Earlier this year, popular Netflix drama The Crown found its Princess Diana!

Emma Corrin was finally unveiled as the actress portraying the much-loved princess, after much speculation about who might be taking on the part.

And now the TV show's fourth season has begun production, we've just had our first look at actors Josh O’Connor and Emma Corrin as they take on the roles of Prince and Princess of Wales.

Spotted on location in Spain over the weekend, the two stars were seen recreating the royal couple's 1983 41 day visit to Australia - which was their first with baby Prince William, who was nine-months-old at the time.

Wearing the same ensembles that Prince Charles and Diana wore when they visited Ayers Rock, Josh sported a khaki safari suit, while Emma wore People's Princess crisp white dress.

And we have to admit, the pair was the spitting image of the royals!

Peter Morgan, the creator behind the acclaimed Netflix series, says series four will show the young princess as she struggles to befriend her in-laws, The Queen and Prince Philip.
