Georgia Tennant has stepped out publicly with her husband David after revealing she had received a string of threats to her life.<\/p>\n

As a result of being targeted in the terrifying ordeal, she reached out to the police in hopes they could help.<\/p>\n

The 40-year-old actress is best known for playing Detective Inspector Samantha Nixon\u2019s daughter Abigail in The Bill, Jenny in the Doctor Who<\/a> episode The Doctor\u2019s Daughter, and Lady Vivian in the show Merlin.<\/p>\n

She\u2019s also been married to Doctor Who star David since 2011<\/a>, with the couple first meeting on the set of the long-running BBC<\/a> series.<\/p>\n

Over the years, the pair have also been vocal supporters of the LGBTQ+ community<\/a> \u2013 specifically trans people.<\/p>\n

However, their advocacy has seen them come under fire at times<\/a>, with the actress recently detailing some of the horrific messages she\u2019s been sent by trolls on social media<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Putting on a united front amid the harassment, Georgia and David walked the carpet of the Bafta Scotland Awards.<\/p>\n

The spouses coordinated their outfits for the glam event, Georgia wearing a black sparkly gown with lace detailing down the sleeve, and David in a gem-encrusted blazer, complete, of course, with his kilt.<\/p>\n

David and Georgia – who wore her blonde locks in loose waves and accessorised with dazzling silver jewellery – were all smiles for cameras, posing with their arms around one another.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, behind the scenes, they’ve had a lot to contend with.<\/p>\n

Last week, Georgia posted screenshots of messages on her Instagram page. Among the DMs were comments telling her to \u2018go back to the street where you belong\u2019, and \u2018go die\u2019.<\/p>\n

While she didn\u2019t share any additional comment about the vile messages, she did tag the official Instagram account and the Metropolitan Police.<\/p>\n

In September, Georgia also called for Facebook and its boss, Mark Zuckerberg, to take action after she was sent a post that read: \u2018Whoever kills Georgia Tennant immediately will receive a reward from me.\u2019<\/p>\n

Posting a statement, she wrote: \u2018Just been sent this by a friend. Out of curiosity, Facebook, what would constitute a breach of community standards?\u2019<\/p>\n

She then shared a screenshot of a moderator\u2019s response, who ruled that it did not breach the platform\u2019s rules, so it didn\u2019t need to be taken down.<\/p>\n

The same account had also previously written chilling comments, including, \u2018Soon there will be an obituary to read of a certain person\u2019, and Georgia Tennant must be killed\u2019.<\/p>\n

The user went on to write: \u2018David Tennant and I are meant for each other, we both belong together, and I will do everything to make David Tennant and I together.\u2019<\/p>\n

Georgia has received plenty of public support after exposing the trolls, with Sophie Ellis-Bextor commenting on her last post: ‘Wow I\u2019m so sorry that\u2019s horrendous. Police matter I\u2019d say? Xx sending love xx’<\/p>\n

‘What in the actual hell?!’, added Carrie Hope Fletcher.<\/p>\n

David and Georgia share five children, including Wilfred, who identifies as non-binary and uses they\/them pronouns.<\/p>\n

While they haven\u2019t publicly spoken about having a non-binary child, the couple use they\/them pronouns when referring to their middle child.<\/p>\n

They have both regularly shown their support for the community, both online and on red carpets, too.<\/p>\n

Georgia has shared photos of the whole family wearing rainbow colours for Pride<\/a>. Meanwhile, in July 2023, David wore a T-shirt that said, \u2018Leave trans kids alone, you absolute freaks\u2019, to a promotional photoshoot for Amazon Prime series Good Omens<\/a>, and he’s regularly seen wearing Pride flag pin badges during interviews.<\/p>\n

What’s more, at last year\u2019s Baftas, Georgia, who has the trans flag in her Instagram profile picture, showed off a wrist tattoo that read: \u2018Trans rights are human rights.\u2019<\/p>\n

Metro has contacted representatives for Georgia Tennant for comment.<\/em><\/p>\n
