Makers of Netflix series The Crown have had to issue warnings to viewers as the depiction of Princess Diana 's bulimia is said to be 'so graphic'.
The new upcoming series of the royal drama will see Princess Diana, played by Emma Corrin, develop the eating disorder shortly after getting engaged to Prince Charles, who is portrayed by actor Josh O'Connor.
On the show, as Diana and Charles' marriage begins to fall apart, the Princess is seen violently vomiting in scenes.
The Sun reports that three of the 10 episodes of the series will carry viewer discretion warnings at the beginning to warn of the scenes.
The series will cover the years between 1979 and 1990.
The warning will reportedly read: "The following episodes includes scenes of an eating disorder which some viewers may find troubling. Viewer discretion is required."
A TV insider told the newspaper: "This is an unprecedented move by the creators of the drama. After all, it has previously featured scenes of war, a suicide bid, and will even include a terrorist attack in the new series.
"But they have never chosen to issue a warning over these potentially disturbing images. It’s a reflection of how explicit the imagery is and how sensitively they are treating it."
In the series, Princes Harry and William's mum Diana, who tragically died in a car crash in 1997, will be seen growing increasingly lonely and miserable after moving into Buckingham Palace ahead of her 1981 wedding to Charles.
Diana will also be seen gorging on food in troubling scenes before going into the bathroom to be sick and turning the taps on to cover the sound.
A Netflix spokesman told Mirror Online : "The Crown producers worked closely with the eating disorder charity, BEAT, to ensure that their portrayal of Princess Diana’s bulimia was both accurate to the disorder and sensitively handled, and when viewers watch the series on Netflix they will see warning cards at the beginning of the episodes giving details of how to seek help if required."
Actress Emma, 24, is sure to become a household name after paying the People's Princess in the Netfilx hit.
She won the huge role in the £100 million series less than a year after her university finals.
* The new series of The Crown lands on Netflix on November 15
