Actress Adjoa Andoh has addressed her comments about the lack of diversity visible on the Buckingham Palace balcony following Saturday's Coronation coverage.
The Bridgerton star joined hosts Tom Bradby and Julie Etchingham during ITV's coverage of the Coronation, however, her comments relating to diversity resulted in something of an internet backlash.
The comments came following King Charles III's Coronation on Saturday May 6 in front of a total audience of 18.8 million people. "I was very struck by that," Andoh continued. She later added: "I am also looking at those younger generations and thinking, 'What are the nuances that they will inhabit when they grow?'"
