The Crown’s Elizabeth Debicki appears to wear pyjama bottoms  for trip to the shop

She is set to portray the epitome of glamour in her role as Princess Diana on The Crown.

And Elizabeth Debicki went for a more casual look as she slipped into what appeared to be a pair of pyjama bottoms while popping out to the shops to buy some fruit near her home in North London. 

The Australian star, 32, who made her name with Tom Hiddleston in BBC hit The Night Manager, also made a political statement by wearing a T-shirt with the slogan ‘Abortion is healthcare’, as she clutched cartons of cherries. 

The actress wore her blonde locks in an updo for the outing while she also sported a pair of gold earrings. 

Elizabeth will take over from Emma Corrin as Diana in the Netflix drama, portraying the princess as her marriage to Prince Charles collapses amid acrimony. But at 6ft 3in, the star is five inches taller than Diana was.

The final two series of The Crown will cover the Royal Family’s history throughout the 1990s and into 2003, however it is not yet know which moments will be seen.

There are several poignant moments which could be used, including the Queen making a speech on her 40th anniversary of her accession in 1992, in which she called the year an ‘annus horriblis’.

She was referring to the breakdown of three of her children’s marriages; Prince Andrew, Princess Anne’s and Prince Charles’ divorce from Princess Diana.

Other notable events during the time period included a fire at Windsor Castle, her golden wedding anniversary in 1997, and the deaths of Princess Margaret, the Queen Mother and the Princess of Wales.

Imelda Staunton is taking over the role of Elizabeth II from Olivia Colman who won the Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actress in 2020 and 2021.

Also joining The Crown in series five is Lesley Manville, 64, who is set to star as Princess Margaret. Meanwhile Jonathan Pryce, 73, will take over the role of Prince Philip.

Series five of The Crown is due to premiere on Netflix in November.
