Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu became everyone’s favorite boss after she played the headstrong, inflexible Sylvie Grateau on the Netflix show, Emily in Paris. She is often at loggerheads with the younger and American transfer, Emily Cooper (Lily Collins). Serious about her work and very open about her romantic flings, Sylvia dramatically resigned from her post in Season 2. Whether she’ll be back for a third season is not known, but it’s for certain that you will see much more of her on your TV screen. The marketing boss will soon assume the role of Monique Ritz for The Crown season 5. 

The acclaimed Netflix series, The Crown which chronicles the British royal family recently cast the actress in the role of Charles Ritz’s widow. He was the owner of the Paris hotel where Princess Diana and his son, Dodi Fayed, Mohammed Al Fayed’s son spent the night before the fateful car crash. Ritz would later sell his family hotel to Mohammed Al Fayed in 1979. 

The 58-year-old actress expressed her excitement after nabbing the role. “It was a very small thing but it was a lot of fun and I was so, so happy to be in it,” she said to UK’s Daily Mail.

She also praised the show for its impeccable writing. “Every episode is like a little film on its own. It’s crazily well written.”
