Cressida Bonas earns rave reviews from critics

Cressida Bonas has been earning rave reviews for her role in ‘An Evening With Lucien Freud’.

The 26-year-old actress – the ex-girlfriend of Britain’s Prince Harry – stars in the role of Laura in the play, which opened in London on Tuesday night (05.26.15), and her performance has been widely praised by critics of the 65-minute show.

The play tells the story of a student’s relationship with acclaimed painter Lucian Freud and is currently being staged at the Leicester Square Theatre.

Since splitting from the 30-year-old prince, Cressida’s career as an actress and model has gathered pace, with the blonde beauty securing roles in a number of high-profile plays and movies, including a part alongside Cara Delevingne and Alicia Vikander in the upcoming period drama ‘Tulip Fever’.

However, Cressida recently confessed she has to be  »careful » of people trying to exploit her association with Prince Harry.

The actress admitted there’s a danger people will show an interest in her simply because of her fame, rather than her talent.

She said:  »I do have to be careful. But I have good intuition and great friends. They wouldn’t let me make such mistakes. »
