‘Derry Girls’ and ‘Bridgerton’ star Nicola Coughlan has spoken out against the “immense violation” of her privacy after seeing photos of herself on early dates with her partner.

A new interview revealed that Coughlan finds it overwhelming to receive this level of scrutiny of her personal life from her fans and the media.

Joining guest host Anna Daly to discuss is Sarina Bellisimo, Broadcaster and Entertainment Journalist, Fashion Expert and Journalist Laura Mullett, Saoirse Hanley, Features Writer at the Independent, Ian O’Doherty, Irish Independent Columnist and more.
