Georgia May King (born 18 November 1986) is a British actress.\n', '

King grew up in "a village in middle-of-nowhere England", the daughter of actor Jonathan Hyde and opera singer Isobel Buchanan. She went to Exeter School.[citation needed]\n', '

Although King grew up dreaming of being a director, she got her break into acting when she was eighteen and still working at a cheese shop, making her professional debut as Rosamond Oliver in Jane Eyre. She was nearly unable to play the role, however. A source stated that "a week before the day she began filming, King felt stomach pains, then had her appendix rupture. Her agent told the producers that she was unlikely to recover from the operation to remove it for at least ten days." Another actress was cast, but King recovered in time and was able to get the required medical clearance to film.\n', '
