After she married the Duke of York, she immediately transformed his life, bringing him love, understanding, sympathy and support for which he had always craved.

Their marriage was a rare union in which each complemented and enhanced the other. ↗

In 'A Royal Affair' I had to learn to act like a queen and learned Danish. It's so much different to act in another language. It's the nuances in the words. ↗

Towards the end of the Lord Chamberlain's era, when his hold was being loosened, private prosecutions began to happen. A member of staff at the Royal Court ordered to stop the play, and the police were brought in. ↗
