Bridgerton star Nicola Coughlan recently took to IG to speak out against the author, the show, and the recent UK Supreme Court's unanimous ruling that a "woman" in equality legislation should be defined as referring to a "biological woman and biological sex."

Although she who must not be named is heavily involved in the upcoming 'Harry Potter' series, Warner Bros. is distancing itself from her views.
