Years after his movie, Ewan McGregor’s ex-partner Eve Mavrakis opened up about her experience watching him playing an intimate part in the flick with co-star Kelly Macdonald. Mavrakis once allegedly claimed that she had insecurities and was not okay with her then-husband McGregor’ performing intimate scenes in his movies. She said, 

“It was when I was pregnant with Clara, and Ewan was doing Trainspotting. He had a s-x scene with Kelly Macdonald, who is delightful. I was putting on all this weight, and she was a beautiful fresh flower. Maybe it was my hormones, but it took me until after the birth not to tremble when I saw her. That is the only time I have ever felt jealous.”

In a separate interview, the actor also expressed his opinions, saying,

“I have done quite a few s-x scenes in my career. But my wife has always been okay with them, except when she was pregnant with our first daughter, Clara, and I went off to do the sex scene in Trainspotting. Hormonally, she was all over the place. We had a massive fight about it. But that’s the only time it’s ever been an issue.”

Danny Boyle-directed Trainspotting earned critical acclaim and grossed $72M Movie at the box office. The movie featured Ewan McGregor, Ewen Bremner, Jonny Lee Miller, Kevin McKidd, Robert Carlyle, and Kelly Macdonald.
