“Killing Eve” star Jodie Comer is in hot water on Twitter.

The 27-year-old is facing “cancel” cries online after social-media users discovered that she’s possibly dating a Republican who supports Trump. This comes amid her vocal support of several progressive causes, such as Black Lives Matter and Pride.

Twitter sleuths linked the actress, who plays a queer woman on “Killing Eve,” to a man named James Burke after paparazzi photos surfaced of her sitting outdoors with a mystery man. A man by that name is a registered Republican. However, it’s not evidently clear how Burke’s name was discovered, or why some Twitter users are sure that the person Comer is allegedly dating is the same Burke they’ve discovered with right-leaning political affiliations.

Several people named James Burke exist, including an 83-year-old science historian.

The Post has reached out to Comer’s reps for comment.

In April, she revealed to British Vogue that she’s “very much” in love with someone, though she wouldn’t reveal with whom. Comer said that she’s dating a man and that the pairing was “fairly new.”

For some, even the idea of Comer dating a Trump supporter was a slap in the face. On Wednesday morning, the actress’s name was trending on Twitter, along and with the hashtag #JodieComerIsOverParty.

“It’s kinda disgusting that Jodie Comer gets to play this powerful queer woman with a love interest who’s a [woman of color] and then goes home to her republican boyfriend who supports a homophobic racist pedophile like that’s really f - - ked!,” wrote one fan on Twitter about the rumors.

“Jodie Comer actually scare me bc she’ll be the biggest advocate for gay/trans rights, anti racism and women’s rights but then date a man who believes in nothing of the sort. is she okay?,” posted another.

“i’m sorry but jodie posting about BLM on her (temporary) story for one day and playing WLW characters while having a racist/trump-supporting boyfriend is the definition of fake white allyship. it’s upsetting,” said @allnightsun.

Others defended the actress and were critical of the trend for not being based on confirmed facts.

“Honest to god, Twitter get a grip. Yesterday she was being adored, today Jodie Comer is ‘cancelled’ for dating a bloke called James Burke. No evidence that he’s the same James Burke, Trump supporter, but let’s not let that bother us?” said @vignemale2.

“ ’Cancelling’ Jodie Comer because her boyfriend (or supposed boyfriend) is a Republican – is basically supporting the opinion that women are only defined by what their partner believes in and does with their life and I’m not here for it,” posted @EmiliaShaw_.

“Holy shit not only is Jodie Comer dating a political person named James Burke she is committing necrophilia because he is DEAD,” joked one Twitter user, linking to a Wikipedia page for a person named James Burke who is deceased.
