"Prince William and wife Kate have revealed they like to spend their Sunday evenings cuddled up on the sofa - watching Downton Abbey.
The 22-year-old star met the Royal newly-weds at a BAFTA event in Los Angeles, where she said they singled her out to speak to.
She said: 'I got to be presented to William and Kate, who was beautiful and lovely and very kind!
'I was flattered and privileged to be presented to the two of them at the BAFTA event in Los Angeles.
'They picked me out and spoke very highly of Downton Abbey, and it was lovely to hear. 'They told me that they were huge fans of the show.'
She told OK! magazine she was completely in awe of the Duke and Duchess.
'It wasn't exactly all in a day's work for me but it was for them, I'm sure,' she said. 'It felt surreal as an actress playing English aristocracy to meet them in LA. 'And as I am scared of flying it was already strange enough to be so far away, so I said to them: 'Can't we do this again in the UK?' 'It was wonderful. 'I was so starstruck, literally paralysed through the whole meeting.'
The show, which stars Dame Maggie Smith and Hugh Bonneville, is one of ITV’s most popular and has been praised by critics.
With over 11 million viewers in its first season, the series is the most successful period drama since Brideshead Revisited and is also one of the most expensive television programmes ever produced."
