Fans are convinced this is Kate Middleton in an episode of The Crown.

The Crown recently dropped its fourth season of the show.

It follows the 1970s drawing to a close and Queen Elizabeth II, played by Olivia Colman, and her family are preoccupied with safeguarding the line of succession by securing an appropriate bride for Prince Charles.

Meanwhile, the nation is beginning to feel the impact of divisive policies introduced by Britain’s first female Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher (Gillian Anderson).

Charles’ romance with a young Lady Diana Spencer provides a much-needed fairytale to unite the British people, but behind closed doors the royal family is becoming increasingly divided.

Many fans of the show have already binged watched the entire season four.

Proving to be one of the most popular seasons yet, fans were left gobsmacked when Prince Edward (Angus Imrie) dropped the C-bomb on Charles in a brutal take-down.

Tobias Menzies makes up the cast in the role of Prince Philip, while Helena Bonham Carter is Princess Margaret and Erin Doherty plays Princess Anne.

The frowned-upon word has never been said on the drama before and fans flocked to Twitter to discuss it.

The vast majority seemed to enjoy the cheeky moment and praised the show for not shying away from the conflict within the royals.

One wrote: “Absolutely LIVING for the ep in #TheCrown in which Prince Edward says ‘impressively c**t’”.

Series 3 ended with Queen Elizabeth’s Silver Jubilee as Princess Margaret attempted to take her own life.
