Christian actress fired for 'homophobic' post hit with $350,000 in legal expenses after court loss - Washington ...

A Nigerian-born Christian actress who lost a plum British theater role over her "homophobic" views — and now faces a six-figure legal bill — said she has no intention of dropping her five-year-old court battle.

The Christian Legal Centre said that Seyi Omooba , 29, will challenge the “unjust ruling” of a U.K. employment appeal tribunal, which upheld a previous judgment stemming from her firing from a 2019 production of “The Color Purple” at Leicester’s Curve Theatre.

Ms. Omooba , 29, was ordered to pay at least £300,000 or about $350,000 in legal expenses in 2021 after she lost her complaint against the theater and her former agent, Global Artists.
