“I just want to be known for the work I do, not my personal life or wha...” — Eleanor Tomlinson Quote

I just want to be known for the work I do, not my personal life or what I'm wearing.

After filming the first season of 'Poldark,' I went with the cast on a trip to Iceland. We started off in Reykjavik and then went into the mountains and swam in naturally heated pools.

Now when people say, 'Oh, you're going to be such a big star!' I simply don't listen.

Well, Mom and Dad are both actors, and I've spent a lot of time watching my mom on stage and a lot of time on set with my dad, so it was very much a part of my growing up.

There is a lot of hype about drama school, I think.

When I had other things to deal with in my personal life, people were telling me to come and play for Scotland. So I'd come but then not play. I'd prefer people just to be honest with me and say whether they really want me there or just as a back-up.

The thing is, I live a very public life, and I have to keep things personal, or else I have no personal life. It's very difficult.

I generally don't talk about my personal life. It is one area that I like to keep to myself.

As a celebrity, you have to have some type of peace of your personal life.
