Dominic West has opened up about working with the young actors portraying Harry and William in The Crown, who often show \u201canger\u201d towards their father throughout the series.<\/p>\n

The upcoming episodes, which will begin streaming from next week, explore the fate of the late Princess Diana<\/a> and how her death affected her family and those closest to her.<\/p>\n

Dominic West has revealed what it was like working with the actors portraying his sons in the royal drama, something he found \u201cvery poignant\u201d.<\/p>\n

He explained: \u201cThere were quite a lot of them and I found it quite easy because I\u2019ve got two boys the same age and, though they don\u2019t give me as hard a time as William was giving Charles this season, it was great actually. I felt on solid ground there, I knew what I was doing.<\/p>

\u201cI am a father of two boys that age, and I think I\u2019m always trying to fight Charles\u2019s corner and I\u2019m always trying to present him in a good light and I don\u2019t always succeed in doing that, but I think in the latter half of the season where William is giving him a really hard time and he\u2019s very angry with him and won\u2019t talk to him and he can\u2019t get through to him, to his son, I can understand how that feels.\u201d<\/p>\n

Season 6 of The Crown portrays the lives of Prince William and Harry as they come of age, and so two actors will play each as their younger and older selves.<\/p>\n

Rufus Kampa plays Prince William in Part 1 and Ed McVey plays him in Part 2, while Fflyn Edwards plays Prince Harry in Part 1 and Luther Ford portrays him in Part 2.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t, fortunately, have that with my boys yet, but it\u2019s another way in which Charles is being punished and I think all parents are punished eventually by their children,\u201d continued West.<\/p>\n
