Parkes left school early to begin filming The Spanish Princess which started principal photography on May 15, 2018. Parkes played Rosa, one of Catherine of Aragon’s trusted ladies-in-waiting who finds her way in the Tudor court in what show-runner Emma Frost described as a “really strong dynamic between three women who support each other.
