- The fourth season of the Netflix drama will cover the early days of Prince Charles and Princess Diana's marriage (opens in new tab).

Prince William (opens in new tab) is officially coming to The Crown (opens in new tab) in Season 4—at least as a baby.
New photos from behind-the-scenes of the hit Netflix drama's fourth season (opens in new tab) reveal the adorable infant actor playing the baby prince.
As ET Canada (opens in new tab) reports, the cast of the series was spotted filming in Spain, which is standing in for another part of the world in scenes depicting Prince Charles and Princess Diana’s (opens in new tab) 1983 royal tour of Australia. Diana famously changed royal tour protocol by insisting that her newborn son accompany her and Charles on the trip instead of staying behind in England as had previously been the custom.
The pictures in question (which you can see over at ET Canada's website (opens in new tab)) show baby Prince Will (opens in new tab) being carried onto the plane for the trip.

Season 4 of the royal drama will take place roughly between 1979 to 1990, meaning there's also a very good chance that we'll see Prince Harry (opens in new tab) (who was born in 1984) in the season as well.
