Best one yet: Jemima in love with Diana in latest season of 'The Crown'

Goldsmith said she could not stop watching the show since it came out


Entertainment Desk November 16, 2020

The fourth installment The Crown hit Netflix on Saturday, November 15. The latest season is said to be the most exciting one as it divulges into the lives of Princess Diana and Prince Charles together. Director Benjamin Caron felt actor Emma Corrin was a perfect fit to play Princess Di in the show.

“There’s a massive arc for Diana in the season. From a young adult to a mother with two small children and a failing marriage to the future king of England. That’s a big space to occupy and Emma fills it,” says Caron to LA Times.

In season five, following Diana in the last years of her life, the part will be played by Elizabeth Debicki. “Emma effortlessly walked that line between strength and vulnerability.”

Caron's sentiments were shared by Diana's long-time friend, the former wife of PM Imran Khan, Jemima Goldsmith. Taking to Twitter, the author penned shared how she's impressed by Corrin’s portrayal of Diana. "Season four of The Crown, in my humble opinion, is the best yet," Goldsmith shared.

She went on to praise the actor who played the People's Princess in the Netflix hit. "Emma Corrin has captured all the magic of shy Di," she wrote. "Prepare to fall in love with Princess Diana all over again."
Goldsmith added how she can't stop binging on the show. "It only came out today and I’m on a deadline but that hasn’t stopped me from watching five episodes already."

Corrin experienced the vulnerability Diana had felt over the years as a Royal and later, a public figure. “I have come to know Diana better than anyone else, so my sympathy will always lie with her,” the starlet had said earlier. “But I also have a huge appreciation of Charles, and what they both had to endure in that marriage. I don’t think you can pick a side.”
