‘Bridgerton’ Actress Says She Was Attacked for the Second Time This Year

Bridgerton actress Genevieve Chenneour says she was assaulted in London for the second time this year.

The 27-year-old, who played Clara Livingston in the Netflix hit, said in a tearful Instagram video that she was walking to an audition when a man struck her near Oxford Circus in central London.

“Guys, literally five minutes before my audition, I was walking around the corner at Oxford Circus and this guy just looks at me, and targets me, and f---ing hits me,” she said, tearfully recounted in the video, filmed in a private space just above the audition room. She described being knocked “against the wall” with no warning and then having to walk straight into a professional setting, still trembling. “I had to come in, and I’m trying to gather myself, but I’m so shaken.”
