What happened to Cressida Bonas? Prince Harry’s ex has SURPRISING role ahead of wedding
CRESSIDA BONAS is continuing to carve a successful acting career for herself - and her latest role, for which she is earning positive reviews, is very surprising indeed.
Bonas is best-known to the wider public as a former girlfriend of Prince Harry, and is rumoured to be attending his wedding in May - but she has been working consistently over recent years to establish herself as a stage actress.
Her latest venture is the play The Dog Beneath The Skin, playing at London’s Jermyn Street Theatre.
In it, she plays a dog - jealous of its owner’s new fiancee - and spends the piece on all fours in a “fluffy brown jumpsuit”, according to WhatsOnStage.
It’s currently a few weeks into its short run, and will close next Saturday; March 31.

Reviews have unfortunately been a little less than favourable: only two stars out of five were awarded by industry paper The Stage, who criticised the “terribly clunky” jokes.
The Guardian gave three stars, picking out a “good performance” from Bonas, while WhatsOnStage gave two.
LondonTheatre1 were much more generous, giving a full five-star score.
“There were moments where I forgot it was an actor I was watching, so realistic were Bonas’ movements as the loveable Dog,” they said.

Bonas, 29, was announced to have parted amicably from Prince Harry back in 2014.
He, of course, is now engaged to Meghan Markle, with the two set to wed in May.
It was recently reported that Bonas will be a guest at the ceremony, though this has not been confirmed.
If true, she will be one of three alleged former lovers of Harry’s in attendance - along with Ellie Goulding and Chelsy Davy.
So far, however, she has remained tight-lipped on the nutials - saying: “I’d just rather not go into it.“I have to be really careful what I say because people like putting people into boxes and into stereotypes, especially in this country and no I don’t think that helps.
“I think you want to be a blank canvas as an actress but I’d rather not say anything, actually, if you don’t mind because it is kind of in my past and I am so focused on my acting.”
