Summary
- Stewart feels 'haunted' by Princess Diana's spirit.
- She can cry at any moment when thinking of Diana.
- Stewart felt like 'a shell' after filming Spencer.

Kristen Stewart continues to feel 'haunted' by the spirit of Princess Diana, with thoughts of the late royal often causing her to become emotional. Stewart, who portrayed Princess Diana in the 2021 film Spencer, shared that she can be moved to tears at any moment when reflecting on the princess. The experience of embodying Diana has left a lasting impact, making it difficult for Stewart to navigate cities like London and Paris without her presence being felt.
Initially, Stewart expressed reservations about being cast as the princess, questioning director Pablo Larrain's decision due to perceived differences between them. She specifically noted disparities in their physical appearance, such as eye color. Despite her concerns, Larrain persisted, seeing an overlap in their experiences as young, vulnerable figures thrust into global stardom.
Stewart also discussed her decision to live authentically and openly about her relationships, even when advised against it for career reasons. She felt it was crucial to avoid living a 'partial life' and to help create a more accepting world. By choosing to be open, Stewart hoped to 'unlock other people's doors.'
