The young lovebirds, played by Meg Bellamy and Ed McVey, look into each other’s eyes and lean in for a hug in the footage shared by the streaming service.

The second half of series six of The Crown will be released on Netflix next month and is set several years after the end of the first half, which focuses on the final days of Princess Diana’s life.

As the first four episodes of series six are released, they could cause new fears for the royal family as they depict Princess Diana’s final days – including the moment her car entered the Pont de l’Alma tunnel, where it crashed in August 1997 crashed and killed her. .

While the first half of The Crown’s sixth series depicts a tragic and solemn time for the royal family, the second part will feature some happier times – including William and Kate’s falling in love at St Andrew’s University and Charles’ wedding and Camilla. day.

It will also show Prince William, a future king, coming of age in the public eye, as fans around the world go wild for the handsome young royal.

William and Kate met as students at Edinburgh University in 2001 and were close friends before beginning a romantic relationship.

Kate was studying art history, while William, who had initially enrolled in art history, had switched to geography.

Kate previously revealed that it took some time for the two to get to know each other.

“I think you said I went all red when I met you and kind of freaked out,” she told Prince William during their engagement interview in 2010. “(I was) very shy about meeting you.”

But as the couple spent more and more time together, they discovered they had a lot in common and enjoyed each other’s company.

The following year, Kate caught William’s attention in a different way when the princess, then twenty years old, walked confidently in front of her peers in a revealing sheer dress with a black bra and underwear for a fashion show titled ‘The Art of Seduction’ . ‘. (It had actually been a sheer skirt or mini dress worn as a top).

Prince William, who paid £200 for a table close to the catwalk, was said to have been left with his mouth open.

While Crown series 6 will set the royal couple’s love story in their college years, it will show William coming of age as a future king, having previously depicted his younger years.

The first part of the series shows the prince’s last days with his mother, Princess Diana, before her tragic death in a car crash in Paris.

William and Harry share an emotional final phone conversation with their mother, who called them from the Ritz Hotel in the French capital while they were staying with their father and grandparents in Balmoral.

After a long day in Paris, a frustrated Diana is finally able to speak to Prince William and Prince Harry, who are on holiday in Balmoral with their father.

During the phone call, William asks his mother if she is going to marry Dodi Fayed, but Diana says no.

He then explains that all the newspapers in Britain are reporting that the couple is engaged.

Diana answers: ‘I am emphatically not going to marry Dodi. Honestly, I can’t wait to get home.”

William then asks his mother if everything is okay. She nods and says, “I’m doing well. It’s just a little crazy here. I don’t really understand how I ended up here. Mom just needs to make some changes in her life, that’s all. But that’s not your problem, that’s mine.’

In a tender moment she tells her sons that she loves them, and they respond that they love her too. She promises to return home to see them the next evening.

However, it appears that this is one of the aspects of the portrayal of events that has been dramatized, as it does not fit with William and Harry’s accounts of their last telephone conversation with Diana.

Prince William and Prince Harry have had their last phone conversation with their mother just once.

During their speech in 2017, twenty years after Diana’s death, they discussed their last conversation with Diana while she was in Paris, and they were at Balmoral with their cousins.

Reflecting on the conversation, they expressed regret that they were desperate to get back out and play.

In the documentary Diana: Our Mother, Harry said: ‘I can’t necessarily remember what I said. But probably all I remember is, you know, I spent the rest of my life regretting how short the call was.

“And if I had known that was the last time I would speak to my mother – the things I would have said to her.”

The fact that Harry, who was 12 when his mother died, cannot remember the details of his last conversation with Diana suggests that it was not a conversation in which deep feelings were expressed, but rather an ordinary conversation, because neither Diana nor the princes knew. it would be their last conversation.
