Hollywood star Carey Mulligan has said she struggled to enjoy her fame and became anxious about being pigeon-holed as "a British actress in a bonnet".
Mulligan won an Oscar nomination for her role as a schoolgirl in the film An Education, at the age of 24.
The Great Gatsby star, who is married to Mumford & Sons frontman Marcus Mumford, has spoken about her early success during an interview with Radio Times magazine.

"In retrospect I wish I'd had more fun with it, but I didn't," Mulligan said.
