Bridgerton Star Nicola Coughlan has helped raise $2 million (£1.5 million) in funds for a Palestinian children’s charity.
The Irish actor launched an Instagram fundraiser for the Palestine Children’s Relief Fund (PCRF) before the release of part two of the hit Netflix series Bridgerton Season 3.
The campaign raised a total of 124K donations from social media users, including celebrities like Modern Family actor Nolan Gould, chart-topping singer Bebe Rexha, Love Island winner Amber Gill, broadcaster Vick Hope and US singer-songwriter Gracie Abrams.
“Thank you to actress and Bridgerton star Nicola Coughlan for your incredible support of PCRF and your fundraising efforts which totaled an astonishing $2M in support of our Urgent Gaza Relief and Recovery efforts,” wrote the charity in a social media post.
“Thank you for using your voice to inspire support for peace and impacting the lives of thousands of displaced children and families in dire need, providing them with humanitarian aid and medical relief.”
