Speaking to Vanity Fair last month, Peter Morgan The Crown creator spoke about Diana's character on the show and its portrayal of her bulimia.
"It just struck me that to not represent it would be to deny the former Princess of Wales some of the true complexity of her character,"
"Her own suffering made her have compassion for other people. And it was the compassion she showed for other people that was what made everyone love her.
"Everyone has vulnerabilities and frailties. And she wore hers on her sleeve—which, of course, is the opposite of royalty.
"You're representing an idea and an ideal, and you don't want there to be too much humanity in the way," Morgan said.
