There it is. With financial stability, watching your diet is so much easier. Therefore....... class matters.
Nobody is saying her class privilege outweighs her work/beauty/"talent" (i'm not a big believer on natural talent even being a thing but fuck it) but that it helps... Maybe just a little but it's there.
For an American casting director? It doesn't make a difference, I doubt they even asked her where she went to school. She went to uh ... Tring Park School for Performing Arts? Like maybe that's something impressive in Britain I don't know, but an American casting director is going to give one shit about that. That's not famous to anyone here.
Casting director has their own ass to cover, they have their own job to do, they're not going to be swayed by a schooling background.
First of all to even have the combination of specified good looks + acting/emoting ability + general likability on its own is effectively like winning a lottery. If you're born with all that it's probably more rare than being born into a relatively well earning family. That's not that rare at all, we all probably know at least one or more well off families. Not many of us know someone who is great looking + has fairly high end acting or singing ability.
