Fans Send Virtual Hugs To Regina King After The Co-Chair Was Noticeably Absent On The MET Gala Red Carpet!

We are here for you, Queen.

Despite being listed as one of the co-chairs, Regina King was noticeably absent on the red carpet at the 2022 Met Gala.

At this time, it is unclear if the Oscar-winning actress attended the star-studded event on Monday (May 2). However, no images of the star inside New York City's Metropolitan Museum of Art have surfaced.

Although fans were looking forward to seeing King make a grand entrance on Monday night, many were ultimately understanding of her choice to forgo the paparazzi-filled moment during this time in her life.

As you may know, King’s son Ian Alexander, Jr. sadly passed away in January 2022, just days after his 26th birthday.

In the spirit of love and good energy, join us in sending King a virtual hug. We are here for you, Queen!
