Adjoa Andoh, the 62-year-old stage and screen star, best known for her role as Lady Agatha Danbury in Netflix’s Bridgerton, has received the MBE at Windsor Castle.

Despite her impressive career, Andoh admitted she felt a sense of “imposter syndrome” compared with others recognised for the tangible social contributions they make across the country. “I feel great imposter syndrome because I like what I do and drama's the world I live in,” Andoh said. She expressed admiration for Prince William, highlighting his work supporting homelessness and young people. During their conversation, she discussed her involvement with St Mungo’s and efforts to help youngsters get the “best start in life.”

Reflecting on the MBE ceremony, Andoh said she felt privileged to be among people whose work benefits the wider community. “I think this event is a great time to celebrate the work that lots of people do for the benefit of others in this country. It's really impressive, so to be in and amongst their number, I feel very humbled and honoured,” she added.
