Those criticising the actor questioned how he was able to share photos while the general public were not allowed.

One social media user commented: “We can’t take pics but [of course] celebrities can. Nothing against Jason (I adore him) but it’s not fair.”

Another said: “So they let the rich and famous film in there but us peasants can’t”, while one more added: “So wait… pics in here are prohibited yet somehow, although I love you [Momoa], you can have the room cleared out just for you and take group pics.

Even though the pictures haven’t been deleted from Momoa’s social media, he has since said sorry for his actions in another post.

Momoa said: “Just want to send my absolute admiration for the Italians and this beautiful country. [I also] want to send apologies for any disrespect. I love your culture and history.”
