Here’s everything you need to know about the up-and-coming actress, Florence Hunt.
She started out acting in commercials
Born in England on February 2, 2007, Hunt was already building her acting résumé before landing the role of Hyacinth. Her love for performance was inspired by an encouraging teacher that led her to spend eight years with Nottingham’s Television Workshop. Her first acting job ever was an ad for Lloyds Bank. “The moment I stepped on set, I knew there was nothing I wanted to do more,” she said in an interview with Screen Daily. Hunt went on to appear in an ad for Apple’s iPhone 7 in 2016.
