Posting a gloomy, rain-soaked snapshot from outside her window, Kurylenko – best known for her role as a former Bond girl in 2008’s Quantum of Solace and for her role opposite Tom Cruise in 2013’s Oblivion — said she’d been feeling sick for some time.
“I’ve actually been ill for almost a week now. Fever and fatigue are my main symptoms,” she wrote. “Take care of yourself and do take this seriously!”
