According to a rep for Wainwright, “There is no validity to this speculation. They are currently working on a project together. Members of the cast and crew were all together.”
Biel, 37, has yet to speak out publicly regarding her husband’s interaction, but sources close to the couple tell PEOPLE that the pair are “working through” the issue.
A source close to Biel told PEOPLE that the pair — will “work through this. It was good that he apologized publicly but obviously, the real work he is doing is in private and hopefully this was just a bad drunken night of this type of behavior.”
“The video may look a way, but literally it was nothing. It was some friends, members of the team, crew and people like that. They all know each other and were hanging,” the source said. “Like come on, they’re on an open balcony in New Orleans and he’s famous. It was nothing.”
