The Emmy-winning Ted Lasso star hosted the London theatre awards on Sunday evening and earlier than the gong-giving obtained underway she walked the steps of the Royal Albert Corridor.

As she stopped for images, Waddingham confronted a snapper after listening to a remark about her legs, in line with a video posted by a fan account.

“Oh my God, you’d by no means say that to a person,” Waddingham stated. “Don’t be a dick in any other case I’ll transfer off. Don’t say ‘present me leg.’ No.”

The actress then shook her head and walked off. She continued to trade phrases with the photographer as she moved on, elevating her finger.
