Emma had the chance to wear replicas of many of Diana's famous outfits - including her huge wedding dress - and she managed to sneak a keepsake off set to remember the experience.

Speaking to ODEntertainment alongside her on-screen husband Josh O’Connor, who plays Prince Charles, Emma revealed: "So the scene we were doing was in Diana’s room or something, and there was just like loads of jewellery in a jewellery box and there was a gold chain.

"So I stole the gold chain, which I wear."

While Emma insisted it was a piece of costume jewellery and not an expensive piece, Josh joked the theft was an "absolute outrage".

He added: "It came from the V&A and she’s nicked it and everyone’s looking for it!"

However, he did admit to being tempted to steal something from set himself, but he managed to resist.

He said: "I liked the paperweight, I had this plan to steal it and then I thought, no, I’m a good Catholic boy, I won’t steal.

"Because Covid happened and we were a week away from ending filming I never got it."

Speaking about their dynamic both on and off set, Emma said: "Suddenly when you have to shout at each other it’s so weird!

"This is the ultimate love story because it’s not a simple kind of love. It’s actually a love that ultimately was maybe not meant to work."

Season four of The Crown premieres on Netflix on November 15, with seasons 1-3 available on now.
