The Crown star Emma Corrin shares topless photo, details buying first chest binder
After seemingly coming out as queer, The Crown star Emma Corrin has detailed buying a chest binder for the first time in a series of topless photos.
Emma Corrin, known for depicting Princess Diana in Netflix’s series The Crown, detailed early experiences of chest binding with a topless photo and details of the “journey” around it.
“Some time before I bought my first binder … very intimate, very new, very cool,” Corrin, 25, posted on Instagram.
The makeshift binder, which intends to make a person’s chest appear flattened, was created using boxing wraps, Corrin explained along with black and white photos shot by David-Simon Dayan.
“Lots of twists and turns and change and that’s ok! Embrace it,” Corrin captioned.
The post comes weeks after the actor’s Instagram bio was edited to include the pronouns “she/they”, which appears to have since been deleted.
In the binding photos, Corrin also noted personally wearing items from LGBTQ and trans-owned business, gc2b, for similar apparel.
In April, the British actor appeared to come out as queer by posting a photo in a wedding dress captioned, “ur fave queer bride”.

The Golden Globe winner has previously confessed to another intimate experience – holding onto a woman’s clothes to “sniff.”
Spilling over a virtual, booze-filled game of Never Have I Ever with Jessica Alba, SNL alum Cecily Strong, Kelly Rowland and Baby2Baby co-founder Kelly Sawyer Patricof during the Vanity Fair Cocktail Hour Live, Corrin gulped at the prompt of “Never have I ever kept a partner’s item of clothing so I could sniff it.”
Admitting the partner had knowledge of Corrin’s desire, The Crown star responded, “Um, yeah, but I think I’m a very smell-oriented person, and I could do it with jumpers. Jumpers is a good one. Jumpers are sweaters. It’s the most comforting thing you could hug.”

Corrin has mostly been coy about dating and sexuality.
In October, when asked if there was a “boyfriend on the scene”, Corrin replied: “I’d rather navigate this on my own. It’s nicer to feel like I’m taking care of me.”
