The Crown star came out as queer and non-binary in 2021, but didn't expect the news to trigger such a backlash. In a new interview with Harper's Bazaar Emma explained they no longer read comments on social media posts because of the negativity. "The vitriol is worse than I anticipated. Even though we like to think we're in a progressive society, a lot of what we're seeing is increasingly a step back.". The 28-year-old, who uses the they/them pronouns, believes the backlash was a result some people feeling "afraid" of change.
