Coughlan – a brilliant actor – has been particularly unfortunate, in that her body is the talking point that will not leave her alone. Even at times when, as she pointed out, she is a size 10, she is still talked about as “plus-sized”. In some ways, it reminds me of Kate Winslet in the early days of her fame. The tone of the conversation is different; Winslet was subjected to the merciless misogyny and body fascism of 1990s media, while Coughlan is held up as a “body-positive role model” as part of a pushback against it. Yet both actors have faced a similar battle: wanting to make good work that they care about in their chosen art form, and finding that all anyone seems to want to talk about is their supposedly “atypical” bodies.
