The fifth season of "The Crown" will not be released until November, but criticism is already pouring in on a daily basis. The palace worries about Charles III's reputation, after all, he's not supposed to come off very well. Will the fan of the series still give it a chance?
Will King Charles III. watch the new episodes of "The Crown"? The content of the upcoming fifth season of the Netflix series is currently causing a lot of fuss and criticism. Many of the royal family crises of the 1990s are portrayed, including the failed marriage between Charles and his first wife, Princess Diana, and his fling with Camilla Parker Bowles, now the Queen Consort.
According to royal expert Katie Nicholl, Charles has always "enjoyed" the previous seasons of "The Crown", as she reveals in an interview with "Entertainment Tonight". However, the new episodes would be "quite uncomfortable" for him and Camilla due to the content. "We don't know if the king will watch this series," said Nicholl.
As Charles actor Dominic West revealed a few days ago, the Netflix show also features the infamous 1993 "Tampon Gate" scandal "live" in her pants, with his luck he would be "born again as her tampon".
But the new scenes would also be "very, very uncomfortable" for Prince William and Prince Harry, after all, they would illuminate the death of their mother Diana. "This is a time they've had to live through so publicly. We heard Harry talk about the very real impact it had on his life and so did William."
"So for that to somehow be picked up again, even if it's done tastefully, is incredibly difficult for William and Harry," said Nicholl. However, she suspects that "even if the royals aren't watching, the people who work at the palace surely will be." The series has a great "curiosity factor" and "a lot of media hype".
