She’s really helped me navigate it all.” Dynevor also revealed during the interview that her mother will be her plus one for the Bafta ceremony, where she is one of the five rising star nominees for 2024 after starring in Netflix finance psychological thriller Fair Play, about a relationship between co-workers. “They’re really scary but also very exciting because you’re in a room full of incredible people.” She also said that intimacy co-ordinators are “a game changer” following her starring role in Netflix’s Bridgerton, in which she plays Daphne who has racy scenes with the Duke of Hastings in the first season. “I see them as a stunt or dance co-ordinator, they are the same thing.” Dynevor said the money from the regency era show and her career taking off has allowed her to “buy the comfiest bed in the world” and a house.
