Elisabeth Moss
Elisabeth Moss plays June, the lead role in The Handmaid's Tale, and while the show's dystopian location Gilead has a very strict set of rules, Elisabeth's real-life home gladly breaks all of them!
The star's one-bedroom apartment in New York has white bookshelves lining a whole wall, and each shelf is jam-packed with various reads - clearly indicating that reading is a favourite pastime of hers although June is banned from doing it in the show.
When prepping a virtual appearance, Elisabeth took a selfie with one of her beloved cats on her lap – a relaxing pastime we are sure would be frowned upon in the totalitarian state. Her traditional living room features a large floral rug, a glass coffee table and a large antique-looking chair.
