The Sydney-born actress rose to fame in the US after her three-year stint on the TV series, The Royals. Park played Princess Eleanor on the show about a fictional British monarchy, with Elizabeth Hurley playing Queen Helena, controversial wife of the King of England. 

"I was just a young Aussie trying to make it in the acting world. And when I heard that Elizabeth was someone they were considering [for The Royals], I was completely overwhelmed by that," Park told 9Honey Celebrity in 2018.

"But I had no reason to be because Elizabeth is completely down to earth and one of us. She's kind of driven the ship. She's been wonderful."
