In a 2018 interview Maggie Gyllenhaal called her role in Secretary "the first time that I was given a role where I could express something about myself," describing taking the role of Lee as an opportunity to "explore something that's on the edge of what I know about myself but with the protection of fiction." She also gave director Steven Shainberg a lot of credit for his collaborative approach, describing him as "interested in me as an artist, was interested in what I was offering, and the way that shifted the story, as opposed to whatever he had imagined before I got there."
Lee is bent over his desk and Mr Grey instructs her to pull down her pantyhose and underwear. When viewed in profile we see the edge of a bodysuit across her thigh. It's unlikely to be a tan line because she was completely covered (hiding her scars) while her girlfriends were in bikinis.

The most original romantic comedy I've seen in YEARS! Highly recommended.
I may be a jaded old cynic but from time to time a contemporary movie knocks me off my seat. Recently there's been quite a few -'May', 'Sympathy For Mr. Vengeance' and 'Auto Focus' immediately spring to mind. 'Secretary' is another recent gem. This is the most original romantic comedy (very black, mind you) I've seen in YEARS! And for something which deals with a lifestyle alien to me (dominance and submission) it's surprisingly touching, and even managed to get me to shed a tear or two. I had previously enjoyed Maggie Gyllenhaal's supporting roles in 'Donnie Darko' and John Waters' 'Cecil B. Demented' (she played Raven, the make up artist - "Pain is pleasure! Slavery is freedom! Suicide for Satan!' remember?), but her performance here is first class and is guaranteed to turn her into a major cult figure if not an actual genuine STAR. I confess that I now have a major crush on her to boot (I'm sure I'm not alone!). James Spader is also very, very good. While I admired him appearing in Cronenberg's 'Crash' a few years ago most of his other film choices have been safe ones and to be honest I'd pretty much given up on him as an actor. But it just goes to show what an actor is capable of with an innovative script and a supportive director. It's really difficult imagining any other two actors playing these roles any better. In the supporting cast Jeremy Davies also surprised me. I'd been getting a bit tired of his crazy shtick in previous roles, especially his extremely irritating performance in 'The Million Dollar Hotel', but he did a much more subtle job in this movie, and it really worked for me. This is my first experience with director Steven Shainberg but I was impressed. I now want to try and see his previous movie, the Jim Thompson adaptation 'Hit Me'. I also look forward to his next movie, because if 'Secretary' is any indication of his talent then he's sure to come up with something very special. Highly recommend.

[Mr. Grey asks Lee why she cuts herself]
E. Edward Grey : Why do you cut yourself, Lee?
E. Edward Grey : Is it that sometimes the pain inside has to come to the surface and when you see evidence of the pain inside, you finally know you're really here? Then, when you watch the wound heal, it's comforting. Isn't it?

Prince Harry's legal battle with the U.K Home Office revealed a very real breakdown in his relationship with members of Queen Elizabeth II 's closest staff members after it came to light that the government's decision to reduce the prince's security was made in consultation with Buckingham Palace.
In a High Court hearing on Thursday to determine whether the prince could move forward with his lawsuit against the Home Office over security, it was revealed by his lawyer Shaheed Fatima that "There were significant tensions between the claimant [Prince Harry] and certain people" who were on the committee that made the decision over his protection.
Harry also said he should have been told that members of the queen's staff were included in the decision which he claims has left it unsafe for himself and his wife, Meghan Markle , to spend time in the U.K.
As to who on the queen's staff was involved in the process, and by extent with whom it is presumed Harry has had "significant tensions," Fatima identified Sir Edward Young, one of the people working closest to the monarch, among their number.
Sir Edward Young, 55, is the Queen Elizabeth II's Private Secretary and Keeper of The Queen's Archives.
Educated at Reading School, Young went on to work in finance during the 1990s before becoming a government advisor to Conservative party members.
In 2004, after working as head of corporate communications for broadcasting conglomerate Grenada Plc, Young received his first royal appointment, joining the queen's staff as her assistant private secretary based at Buckingham Palace in London.
For thirteen years, Young worked closely alongside the queen's private secretary, Lord Geidt, who retired in 2017.
Geidt was credited with much of the modernizing that the monarchy had done since the millennium and after his retirement from the royal household went on to advise Boris Johnson , before resigning in 2022.
Young was subsequently promoted to Geidt's vacant role as private secretary to the queen, the most senior position on her personal staff.
Young's promotion to private secretary came as Meghan Markle and Prince Harry were working towards their May 2018 wedding with the young couple identifying royal roles they were interested in pursuing.
Later, in her 2021 interview with Oprah Winfrey , Meghan spoke of the restrictiveness of royal life, with the royal household apparently unwilling to help her reach out to people and take part in the work she was seeking to do.
"One of the members of the family, she came over, and she said, 'Why don't you just lay low for a little while, because you are everywhere right now,'" Meghan explained.
"And I said, 'I've left the house twice in four months. I'm everywhere, but I am nowhere.' And from that standpoint, I continued to say to people, 'I know there's an obsession with how things look, but has anyone talked about how it feels? Because right now, I could not feel lonelier.'"
In his book Battle of Brothers , Robert Lacey writes that it was Young's lack of imagination in identifying an early role for Meghan that led to her unhappiness and ultimately the young duchess leaving royal life for the United States with Harry in tow.
"Young failed particularly when it comes to Meghan," Lacey wrote. "The queen had evidently noted the failure of Sir Edward Young and his staff to come up with a satisfactory role for the American newcomer's strongly defined talents."
When the Sussexes began to step away from royal life, Lacey said that a power struggle emerged between Buckingham Palace, headed by Young, and the duke and duchess' new staff.
"When it came to any Sussex matter," Lacey recounted, "the private secretary's authority was now being disputed by Sunshine Sachs channels through which Harry and Meghan had insisted on running their outreach activities."
When it came to the difficult negotiations between Harry, Prince Charles , Prince William and the queen about the Sussexes exit from royal life, Young is reported to have played a pivotal role as a go-between. It is during this period that relations between Young and the couple are reported to have become obviously strained.
During Meghan and Harry's interview with Winfrey, the couple expressed antipathy towards "The Firm," or royal household, with the duchess saying:
"My experience of the past four years is it's nothing like what it looks like...And I remember so often people within The Firm would say, 'Well, you can't do this because it'll look like that. You can't'."
Perhaps the biggest hint prior to information released as part of Thursday's High Court hearing, that Harry in particular had issues with members of the queen's closest staff, came in April 2022 in an interview given at the Invictus Games.
En route to the games in The Netherlands the royal, along with Meghan, had stopped at Windsor Castle to see the queen. Speaking with Today show host Hoda Kotb after the meeting he said:
"Being with [the queen], it was great. It was just so nice to see her. She's on great form. She's always got a great sense of humor with me and I'm just making sure that she's, you know, protected and got the right people around her."
This comment about having the "right people" around his grandmother was widely analyzed and led many to speculate that the prince felt that she might not have the right people in her inner circle, though Young remains at his post.
The High Court hearing regarding Harry's case with the Home Office over security is ongoing. However, it has been announced that the royal is seeking a second judicial review over claims that his offer to pay for security out of his own personal fortune was not passed on to the committee that decided to reduce his protection.
