A moment we won’t forget! 👑

We were absolutely delighted to welcome Natalie Dormer to Hever Castle today to explore our Capturing a Queen: The Image of Anne Boleyn exhibition.

Best known for bringing Anne Boleyn to life in The Tudors, Natalie’s visit made for a particularly special moment beside the very coronation gown she wore in the series. Seeing the two together at Hever, Anne Boleyn’s childhood home, was something rather special! ✨
