The actress, who played the leading role in film Coda, has been nominated for a Bafta award.

Emilia is up for leading actress alongside Lady Gaga, Joanna Scanlan, and Tessa Thompson, after playing Ruby Rossi in the critically- acclaimed Apple TV+ comedy-drama, Coda.
The teen is also known for playing Kinsey Locke in the Netflix series Locke & Key and has also had roles in Doctor Who and Utopia.
But Coda isn't her first film role either, having played lead characters in films like Brimstone, Ghostland, and Horrible Histories.
And those who have seen the film may not know that Emilia has a famous dad.
She is the eldest child of Welsh singer and TV presenter Aled Jones.
When appearing on This Morning last month to promote her new film, Emilia was left red-faced when fellow guest, and ITV daytime show regular, Gyles Brandreth let slip a rather embarrassing secret about her famous family.
The 73-year-old revealed that Aled's wife, Claire Fossett, is a highly acclaimed circus performer.
"You know Aled Jones, but you may not know [Emilia’s] mum, Claire Fossett from the distinguished circus family," he said.
“She is a trapeze artist. They are neighbours of ours and in their front room they have a reinforced chandelier.
"So, Claire, on a good day, can actually swing from the chandelier."
