Fancy seeing you here, Prince William! The Crown star Ed McVey mingles with fashion royalty at the Loewe Paris Fashion Week show in a quirky jumper and flared trousers

TV royalty Ed McVey mingled with fashion royalty at Paris Fashion Week on Friday as he attended the star-studded Loewe show.

The 24-year-old actor – who plays Prince William in The Crown season six – looked dapper as he sported a white knitted jumper with a quirky square neckline.

He teamed the garment with a pair of flared black trousers and patent black brogues.

Ed was in good company at the show as he joined the likes of Emily Ratajkowski and Emilia Clarke for the presentation. 

The budding actor has achieved a stratospheric rise to fame in recent years after starring in The Crown alongside Meg Bellamy, 21, who plays Kate Middleton.

Ed recently insisted he did not want Kate and William’s royal love story on the hit Netflix series to appear as ‘smooth sailing’.

The second half of the series, that was released in December 2023, focuses on William and Kate’s romance, which blossomed at St Andrews University in Scotland.

Meg mimicked the royal’s iconic strut down the catwalk for charity on the show.

Kate – who was an art history student at the time – walked onstage in a sheer dress and captured the Prince’s attention.

William watched his future wife from a £200 front-row seat and said: ‘Wow! Kate’s hot!’

Ed told The Telegraph of playing the royal and sharing his and Kate’s love story: ‘We didn’t want to make it a smooth journey, meeting and falling in love and then getting together.

‘We wanted it to be stagnated and weird, as relationships are, because there’s never smooth sailing, nothing is ever one thing.’

The actor added that he wanted to put ‘many bollards and emotional brick walls’ in the way of them getting together in the early stages.’

‘We want the audience to be like, ‘oh just say the right thing or just stop being so awkward with each other and just get together’ and then luckily you see that in the end,’ he added.

While Ed is in Paris for the fashion shows, the real Prince William spent Friday in Wrexham to mark St David’s Day.

The Prince of Wales, 41, chatted with pupils at All Saints’ Primary School to see their traditional ways of marking the holiday which celebrates the patron saint of Wales.

On his arrival at the school the children gave him a bouquet of flowers for his wife Kate as she continues to recover from surgery at home.

The Princess Of Wales, 42, will not carry out any official royal engagements until after Easter following abdominal surgery in January – and Kensington Palace insists she is still ‘doing well’.
