As a model, she has been featured in ‘Vogue,’ ‘GQ,’ ‘InStyle Magazine,’ and ‘YOU,’ and appeared in the commercial campaigns for brands like Accessorize, Boden, and Lee Jeans. A Hampshire native, Egerton initially became interested in acting because her older sister was performing with a local youth theatre. She played Mary in Royal Shakespeare Company’s musical production of ‘The Secret Garden’ when she was seven years old. She did not enjoy her time at school, as she was bullied. As a result, she often truanted, choosing to go for modelling shoots instead. In 2001, she made her screen debut as the younger version of Morgaine in an episode of the television miniseries ‘The Mists of Avalon’. Her first cinematic appearance came in 2005 in the black comedy-drama film ‘Keeping Mum’. Recently, Egerton starred in the British-American drama film ‘Balance, Not Symmetry’.
