Prince William and Kate Middleton look smitten in loved-up behind the scenes snaps

The Prince and Princess of Wales have shared a series of behind-the-scenes photos from the Earthshot Prize awards - including one where they gaze into each other's eyes.

The loved-up snaps were posted on their Twitter and Instagram accounts and were taken during the awards ceremony, which took place during their trip to Boston last week.

In one of the black-and-white images, Prince William and Kate can be seen with their arms around each other as they smile while looking into each other's eyes.

While another snap shows a proud Kate applauding her husband after giving a speech at the event.

Another candid shot shows William deep in thought during the ceremony while another shows Kate taking to the stage to present one of the awards. The photos were taken by Getty Images royal photographer Chris Jackson.

The caption accompanying the images read: "Behind the scenes at the second annual #EarthshotPrize awards ceremony.

"Celebrating brilliant solutions and the inspiring people behind them!"

The release of the pictures come after royal sources say William was jetting back from the United States over the weekend to hold crisis talks with his father King Charles to respond to any allegations of racism or ill treatment made by Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in their Netflix series.

A dramatic first trailer for the six-part docuseries dropped in the middle of the Waleses' three-day trip to Boston, which culminated in the Earthshot Prize awards.

The first official teaser featured never before seen private photographs of the couple including happy snapshots of the Sussexes kissing while Meghan sits on a kitchen island, as newlyweds dancing with joy at their evening wedding do, cuddling in a photobooth and Meghan cradling her bump while pregnant.

Another shows the duchess pictured with her hand over her face as she sits cross legged on a chair holding a phone but it is not clear in this image whether she is crying.

Meanwhile, another bombshell trailer released yesterday sees Harry speaking of a "dirty game" where there is "leaking" and "planting of stories".

The trailer opens with Harry saying: "It's really hard to look back on it now and go 'What on earth happened?'"

As videos play of the couple receiving rapturous applause while conducting royal duties as well as announcing their engagement and their wedding in 2018, a news clip voiceover by Piers Morgan says: "She's becoming a royal rock star".

It cuts to Meghan saying "and then" before snapping her fingers with Harry adding: "Everything changed".

A photo of the royal family at the Trooping the Colour in 2019 is shown while Harry continues his narration, saying: "There's a hierarchy of the family, you know, there's leaking, but there's also planting of stories. It's a dirty game."

Meghan also talks about realising she wasn't going to be "protected".

Clips of paparazzi photographing the couple are then paralleled alongside old footage of Harry’s mother, Princess Diana being followed by the media as he adds: "The pain and suffering of women marrying into this institution, this feeding frenzy. I was terrified, I didn't want history to repeat itself.

"No one knows the full truth. We know the full truth."

The streaming giant confirmed volume one will launch on December 8 – exactly three months after the death of Harry’s grandmother Queen Elizabeth II – with the second volume to be released on December 15.
