Some fans of actor Nicola Coughlan, have recently taken to social media to express their disbelief over finding out her real age. Coughlan, who has played teenage characters in relatively recent shows, is in fact 37 years old.
Coughlan plays character Penelope Featherington In “Bridgerton” (2020), who has been reported to be aged at around 17 or 18 years old. Coughlan also starred in U.K. coming-of-age comedy series “Derry Girls,” (2018) in which she played a high school student.
The conversation surrounding Coughlan’s age, and her ability to convincingly play a teenager, might’ve been recently reignited due to her Harper’s Bazaar cover story.
Other fans criticized some of the reaction to Coughlan’s age, arguing that society perceives 37 to be older than it is.
