Trivia : The film was heavily marketed with links to Princess Diana (who is a direct descendant of Cavendish), using her image in the trailers, and with a tagline (“There were three people in her marriage”) which is a play upon a quote attributed to the late Royal. Keira Knightley came out and denied the film had any links at all, stating that her character was interesting enough without any comparisons.
