Who is Meg Bellamy? While the actor keeps a relatively low profile, Bazaar Arabia shares everything we uncovered about the young thespian about to make her Netflix debut.
Over the past couple of weeks, content of the newest actors starring as Kate Middleton and Prince William in season six of The Crown has been doing their rounds, with fans and students of St Andrews University gushing over their portrayal as the royal couple.
Since its premiere on November 4, 2016, the historical drama TV series has been the talk of the town, or rather the world. The popular series covers the reign of Queen Elizabeth II and was created and principally written by Peter Morgan and produced by Left Bank Pictures and Sony Pictures Television for Netflix.
Aside from the backlash and scrutiny the series received, the historical drama sky-rocketed to fame and what began with the coverage of Queen Elizabeth II’s marriage to Prince Philip in 1947 quickly became the Queen’s reign into the 21st century as well as Kate Middleton and Prince William’s relationship during their time studying at St Andrews University in 2001.
With all that said, fans of the series want to know who the mysterious actress playing Kate Middleton is…
