Josh O'Connor dug deep into research to play Prince Charles on, but stepping out of character came «easily.» While speaking with ET's Kevin Frazier and Nischelle Turner on the red carpet at Sunday's Emmy Awards, O'Connor opened up about saying goodbye to the character. «It happened quite easily, there was a whole global pandemic,» he said, matter-of-factly. O'Connor played the role of Charles for two seasons, which was a «long time» in his book. «I loved it,» he said.
