Freya Allan, who plays Princess Cirilla of Cintra in Netflix series The Witcher, has revealed the accident during season three filming that actually left her injured.

During a game of Most Likely To with Cosmopolitan UK the star was coy about what happened, but revealed she was "literally slapped" by a new cast member during production.

The 21-year-old explained, "I accidentally got slapped [in season three]. I really felt more for the person who did it because she obviously did not mean to. It was her first day, and she had a lot of pressure on her with this slap to get it right, and it ended with her really committing to it, I guess!"

She continued, "It was fine, I actually felt worse for her if anything. I just had some scratches which had to be added into the episode."

While Freya didn't name who accidentally slapped her, episode three of The Witcher season three - 'Reunion' - see a cut appear on her face after she frees a basilisk trapped in a small cage. She is then seen running through the market, when Mistress Laux-Antille grabs hold of her and slaps her.

Rochelle Rose (previously in Boxing Day) plays Laux-Antille, who was first announced as a new character by Netflix back in July 2022. She's described as a "powerful member of a particular group of women you don’t want to cross. Vivacious and self-confident, she’s sure to be a match for anyone she meets in The Witcher."

Hey, accidents happen!

The Witcher season 3 is now streaming on Netflix.
