Taking to Twitter, one person wrote: "BABY HARRY first to stand up for his mama Princess Diana, over a simple 'wanting to go shopping' #thecrown," while another person added: "The people who think we believe this scene happened… We're aware. It's just good to see that the show wrote something to show that Harry has always stuck up for his mom. And was the first one to do so."

How sweet was Prince Harry in this scene?

The Duke of Sussex has previously opened up about his opinion of The Crown. In an interview on The Late Late Show with James Corden, he said: "It’s fictional. But it’s loosely based on the truth. Of course, it’s not strictly accurate.

"I am way more comfortable with The Crown than I am seeing stories written about my family or my wife. [The Crown] is obviously fiction, take it how you will. But this is being reported on as fact because you’re supposedly news. I have a real issue with that." He added that it shows a depiction of what it is like "putting duty and service above family and everything else".
