Actress Meg Bellamy can be seen in a see-through mesh dress as she portrays the Princess of Wales in The Crown, in a moment often referred to as the one when William first became smitten with Kate.
First-look images released by Netflix, from part two of the final season of the glossy royal show, will introduce newcomers Ed McVey as Prince William, Bellamy as Kate Middleton and Luther Ford as Prince Harry.
The princess is depicted wearing a sheer black and blue dress in one of the images, with another showing a young William and Kate talking to one another.
As a university student, Kate Middleton first caught the attention of 19-year-old Prince William when she strode down the catwalk in the sheer dress for a charity fashion show.
In 2001, William and Kate lived a few doors apart at St Salvator’s hall of residence at St Andrews in Fife and became friendly, socialising together and playing tennis.
She captured his attention in March 2002 when the prince forked out £200 for a front-row seat for the fashion show, where Kate appeared in a see-through lace dress which revealed her black underwear.
In one of the new stills, released by Netflix, William is seen waving to crowds of onlookers with union jack flags.
Dominic West, who plays Prince Charles in the series, appears in another alongside Harry and William, who are pictured in ski gear at the bottom of a mountain.
The photo appears to be in reference to when the-then Prince of Wales was caught on a microphone in 2005 saying that the BBC’s royal correspondent, Nicholas Witchell, was an “awful” man.
