For a show as beloved as Downton Abbey, one might expect some juicy behind-the-scenes drama or feuds among the cast. However, the reality is far from that! The actors behind the Crawley family and their loyal servants actually formed strong friendships that have lasted well beyond the show's final curtain.
Michelle Dockery (Lady Mary) and Laura Carmichael (Lady Edith) may have portrayed sisters who were often at odds on-screen, but off-screen, they became incredibly close friends.
Their bond grew so strong that Laura even served as a bridesmaid at Michelle’s wedding in 2023. This kind of deep connection highlights how, despite the intense rivalries their characters experienced on the show, the actresses found camaraderie and support in each other, making the filming process all the more special.
Hugh Bonneville (Robert Crawley) and Elizabeth McGovern (Cora Crawley) have shared the screen in multiple projects, but their friendship goes beyond just work.
