Ivy Was Breastfed on Set of the Crown

Raised by a hardworking mom, Ivy often visited her mother on the set of "The Crown" at a few months old. Foy did not want to compromise her work and her role as a mother, so she had to breastfeed from the set. The actress said:

"I was a lunatic trying to breastfeed and be the Queen. It was an odd thing to do."

Ivy's mom pumped milk while her makeup was being done and had to memorize her lines on the side. However, she is grateful that her hard work is for Ivy and that her job allowed her to juggle roles as the Queen and a mom.

Living their days in a Wood Green North London terraced home, Ivy and Foy enjoy spending quality time together. She happily purchased books and wooly hats from Gap for her daughter.

Ivy Hated Mom's Haircut

As Ivy aged, she learned to have more likes and dislikes, including her mom's appearance. Foy was filming for "The Girl in the Spider's Web," where she brought to life the character Lisbeth Salander when her daughter expressed dislike for her haircut.

The role required the actress to have shorter jet-black hair, which did not sit well with Ivy. "Well, my daughter hated my haircut," the doting mom said. "Because apparently mommies are supposed to have long hair, not undercuts."

Ivy Rose Wasn't at School for a Very Long Time

Before COVID-19 happened, Ivy had a taste of what it was like to be at a regular school. However, when the pandemic started, she had to stay home again.

Now that the pandemic is manageable, Ivy has gone back to school physically, and according to her mother, it wasn't that difficult to see her off.

She Helped Her Mother to Deal With Breakdown

Ivy has helped her mother in more ways than she knows. After Foy took the lead in BBC's "Little Dorrit," she began having panic attacks and anxiety. "I felt overwhelmed," she said.

However, the arrival of Ivy made her understand that someone's life depended on her mental well-being. She said:

"Having her made me think, 'You need to sort your life out.' I just didn't have to live like that. It was unbearable. I was sick of myself."
