Actress Elle Fanning in an interview harpist admitted that after her work in the TV series “The Great”, in which the artist played the role of Empress Catherine II, she wanted to become pregnant.
“I was obsessed with him. I had a bespoke navel made with a molded chest reaching the neck. The costume crew said my body would look very similar when I got pregnant… which was crazy. I like the way it looks. I wanted to get pregnant!” Fanning exclaimed.
Preparing for her role, the artist faced a mass of negative rumors about the empress. Fanning believes that such an attitude towards Catherine II could be termed an early form of “slut-shaming.” Fanning decided to “restore” the name of Catherine II – citing the Russian monarch as the engine of Russian education and progress in the field of women’s education and the preservation of scientific achievements.
“I still hear: “Catherine the Great? What a nuisance! But I don’t know how true. He takes risks, but he has to work on himself. She’s the strong she but not always the strongest,” Fanning said.
