King Charles III Downfall: Palace Concerned About THIS In 'The Crown' New Season
Buckingham Palace is doing everything to protect the monarch's reputation.
Netflix confirmed that the upcoming fifth season of The Crown would arrive on November 9 and promised to release all 10 episodes all at once. Fans of the series have been waiting for the installment, as the series hinted at its most controversial parts yet since the next season would focus on King Charles III and Princess Diana's marriage.
With the release of the trailer over the weekend, The Telegraph reported that Buckingham Palace launched a massive move to protect the monarch's reputation once the "all-out war" of his marriage to the late Princess of Wales is finally dramatized.
According to the monarch's friend, the drama is exploitative, accusing the streaming giant of having "no qualms about mangling people's reputations."
"What people forget is that there are real human beings and real lives at the heart of this," the source added.
The aforesaid damage control has not been publicized yet, but the palace promised to protect King Charles at all costs.
All About "The Crown" Season 5
The series alarmed the palace as it is set to tackle the events that happened in the 1990s.
According to reports, it would cover the story of John Major's premiership and Tony Blair's life as his successor. It would also include the monarch's interview with Jonathan Dimbleby and the time he admitted that he cheated on Princess Diana with Camilla - now the Queen Consort.
Meanwhile, "The Crown" will reportedly dramatize Princess Diana's death in its planned sixth and last season.
In relation to this, the royal family is said to be preparing to deal with a new threat to the monarchy with regards to show business.
Columnist Clemmie Moodie, referring to the Netflix series, said that "The Crown" is expected to ultimately portray the King "as a sadistic, cheating monster."
"The Crown" got into the royal members' nerves - even Queen Elizabeth II - when season 2 of the series presented King Charles III having an unhappy time at Gordonstoun, a Scottish public school. The episode alleged that King Charles III was bullied by the other students, and Prince Philip was the one to be blamed for the incident.
With that, the late monarch reportedly frowned at the portrayal, and the "misinformation" continued from there.
