Harry Potter star Miriam Margolyes has once again addressed the backlash against JK Rowling for her anti-trans stance. Earlier this month the actress, 84, said Rowling had been 'unkind' towards the trans community and that it was 'fair enough' for people to criticise her. Now, in an interview with Sky News, Margolyes has stated that she thinks it was 'wrong' for Rowling to be excluded from the celebrations for Harry Potter: "You know, she created the whole thing." She went on to say: "She may be wrong about some things. And women's bodies are tremendously important - I love my body, even though it's fat and misshapen, and I wouldn't be a man for anything. But trans - who cares? Let's be kind, let's be inclusive. I think there's an awful lot of nonsense talked about it." #JKRowling #HarryPotter #MiriamMargolyes #LGBTQNews #TransNews
