Nicola Coughlan Jokes About Real Life After Wearing Ultra Plunging Dress at Palace Party

Nicola Coughlan has proven that the life of a celebrity is not all glitz and glamour. The “Bridgerton” star took to Instagram on 17 Sept. to give her followers a little insight into her week, ranging from a plush party at Kensington Palace wearing an ultra plunging designer gown to deep cleaning her bathroom. “Wednesday I was at a party in a Palace, Sunday I’m deep cleaning the bathroom and that’s just life baby!” she captioned the photo of her dressed up to the nines at the midweek event.

The actor attended the ATG Summer Party at the royal residence wearing a stunning black Rodarte dress. The design featured a deep, revealing neckline in cutout lace with tapered puff sleeves to balance out the flared bias cut, paired with Garrard earrings. Coughlan’s hair was styled in an updo by Sophie Sugarman with tousled sections pulled out at the front, while her makeup, by Ciara O Shea, was simply glowing with dewy skin and lined eyes. While she looked absolutely gorgeous, we imagine it was a stark contrast to scrubbing the bath.

In between Coughlan’s paradoxical events, she also attended the Vogue World: London 2023 extravaganza on 14 Sept. which kicked off London Fashion Week. Wearing a custom Harris Reed velvet black gown with silk off the shoulder neckline, she added a huge gold and black circular hat. Our thoughts are with whoever sat behind her at the event. She rubbed shoulders with the likes of Jodie Turner-Smith who wore a giant bow thong, and Winnie Harlow in a boob-window minidress.

Coughlan has wrapped filming “Bridgerton” season 3, and is set to star in new film “Seize Them” alongside “Sex Education”‘s Aimee Lou Wood premiering this October. While she’s no stranger to standout fashion moments (hello, Christopher Kane latex dress), we love that she stays grounded. Because, who doesn’t need to deep clean their bathroom of a weekend?
