In May 2023, following the coronation of King Charles III, Andoh stated that the day's proceedings had "gone from the rich diversity of the Abbey to a terribly white balcony".[15] 8,371 complaints were made to the media watchdog Ofcom, the highest number of complaints for a TV broadcast in 2023.[16][17] Andoh explained that "I was talking about the day and how marvellous it was and then looking at the balcony at the end and suddenly going: 'Oh it's so white!' because the day had been so mixed. I didn't mean to upset anybody."[18] In June 2023, Ofcom announced that they would not be taking action over the comment as it was "a personal observation".[17]
