Sambor, who is set to play Charles and Diana’s firstborn William, and Hawley who will be seen as Prince Harry, were snapped on set filming at the Surrey airfield, Dunsfold Aerodrome next to West and Debicki.

The two youngsters Sambor and Hawley were seen dressed in matching outfits at the sets; jeans, bomber jackets and white T-shirts.

Talking to The Sun about the casting, a source close to the production team said, “Netflix bosses wanted to make sure they had the right actors for the role given the young royals are so well known and were in the public eye so much at that age. They didn’t rush it and found Teddy and Timothee who they hope will be warmly received. They’re about to become household names in their own right.”

The two young princes were earlier briefly portrayed by Arran Tinker (William) and Lucas Barber Grant (Harry) in the show’s previous season.
