Sienna has faced a barrage of criticism over her relationship with the married father-of-four and is said to be upset at being labelled a ‘homewrecker’.
She has reportedly asked the 33-year-old oil heir to persuade estranged wife Rosetta to publicly admit that their marriage was over before they began dating.
‘Sienna is being portrayed as a femme fatale and fears for her career because Hollywood hates a home wrecker.
She hopes Balthazar can get Rosetta to put out a statement saying their marriage was already over,’ a source told the News of the World.
Friends close to the star have previously come to her defense, insisting that her relationship with the actor began several months after he had secretly split from 38-year-old Rosetta.
