Killing Eve star Sandra Oh surprises fans as she attends the Queen’s funeral

Killing Eve fans were surprised when Sandra Oh attended the Queen’s state funeral on Monday.

The Golden Globe winner, 51, took part in the procession as part of the Canadian delegation and was noticed by onlookers as she paid her respects during the historic day.

Sandra, who co-stars with Jodie Comer, 29, in the hit series created by Phoebe Waller-Bridge, 37, joined Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his wife Sophie Gregoire Trudeau as members of the Order of Canada at today’s ceremonies.

One Twitter user said, “Canada sent Sandra Oh to the funeral, where was Jodie Comer’s invite?”

Another joked: ‘I demand the BBC put the cameras on Sandra Oh’, while another shared her disbelief by writing: ‘Sandra Oh at the Queen’s funeral is still one of the most random things that could ever happen .’

Twitter user Rachel said, “Sandra Oh attending the Queen’s funeral wasn’t the crossover I expected today” and another fan asked, “Sandra Oh what are you doing here?”

Rebecca Reid tweeted, “My favorite crazy thing so far is Sandra Oh being there,” as another viewer wrote: “Watching the funeral to see Sandra Oh stop. Not really.’

Sandra, also famous for her role in Grey’s Anatomy, wore an all-black outfit and hat as she made the solemn walk to London’s Westminster Abbey.

The A-list star wasn’t the only celebrity at Her Majesty’s funeral with adventurer Bear Grylls, 48, also in attendance, as well as Peep Show actor Sophie Winkleman, 42.

Bear attended today’s landmark events as a representative of the Scouts after being appointed chief scout in 2009.

The Queen, who was the patroness of the Scouting Association, also made him OBE in 2019.

Peep Show star Sophie is married to Lord Frederick Windsor, the son of the Queen’s cousin Prince Michael of Kent, and appeared next to him at the ceremony.

Last week, Sandra attended the Emmy Awards in Los Angeles after being nominated for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series.

She lost in the category to Euphoria star Zendaya, who won the award for the second time, becoming the youngest two-time Emmy actress winner at age 26.

In 2020, Zendaya made history when she took home the same award at the age of 24, making her the youngest woman ever to win the award.

For her performance of Eve, Sandra became the first actress of Asian descent to be nominated for the Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series.
