“Bridgerton” star Simone Ashley should be an accountant
She is the main actress of the second “Bridgerton” season: In the Netflix series, Simone Ashley plays the self-confident Lady Kate Sharma, who conquers the heart of Bridgerton’s eldest son, Anthony. But if her parents had had their way, the 27-year-old would not have pursued a career as an actress. They saw Ashley in a more “serious” position, such as an accountant. The daughter of Indian immigrants told the British newspaper “The Sun”. “My parents were very protective of me. They’re first-generation immigrants. They came to this country from India, so they didn’t really have a life where they could choose what they wanted to be.” But Simone Ashley was able to assert herself and did acting training in London. About her role in the hit series “Bridgerton”, she revealed that wearing a corset was the main thing that bothered her at the beginning. “I was in a lot of pain with the corset. One time I think I pulled my shoulder. And I realized you can’t eat when you’re wearing a corset. On my first day of shooting I was like, ‘Okay, my first day as Lead lady, I need to eat a lot and have a lot of energy.’ So I ate this huge portion of salmon and then I threw up because I was wearing the corset.”
