Killing Eve's Sandra Oh was one of the celebrities who attended Queen Elizabeth II's funeral at the Westminster Abbey on Monday, September 19, 2022. According to Metro UK, Sandra Oh, 51, was in attendance at the funeral as part of Canada’s delegation. For those who are unaware, the actor was born in Canada to South Korean immigrant parents.
The Canadian delegation included Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his wife Sophie Grégoire Trudeau, as well as former leaders and governors.
Not only did Canadian delegations attend the funeral, but so did world leaders and celebrities from all over the country, including US President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden, as well as television presenter Bear Grylls, who was among the over 2,000 guests.
Sandra Oh joined Queen Elizabeth II's funeral as Canadian delegation
Many social media users were perplexed to see Sandra Oh at Queen Elizabeth II's funeral, with many wondering why the Killing Eve actor was there.
As noted earlier, Sandra Oh joined the funeral as part of Canada's delegation. Oh was given the honor of joining the country's delegation in June 2022 after her incredible performance in the popular spy series Killing Eve.
She was also named Canada's second highest civilian for her "artistic career filled with memorable stage, television, and film roles in Canada and abroad." Queen Elizabeth II established this award in 1967 to recognise people "whose service shapes our society, whose innovations ignite our imaginations, and whose compassion unites our communities."
At the ceremony, Oh was joined by members of the Order of Canada, including renowned musician Gregory Charles and Olympic gold medalist swimmer Mark Tewksbury. The Governor-General, Mary Simon, who appointed Sandra Oh to the Order of Canada, was also present.
Oh walked in the long procession, which started around 11 a.m. on Monday, September 19, 2022, wearing a black dress with a Canadian badge, a black hat, and black heels.
The entire Canadian delegation group was led by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his wife Sophie. They were part of The Victoria Cross, The George Cross and the Orders of Chivalry, which included Officers of the Commonwealth who were nominated to take part in the service.
