She is almost illegally delightful.

[@mek0411]

Exactly! Plus i just discovered yet ANOTHER show she's in called Big Mood (that's weirdly on Tubi as a tubi original) and she charmed me yet again with that cause her acting is on point in that as well!

[@JT-lp9ng]

Very much so! I love her!

[@outlawJosieFox]

She is absolutely delicious

[@jedigandhi]

Almost

[@rachelbrodeur2600]

[@louiebee6745]

Daenerys and Lady Featherington? Yes please!😁

[@charlotted1321]

What a refreshing 'celebrity', love when talented and warm people are the ones at the forefront. I'm from Derry and she is on a mural in our town and rightfully so

[@themanderrlynn]

Why am I super obsessed with this cutie pie I cannot stop loving her.

[@keisha2120]

Oh my gosh, they are so great together. Just so fast bouncing off each other. Adore her but it multiplied when this chemistry with Seth happened

[@HereForGoodVibes]

I kept refreshing this account for this video. I’m so excited.

[@alessandra7164]

I love her, she's such a funny and entertaining person and so good on every show she's on that I could listen to her for hours. And then she's beautiful with an incredible doll's face.

[@denisefromdc1796]

I couldn't love her more! And yes, being Irish is much better!!!!🍀💙

[@acecoycoy]

I saw Derry Girls when it first came out and continued with the seasons. Definitely one of my family’s favorite shows. When I saw she was in Bridgerton, I was so overcome with joy for her. My family is Irish and we are so proud of her as Irish representation. It’s her time to shine! 🤍

[@myrtlemcgovern6907]

Nicola is the most energetic, effervescent, lovely and extremely talented and caring human being. @SNL your ratings would skyrocket if.she hosted!

I love when the guests have Seth giggling like a school girl and I just adore Nicola. She knew she only had a limited amount of time on the show and crammed as many jokes in as she could. Get her on SNL stat.

[@pagesinked]

Brilliant and funny interview, Seth. Nicola is so charismatic and lovely. Please have her back when its possible.

[@temporaladvisor3958]

Absolutely adored Derry Girls and was sad when it ended. Just started watching Big Mood, and waiting for the possibility of Seize Them! making it's way across the pond since there are so many brilliant comedic actors in that film. And, of course, Bridgerton returning this week. Nicola is not only a delightful actor, but a delightful talk show guest.

[@julissalugo6487]

she is such a breath of fresh air

[@aprilramos6108]
