The 'Royals' actress said she is disappointed she is not a "private friend" of any of the British royal family and admitted she has a particular soft spot for the 66-year-old heir to the throne, reported Female First.
"I've had the honour of meeting some members of the royal family at various events but as a private friend, sadly not. I've met Prince Charles a couple of times because I'm a patron of one of his charities and I have to say I'm a huge fan of his.
"I've always voted him the best dressed man in the United Kingdom, if not the world. His tailoring is impeccable. Phenomenal," Hurley said.
"I think all little girls dream of being princesses. And I remember, as a child, I used to do an awful lot of play acting. Well, I was always a star and usually a royal one. My little brother would be a page boy.
"So, right from then, I've had it in the back of my mind that I'd be a very good queen. Obviously when this part came along, it was a slam dunk," she said.
