Prince William and Kate Middleton actors share sweet moment during The Crown filming

Actors playing Prince William and Kate Middleton share a kiss in the rain as Netflix filming for the sixth season of The Crown continues.

New pictures show the actors head over heels in love in St Andrews, Scotland, during a downpour while returning from a grocery shop at Tesco.

They were filming for the final season of Netflix hit show The Crown.

William and Kate first met in 2001 while they were both students at the university, where their friendship eventually blossomed into a romance.

The final series of The Crown will focus on the early days of Kate and William's romance - with Ed McVey, 22, taking on the role of the future Head of State.

Love interest Kate will be played by 19-year-old newcomer Meg Bellamy.

In new pictures from the upcoming show, William can be seen gazing at Kate as she walks past him on set.

Their relationship continued to go from strength to strength following their time at university and William and Kate announced their engagement in 2010.

As they announced their union, the couple shared how their romance blossomed in the early 2000s.

"William wasn't there for quite a bit of the time initially, he wasn't there from Freshers' Week, so it did take a bit of time for us to get to know each other, but we did become very close friends from quite early on," Kate recalled.

It's been claimed that Kate's stint on a catwalk for a student fashion show, wearing a sheer dress, caught Prince William's attention and saw their friendship turn into something more romantic.

It's not known how much of Prince William and Kate's early relationship will feature on the sixth series of The Crown, with the show also focusing on the death of Princess Diana and the aftermath of her tragic passing.

It's been reported Dominic West's version of Prince Charles - now King Charles III - will be distraught after seeing the body of his former wife.

Sources claimed the actor playing the late Princess Diana was made to lay in a coffin and "play dead".

It's then reported Charles "enters the room and is in floods of tears" as the scene focuses on Charles' grief.

The episodes covering the aftermath of Diana's 1997 car crash in Paris will also show a fictional version of the heartbreaking moment young Prince William and Prince Harry walked behind their mother's coffin.
