Nicola Coughlan’s Emmys red carpet moment goes viral

If you’re a viewer of Bridgerton and especially Derry Girls, you know Coughlan is a damn delight on so very many levels.

Regardless, it seemed like Nicola, who also presented that night, had a lovely—and very relatable—experience otherwise. She even posted a picture from that viral shootus interruptus.
