Andrew Morton, a royal writer who got to know Princess Diana well after writing her book “Diana: Her True Story,” was astounded by Elizabeth Debicki’s portrayal of the former Princess of Wales in Netflix’s “The Crown.” On November 11, 2022, he said on “Good Morning America,” “It left me breathless and it transported me back all those years.” I was shaken, although I don’t typically say this. Morton may have been frightened, but the rest of us are completely enthralled with Debicki’s performance.
The Australian actor received her first significant role as Jordan Baker in Baz Luhrmann’s “The Great Gatsby” production. She kept working all through those years, eventually landing Diana, possibly the part of a lifetime. Debicki co-stars in the turbulent breakdown of their marriage with Dominic West, who portrays her on-screen husband, Prince Charles. While Debicki is taking over for Emma Corin, who played Diana as a newlywed and aspiring royal, West is continuing Josh O’Connor’s legacy as a younger Charles. While Debicki is in an unpleasant relationship on-screen, her real-life connection with boyfriend Kristian Rasmussen is probably more fulfilling.

According to the Daily Mail, Elizabeth Debicki and her boyfriend Kristian Rasmussen went to see “The Crown” during its world premiere at the Theatre Royal Drury Lane in London. They had never walked a red carpet before. The two wore sleek black attire; Rasmussen wore a black suit and Debicki wore a floor-length black gown. Debicki and Rasmussen were seen holding hands while strolling across London before the movie’s premiere. They took a break from their shopping to engage in some light PDA.
Users have pointed out how much Rasmussen resembles Matt Smith, who previously played a younger Prince Philip in “The Crown,” proving that viewers are certainly thinking about the show. Rasmussen appears to check all the conditions, especially for fans of Netflix’s masterwork, but it can be difficult to learn more about him because of how enigmatic he is. He doesn’t use social media and appears to be relatively obscure, which could be a plus for Debicki, who is now on the rise.
Elizabeth Debicki keeps her relationship status private
Elizabeth Debicki, the shining star of “The Crown,” has a reputation for being secretive about her love life even before Kristian Rasmussen entered the picture. When asked about her personal status by The Guardian in October 2016, she stated, “Do I have a boyfriend/girlfriend? You’re being really liberal there. I’d prefer not to speak. I’m really reserved.” Debicki is not only reserved but also constantly on the road due to her job, which makes dating difficult. “You move around a lot as an actor. You never give up, “She spoke. And when who you believe you are changes constantly, that can be really taxing on your sense of self.
But for Debicki, secrecy is essential. In an interview with Vogue Australia in 2018, she emphasised that she only wanted to have her acting in the public eye and not any other aspect of herself. Debicki said, “I’ve always been a private person. “I feel like what I want to see in the world is my work, and I’ve always thought that me and the work are separate because that’s how I approach my work,” She claimed that while she has “respect” for those who can increase social media engagement, ultimately it isn’t her.
