Prince William and wife Kate’s university romance has been recreated for the sixth season of The Crown.
The pair, who met at St Andrews in 2001, are portrayed by actors Ed McVey and Meg Bellamy in the upcoming series of the hit Netflix show.

Filming has been underway in the royal couple’s former university home and scenes will depict the lovestruck duo strolling through rainy streets with shopping, before William gives Kate a peck on the cheek.

It’s reported that Kate famously caught the attention of William when she strode down the catwalk in a sheer dress at a charity fashion show.
However, it wasn’t all smooth sailing for the couple, with the pair briefly splitting up in 2007 after graduating from St Andrew’s in 2005. However, the pair rekindled their romance and went on to announce their engagement in 2010 and wed in April 2011.

The couple’s romance will feature in the next series of The Crown, which also features Princess Diana in the run up to her death in 1997 as it focuses on the late 1990s into the early 2000s.
Imelda Staunton is continuing the role of the Queen in the forthcoming series, with Dominic West and Elizabeth Debicki also set to reprise their roles as then-Prince Charles and Princess Diana.
