Lorraine Kelly slams fictional The Crown series six scenes

Lorraine reacts to ‘fictional’ scenes in The Crown

Lorraine Kelly has slammed the fictional scenes during series six of The Crown which depict how Prince William and Kate Middleton first met. The final four episodes of season six landed on the streaming giant’s site today after leaving it on a cliffhanger of Princess Diana’s death.

The series starts soon after Princess Diana’s funeral and covers Prince William’s relationship with Kate Middleton which began while the pair were at University together in St Andrews, Scotland. It will also cover Princess Margaret’s final days and the Queen’s Golden Jubilee.

When taking a look at some of the scenes within the series, Lorraine seemed unimpressed with some of the ways the young Prince and Kate had first met.

Lorraine introduced the topic and said: “It is one of the most talked about dramas ever made and today The Crown comes to an end releasing the final six episodes.

“Joining me now is Lucy Cave. Where does this chunk pick up?” to which she explained: “So we have had episodes one to four of series six which covered the last Summer of Diana’s life.

“It was a bit controversial because she appeared as a ghost and not many people warmed to that one, so this picks up after that and it is very much centred around William.

“So he is really the protagonist here, so Diana is gone and we don’t really see any more of her ghost.”

Lorraine noted: “Let’s have a look through and see whether or not it is true or made up. So we see William and Kate meet for the first time…”

After watching the clip, Lorraine became unsure of the scene and said: “So they met up, Kate and William infront of Princess Diana, when they were selling the Big Issue.

“And Carol Middleton is saying to Kate ‘There is a pound’ really? Seriously?” which left Lucy to laugh and add: “I think it is safe to say that bit is fiction.”

They also watched a clip of Kate and William’s “first kiss” which left Lorraine to joke: “Don’t you hate it when that happens?

“Your security guard interrupts you, full snog ‘I have to interrupt you sir’,” before Lucy concluded: “We don’t know the details of their first kiss.

“And I doubt very much they were interrupted to be told about the death of the Queen Mother so I think that one is fiction as well.”

Lorraine airs weekdays from 9am on ITV1 and ITVX.
