The 'Royals' actress has admitted her 15-year-old Damian, her son with American businessman Steve Bing, has started to take control of her social networking sites and tells her when and what to post on Instagram.

She explained: "Damian bosses me around non-stop about what I should be posting. He begs me daily for a public Instagram account but I'm making him wait until he's 16. However, he is going to start the definitive 'Royals' fan account this summer when we shoot season three."

And the 50-year-old actress is confident her boy will follow in her footsteps and carve out a career in showbusiness when he's older, though more likely behind the camera.

She told Britain's HELLO! magazine: "He loves showbusiness. I just want him to be happy and to have his creativity blossom. He's a bit of a despot when shooting his own mini-movies so he could end up behind the camera.

"I've always been like an adoring Italian mother and think my son's the bee's knees ...

"He loves being on 'The Royals' set. The crew are very patient with him and he feels very at home. We shoot over the summer holidays so he's there pretty much every day. He runs lines with all the actors, has a razor sharp memory and knows episodes backwards. He inundates writers with script ideas."
