Age, Instagram and playing Prince William

The Crown is back for its sixth and final season, and we’re so ready for another series of jolly good royal drama.

The hit Netflix show dramatices the life Queen Elizabeth II, her family and the political and personal events that shaped her reign.

This series, we’re also set to see the royal love story between Kate Middleton, played by Meg Bellamy and Prince William, played by Ed McVey, and we can’t wait.

So, what do we know about the actor playing young Prince Will? From his relationship status to his Instagram and more, here is everything we know about The Crown’s Ed McVey. Thank us later!

How old is The Crown’s Ed McVey?

Ed, who is from Devon, is 24-years-old and plays Prince William when he was at St. Andrews University.

What is Ed McVey’s Instagram?

You can follow Ed on Instagram @ed_mcvey_, where he posts all about his acting work.

Is Ed McVey in a relationship?

We don’t know! Sorry folks. But, we do know that he is in an on-screen relationship with Meg Bellamy, who plays Kate Middleton, this season.

How did Ed McVey prepare to play Prince William?

In an interview with Cosmopolitan UK, Ed said: "He’s been documented from birth, so I was able to watch him grow up and really study him."

He shared that Prince William has a very specific voice, which he described as "that 2000s Etonian thing, where people try to dial down how much money they have." So, he worked with a movement and dialect coach to embody that.
