Elisabeth, who plays June “Offred” Osborne and serves as an executive producer in the Hulu series, revealed on Jimmy Kimmel Live that after filming wrapped, she requested to keep a set of underwear that had been “specially designed” for her character — only to discover that another staff member had beaten her to it.

“Someone told me that someone already asked for it,” she said, later adding, “I don’t know who it was. I don’t wanna know.”

“I went to work with these people!” she said. “I don’t wanna know who wants my underwear!”

Host Jimmy was left visibly stunned at Elisabeth’s revelation, asking, “This is your custom underwear that you wore, and some creep on the staff requested it in writing?!”

Jimmy later added, “Oh my God, I hope it’s a woman…Someone made a formal request for your underwear in writing, in an email, that they shared with other people. We need to know who that person is.”

Fast forward to now, and Elisabeth has given us all an update on the situation. Speaking with People at the Season 6 premiere of The Handmaid’s Tale this week, Elisabeth revealed that the mystery crew member actually came forward and revealed his identity after seeing her Kimmel interview.

“He told me and it wasn’t exactly what we thought it was,” she said before going on to clarify that the person in question hadn’t “specifically” asked for her underwear.

“It’s not bad. It’s not as bad as we thought it was. He didn’t actually specifically ask for my underwear, which is good. So we’re good guys,” she said.
