Dearest gentle reader, Adjoa Andoh, who plays the iconic Lady Danbury in Bridgerton, had nothing gentle to say to the homophobes who are already judging the next season before even seeing it. The controversy revolves around Francesca’s gender-swapped romance in the Netflix series—an alteration that upset some fans of the original book.
“The show is about people finding love,” Andoh told Attitude Magazine. “So, two women find love. And?” the actress added, illustrating the point that there’s nothing to fuss over. So what if Francesca is a bisexual woman? It’s not the most shocking thing to happen in fiction.
