Star Wars actress, Daisy Ridley was forced to move after being spotted on Google Maps.
Invasion of privacy is a problem many actors face, it seems, after it was discovered that Daisy Ridley, the leading actress of Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens, was forced to move after getting her photo snapped on Google Street Viewe.
Daisy Ridley isn’t facing off against Stormtroopers but, this time she’s facing crazed fans.
According to The Sun, the 23-year-old actress had to move before the release of The Force Awakens in mid-December, but her outing on Google Maps didn’t help.

A source close to Ridley is quoted in the story, who confessed she had very little in terms of security from the onslaught of her newly discovered fans at her former home. “Daisy was a virtual nobody but has exploded into a new world and felt it was time for a change. She’s in a position to upgrade. The flat she lived in before opened up on to the streets with little more than a tiny metal gate.”
Ever since the release of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Ridley has become Hollywood’s new IT girl and developed a cult following. It is important to point out that it was just her second feature-length film in her acting career.
According to the Sun report, Ridley was moved from her home in Kilburn, North West London, to a nice home in Regent’s Park, which is apparently extremely expensive.
Nowadays, even if fans want to climb their way to see Ridley in her new home, I’m pretty sure she’s prepared. Especially after all of the training she’s done in preparation for the next Star Wars movie.
