All my life I thought Gillian is American 😂😂😂😂😂

[@noneb4623]

She is but she likes to cosplay as an English person and because she’s talented and well liked, we ignore it. 🤣

[@Eclipse2582]

@@noneb4623 Nothing cosplay about it. Born in the US. Raised in London until the age of 11. Moved back to the US and has gone between the US and UK ever since. Lives in the UK now and has probably spent the majority of her life in the UK. She's Bi-Dialectal. If anything, her US accent is the fake one.

[@noneb4623]

@@Eclipse2582 I heard her recently say that she moved to the UK at six months when it’s known that she moved to Puerto Rico at six months and stayed there for two years. She claimed her first word was a Spanish word. She had American parents so her accent would have been American until she had been in school for a bit. So eight years later she returns to the US with her American parents and being surrounded by American accents she loses the North London accent. So after 23 year in North American the second she moves back to London in 2002 she starts speaking with a full on English accent that sounded awful and very fake. She’s learned how to make the sounds more convincingly after 20 years but the accent now sounds completely different. It can sound different from day to day while her American accent has stayed consistent. She claims she can’t help but speak with the English accent with English people and the American accent with American people but during The Crown promotion she tried to ditch the American accent completely. That didn’t go over too well, so she’s had to backtrack. Now she’s muddled and all over the place, sometimes even using the American accent with English people or she tries to sound in between the two accents. She doesn’t use a lot of Britishisms and when she does she doesn’t sound natural or convincing. She was asked about her favorite holiday food by an English kid interviewing her and she started to say biscuit and changed to cookie. I think she sounds more herself and less ridged with the American accent because it takes her less effort to form the words properly. I watched her current interviews back to back and her laugh is real and relaxed with the American accent and so very fake sounding with an English accent that it made uncomfortable. It actually sealed my beliefs further. She once said she felt like a complete idiot when she tried out speaking with the English accent to all the “yanks” at an awards show, so that further cements to me that it’s not so natural to her. If her soul feels American she should have stuck with what was more natural and kept the English accent for acting. All this while she’s promoting a movie about how being yourself is better than changing yourself to fit in with other people. 🤔
