“I don’t have any big opinions about the Royal Family,” she shared. “That’s an advantage here, right?”

Elizabeth also brushes off questions of if she’s ever known or met any of the current British monarchy.

“No…maybe I never will now. Prince Harry seems fun,” she added, but then admits that she doesn’t follow royal news at all. “The Daily Mail makes me nauseous.”

Elizabeth continues, “But anyone who works on the show has a sense of how extremely difficult it is to be born into that [life].”

“The rules are sort of decided for you as well: less is more. Although, of course, Diana broke that rule. She broke the fourth wall, reaped the benefits, but the consequences came hard and heavy.”

Elizabeth does that that playing the Princess is a “huge gift to learn what I’ve learnt about this person. In so many ways, it’s a story of immense transformation – and triumph too. The public got to watch her evolve into an incredibly strong woman, trying to control a narrative that was the slipperiest thing ever.”

As for that Daily Mail coverage, Elizabeth says that “when you’re media fodder, what sells a newspaper is everything, but it was always personal for her. How could it not be?”

“I hope I’ve done something interesting for her,” she concludes. “That’s the ultimate goal.”

Just recently, Netflix opened up about their plans for Diana’s crash scene.
