Dame Helen Mirren is one of the world’s most celebrated actresses. Famous for her roles in The Queen and Gosford Park she is one of the few actresses to have won the ‘Triple Crown’ (an Oscar, a Tony and an Emmy).
Dame Helen asked to be photographed in the South of France in the dress she wore to the Oscars. She’s a fan of Mandarin Oriental resorts, where she feels the “natural world is combined with unrivalled luxury and impeccable service”.
Dame Helen’s charity of choice is St Vincent Meals on Wheels.
