The star's revelation comes in spite of the fact that she previously admitted she was 'ashamed' when Damian first read the script for the rather racy show.

And it would seem the youngster is already comfortable on set, with Elizabeth revealing she helps her co-stars with their lines.  

She added: 'There are some lines which I have real problems with and my son, who is just 13, is running them with me. Some are just too rude. 

'He runs lines with all the cast. He is in love with Alex, who plays my daughter. He is in her trailer all day running lines. He loves it.'

In a previous interview with New! magazine, she said: 'I was ashamed when my 12-year-old son read it. I kept saying, “Don’t read that! But test me on my lines".'

Damian, meanwhile, has big ambitions to get behind the camera according to his superstar mother.

Speaking on ITV'S This Morning, she said: 'Last summer during his vacation from school he was on the film set and he loved every single second of it.

'He adores it. He really wants to do it… he’s not sure [whether to be in front or camera or behind] but he likes all of it.'
