letty has just left prison and is subject to an order of protection meaning she cannot see her son.
Attempting to stay out of trouble until they can reunite with the 10-year-old, who is being raised by her mother Estelle, Letty sees a substance-abuse counsellor for her crack addiction.
The miniseries is based on American author Blake Crouch’s novels.
