ENTITY reports 5 things about Annabelle Wallis.

Annabelle Wallis’ popularity has spiked recently. If you don’t know who she is, you’re about to.

This British actress has made a name for herself. She’s best known for her role as Jane Seymour in the third season of the Showtime’s “The Tudors,” taking over the original cast member, Anita Briem in 2009.

She landed this part at just 23 years old. “I didn’t realize that it was this big network show,” she told InStyle. “I just arrived and mucked in and did my best [and] I think that initial ignorance really helped.”

However, this talented actress began  her career long before “The Tudors.” Some other Annabelle Wallis TV shows and movies include “Jericho,” “Diana: Last Days of a Princess” and “Body of Lies.”

But aside from being a rising actress, she’s also so much more. Here are five more fascinating things about the life of Annabelle Wallis.

1 She was born in England and raised in Portugal.

Annabelle Wallis, age 33, was born on September 25, 1984 in Oxford, England. She then moved to Lisbon, Portugal and attended the Saint Dominic’s International School.

Growing up, she enjoyed playing outdoors. She also participated in paintball and motocross with her brother, Francis Wallis, according to The Sun.

But even as a youngster, she felt driven to pursue acting.

2 Acting is in her blood.

Wallis is the maternal niece of Richard Harris, an Irish actor most famously known for his role as Albus Dumbledore in “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone” (2001) and “Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets” (2002).

She also has a first cousin named Jared Harris who has acted in big screen films like “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button” and “Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows.” On top of that, her brother makes a living in the movie industry working for Familia production company.

3 She’s also lied to Madonna.

Lying may be an overstatement.  But she did claim to have exaggerated a truth about speaking English, Portuguese, Spanish and French fluently.

The incident took place in 2011 when Madonna asked her to audition for a foreign role. She admitted to stumbling over a few lines claiming, “It soon became clear that I may have been exaggerating slightly when I wrote that I was fluent on my CV.”

4 She is a natural fashionista.

On the red carpet, Wallis loves dressing to impress. She’s been sporting products and apparel made by top designers including Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Prada, Dior, Valentino and Dolce and Gabbana.

Her impeccable style could possibly be influenced by her friendship with London-based designers Christopher Kane and George Hardinge.

5 She happens to be dating Chris Martin.

Wallis is currently making headlines as the new girlfriend of Coldplay’s lead singer Chris Martin. However, the hard-working actress has certainly made her own name in Hollywood, long before Martin entered her world in 2015, when they first got together, according to DailyMail.

And speaking of making a name for herself, look out for more of Wallis this summer. She’s playing a lead role on the big screen in Tom Cruise’s “The Mummy,” which premiers in Mexico City on June 5 at the Soumaya Museum.
