Erin is perhaps best known for playing Princess Anne in the hit show The Crown, which the Princess Royal herself jokily commented on following the release of season four. Following an interview where Erin said that Anne's hairstyle would sometimes take two hours to recreate, Anne told The Independent: "Actually I read an article the other day about The Crown, the actress was talking about how long it took them to do their hair like I did. And I’m thinking, ‘How could you possibly take that long?’ I mean it takes me ten or 15 minutes."
