Matilda Broadbridge is a fresh face on the party circuit. The 19-year-old actor in training is set to star as Pippa Middleton in the final series of The Crown. We spoke to her at a Reiss Atelier dinner party off The Mall, appropriately close to Buckingham Palace, last night. It was the first public event Broadbridge has attended since her role as Pippa Middleton in the Netflix drama was revealed.
Naturally we were keen to ask about her time on the show. But Netflix bosses have placed Broadbridge under "strict instructions" not to give any spoilers, the actor told us. Luckily good old Wikipedia or any online newspaper archive are there if you want to find out how it ends. This is Broadbridge's first professional role, so what got her the part? "It’s my first role ever. I’m at drama school at the moment. Actually, I was cast before drama school,” she said.
