Chatting to Financial Times, she denied that she lives in a glamorous household, saying: “In real life my mum was always a dungaree wearer, which probably rubbed off on me a lot. Work for her was the dressy time, not home, and I always thought that was kind of cool.” Chatting about her grandmother, Shirley, she added: “She always looked divine and still does. It was always one piece of really beautiful jewellery, a pearl necklace or pretty earrings. Always a flash of something – gold on her eyelids and a pop of colour.”

Actors are the most wonderful people in the world and the most fun.’ I thought, she’s absolutely right. And even if it’s very difficult, she’s going to have a great time.
