House of the Dragon and Slow Horses actress Olivia Cooke has revealed a bout of shingles forced her to stop working for six months. The 32-year-old told GQ Hype the illness struck late last year after a run of back-to-back jobs left her burnt out. She spent the break at home in London cooking, reorganising and focusing on her mental health before returning in June.
