Golda Rosheuvel: Bridgerton fame brings scary fan encounters

Golda Rosheuvel, the actress portraying Queen Charlotte in "Bridgerton," has opened up about the significant anxiety and loss of anonymity that fame has imposed. She described how the global success of the Netflix drama has altered her life, sometimes making travel a source of fear.

Rosheuvel recalled a particularly unsettling incident in Barcelona where she and her wife were chased by fans. This experience, which she labeled "really weird and scary," occurred while they were on holiday. She emphasized that these encounters have not been pleasant, contributing to her anxiety about being recognized in public.

She also noted the practical financial changes, like increased travel costs which she attributes to the need for greater privacy. Ferguson, familiar with the pressures of sudden fame from "Modern Family," shared that he too faced similar safety and financial challenges early in his career. He stressed the importance of advocating for oneself to afford the necessary measures for personal safety in the public eye.
