Reign's Clarissa (Finally) Explains it All

And Boland admits she had a strong reaction the first time she looked in the mirror after going through the hair and makeup process, saying, "I think the first reaction was a sad one. I remember I felt sad for Clarissa, and it was also shocking to see it come together, especially with the wig and the bald cap on. I found it very impactful, definitely."

Clarissa's facial unveiling wasn't the only major shocker to go down as it was finally revealed that Catherine is her mother, a twist Boland calls "surprising and really interesting."

"Just on a personal level, I've known Megan Follows for 15 years, so I was like, 'Oh yay, I get to be your daughter! That's awesome,''' Boland says. "She and I have worked together a number of times. I think the show is very surprising...I thought that it was really interesting and added a lot of layers for my character and then, obviously, for Queen Catherine."
