Daisy Edgar-Jones has shared her overwhelming delight, after receiving a Golden Globe nomination earlier this week.
The actress, who plays Marianne in the hit show Normal People, was recognised in the Best Actress category for her work on the Irish based drama.
“Thank you so much Golden Globes for this nomination it truly means the world,” she began.
“I feel so lucky to have been given the opportunity to play a character as complex, spiky, deep and wonderful as Marianne.”
Sadly, Maynooth native Paul Mescal who plays Conall in the show missed out on a nomination himself – but paying tribute to her co-star, Daisy revealed she couldn’t be happier to have worked alongside him and form a friendship that will last a lifetime.
“It’s been one of the biggest privileges of my life to have worked across from Paul Mescal. I was blown away every day by his generosity and incredible talent,” she said.
“What a team we are, I’m so proud of the Normal People family, soon we will have shots of celebratory baby Guinness’ and I can’t wait!”
Sharing his unwavering support for Daisy, Paul Mescal posted a snap of the pair on set, he said, “Could not be prouder of you my friend. Again, unbelievably proud of this show and everyone who worked on it.”
The 78th Annual Golden Globes Awards will take place virtually on February 28th. Will you be tuning in?
