Daisy stated, “You watch with bemusement really, because it’s interesting to see what narratives people write in. Usually, they’re quite harmless and when I’m spotted it’s normally just a lot of, ‘Oh, that’s Whatsherface?’ And I say, ‘It is.’”
Paul Mescal also spoke about his friendship with Daisy Edgar-Jones during an interview with Deadline, where he revealed that he made one of his best friends on the set of Normal People.
