Alexander and Nicole shared a kiss 

Thanking his co-stars, including Nicole, Reese Witherspoon, Laura Dern, Zoe Kravitz and Shailene Woodley in his speech, Alexander said: "Thank you for making this boy feel like one of the girls." In the miniseries, Alexander played Nicole's physically abusive husband, Perry. Nicole, meanwhile, scooped up the award for Outstanding Best Actress for her role in the same show, and spoke about how the show "shone a light on domestic abuse". She said: "It is a complicated, insidious disease. It exists far more than we allow ourselves to know. It is filled with shame and secrecy. And by you acknowledging me with this award it shines a light on it even more."

She also thanked her family, adding: "I have a huge artistic family who supported me throughout all my ups and downs. You have been so loyal to me throughout my whole life thank you for that. I have two little girls — Sunnie and Faith. And my darling Keith who I asked to help me pursue this artistic path. And they have sacrificed so much for it. So this is yours. I just want my two little girls to have this on their shelf and to look at it and go, 'Every time my mumma didn't put me to bed it's because of this — (at least) I got something!'"
