Henry Ashton is relatively new to the industry, having only been in three television productions as of June this year. However, he has shown great talent in front of the camera, especially in “My Lady Jane“.
The actor has been chosen to play Lord Stan Dudley for the eight episodes that make up the first season of the Prime Video adaptation, which is based on the novel written by Cynthia Hand, Brodi Ashton and Jodi Meadows.
His character is one of the most important in the plot, as he is the older brother of Gifford and one of the sons of John Dudley, the Duke of Northumberland. Therefore, he has a lot of interaction with the main star, Emily Bader.
Who is Henry Ashton?
Henry Ashton has demonstrated quite a versatile talent in front of the camera, and although he is now known for his role as a Lord in My Lady Jane, he comes from the Outlander school, so his skills make sense.
The star who brings Stan Dudley to life in the Amazon adaptation is no stranger to period series, quite the opposite, as he previously appeared in Outlander as Sandy Hammond in two episodes.
The star graduated from the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland in 2022 and has even been awarded “The James Bridie Gold Medal” for the best performance in the BA Acting program.
Members of the art school often participate in various productions, and some of his roles have been Tommy in Parliament Square, the title role in Macbeth, Willy Loman in Death of a Salesman and Prokhor in Vassa.
In addition to pursuing his dream of being an actor, he has also shown his passion for music, as he has managed to perform on some stages and has shared his experience on social media, where he was also seen playing the guitar.
Henry Ashton’s love life
We regret to inform fans of My Lady Jane that Henry Ashton is not single; quite the opposite. The actor is dating model and singer Emily-Rose Best, who accompanied him to the series premiere.
They have shared multiple photos together of various moments on their social media accounts (@ohhenryashton and @emilyrosebest_), where they can be seen being very affectionate and traveling all over the world.
Henry Ashton’s filmography
Despite his career in the industry just starting to take off, the actor already has a busy schedule, as his talent has landed him several roles in major productions with big studios, such as BBC Studios.
On July 1st, one of his latest works will premiere, the television series A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder, which is an adaptation of the novel by Holly Jackson, one of her best-selling books worldwide.
The star will portray Max Hastings and will share the screen with other young but important figures in the entertainment world, such as Jackson Bews and Emma Myers, who is known for Wednesday.
