Ever since the show premiered on OWN in 2016, Lynn Whitfield has been masterfully playing the role of Lady Mae Greenleaf. theGrio caught up with the lovely lady to find out how she feels about the character she calls “resilient.”

“I love her spirit and I love that she really loves her family and absolutely has dedicated her life to them,” she says of Lady Mae. “She’s very witty in a very subtle kind of way. I love that. I like her style.” 

Lynn Whitfield admits that there have been some challenging parts of the role as well.

“Her need to control everything is a challenge. She’s not sensitive. She isn’t going to cry. She’s always strong,” she says. ” Also, I have such a great relationship with my own daughter, so to have such a complex relationship with Grace where we haven’t been getting along for years, is not something I can relate to.”

Season 5 of Greenleaf premieres in June.
