“The Crown” star Emma Corrin says they don’t mind if people make mistakes about their pronouns and just want them to keep trying.
Corrin came out as queer and non-binary in 2021, shortly after landing their breakthrough role as Princess Diana on the Netflix series, choosing to refer to themselves with the pronouns “they/them”.
They recently opened up about their gender identity and admitted that it will take some time for people to get used to their pronouns.

Corrin shared in their interview with Telegraph that they were “lucky” to have come out at a time when people were more welcoming of performers who identified as LGBTQ+.
They admit that the inclusion of this time period allows them not to worry about the potential impact that coming out of the closet will have on their careers.

The actress has won numerous awards for her role in the historical drama “The Crown,” including the Golden Globe for Best Actress – Television Series Drama and the Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Drama Series.

Corrin’s view on getting their pronouns right comes after they publicly expressed their displeasure with awards shows that categorize nominees as male or female only.
They aired these views during an interview with the BBC’s “Today Programme” and shared their hopes for a time when award runners will introduce gender-neutral categories to encourage more inclusivity.
Corrin said, per Daily Mail, “I hope for a future where that happens. I don’t think that category is inclusive enough at the moment. It’s about everyone being able to feel acknowledged and represented.”
They added, “You can talk about awards and representation there, but really the conversation needs to be about having more representation in the material itself, in the content that we see for non-binary people, for queer people, for trans people, because I think it will changed a lot.

Corrin said that when LGBTQ+ people are not “seen honestly or properly,” it can be “very triggering” and “uncomfortable.” Their decision to publicly disclose their gender identity—which they believe does not mean a rejection of their femininity—is largely influenced by this.
They said, ‘I think it’s necessary for me to be open and honest about it because otherwise I’ll feel like I’ve been wronged.’
Despite the change in their gender identity, the actors said they still see themselves playing female roles in the future.,
Corrin continued, ‘I still want to play a woman, my experience on earth is a woman – and now it’s something very fluid.’
In the meantime, the thespian starred in a short film called “Lady Chatterley’s Lover” and will also appear in the FX limited series, “Retreat.”
