Dominic West<\/a> “probably” better understood how the late Princess Diana felt after his “gossip incident” with Lily James.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Dominic West was involved in a ‘gossip incident’<\/p>\n
The ‘Crown’ actor was hit by scandal in October 2020 when paparazzi photographs of him kissing the ‘Pam and Tommy’ star while on holiday in Rome were published and he admitted it made him feel sorry for the high-profile women who have their every move scrutinised.<\/p>\n
Dominic – who has been married to Catherine FitzGerald since 2010 told The Times’ Saturday Review magazine: \u201cObviously, I had a gossip incident, badly timed when there was no news during Covid, so it ran and ran.\u201d<\/p>\n
Asked if the scrutiny had given him an understanding of how Diana felt, he said: \u201cIt probably did. But I think everyone understands what she went through. You see a film like Amy about Amy Winehouse \u2014 young, beautiful women are who they really go for.\u201d<\/p>\n
The 54-year-old actor plays Prince Charles in ‘The Crown’ and while none of the now-king’s friends would speak to him as part of his research into the role, a number of people who had met the royal over the years were happy to oblige.<\/p>\n
\nDominic said: \u201cNone of [his friends] would talk to me.<\/p>\n
\n“The reason they\u2019re friends is because of their discretion. But I did talk to a lot of people who had met Charles, like farmers, fence layers. I bought a dog off a woman who is on a Duchy of Cornwall farm. <\/p>\n
\n“The King has met more people than anyone in history except for his mum and dad. None of them had a bad word to say. Well, one did \u2014 it was very funny as well.\u201d <\/p>\n
\nHowever, his co-star Olivia Williams – who plays Camilla Parker Bowles, who is now Queen Camilla – thinks the royals approve of the show.<\/p>\n
\nDiscussing the on-screen wedding between her and Dominic’s characters, which was filmed at York Minster in place of Windsor Castle, where the couple actually wed, she said: \u201cI\u2019m going to give you a scoop.<\/p>\n
\n“The orchestra who played Handel\u2019s music in York Minster played at Charles and Camilla\u2019s wedding. <\/p>\n
\n“The orchestra\u2019s patron is Charles, so if they hated us I don\u2019t think they\u2019d have let them play.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
