The Crown's Emma Corrin changes pronouns and reveals breast binding as they embark on 'new journey'

The Crown star Emma Corrin has changed their pronouns and revealed they are experimenting with breast-binding.

The 25-year-old actor – who played Princess Diana in the most recent series of the Netflix royal drama – hinted they are realigning their gender identity as they discussed embracing change and a new journey.

Corrin has changed the pronouns on the bio of their Instagram account to "she/they", implying they identify as both. The they pronoun is used by those who identify as non-binary.

They shared an image of their chest bound with boxing tape and captioned it: "Some time before I bought my first binder, messing around with @sirdavidsimon, we used boxing wrap, thanks for capturing this with me, very intimate, very new, very cool. It’s all a journey right. Lots of twists and turns and change and that’s ok! Embrace it."
