The Crown star, 24, who joined the cast for the upcoming fourth series, is portraying Princess Diana but she has recalled a worrying hospital dash after filming in Spain

The Crown star Emma Corrin has revealed she was admitted to hospital after shooting a gruelling scene in a freezing cold swimming pool.

The 24-year-old actress, who plays Princess Diana in the Netflix show, was hospitalised with low oxygen levels after spending hours in the icy water.

Medics then wouldn’t let Emma, who is asthmatic, fly home after they assessed her condition.

“I’m asthmatic and had been ill for a while with a cough,” Emma told GLAMOUR UK.

“I had to film a scene in a freezing-cold swimming pool. It was the hardest scene to film because I was genuinely keeping myself alive treading water.

Filming The Crown wasn’t without its complications for Emma

“We were meant to be flying back that night to the UK and went past a hospital to get antibitotics.
