But it was so necessary for her character because she felt that her hair and fashion were the way she could express herself in the confined and controlled environment in which she grew up. ”
Princess Anne joked about Doherty’s comments and wondered how the hell it could take so long to perfect her hairstyle saying, “Actually, I read an article the other day about The crown, the actress was talking about how long it took them to comb their hair like me. And I’m thinking, ‘How can you take so long?’ I mean it takes me 10 or 15 minutes. “
