The Crown season six teased in Netflix trailer
Netflix’s hit historical drama The Crown has finally returned to screens with its eagerly-awaited sixth season.
This final season will be divided into two as it explores the dramatized depictions of real-life events including the tragic 1997 death of Princess Diana (played by Elizabeth Debicki).
While the latter part of the instalment will see Queen Elizabeth II’s (Imelda Staunton) 2002 Golden Jubilee and the marriage of Prince Charles (Dominic West) and Camilla Parker Bowles (Olivia Williams) in 2005.
In season three, Camilla was introduced as the center of a love triangle with the then-Prince of Wales and her husband, Andrew Parker Bowles (Andrew Buchan).
Although the Royal family disapproved of this relationship, season four saw Camilla become a love rival to a young Princess Diana (Emma Corrin).

During the series, the Queen was particularly against Charles’ infatuation with Camilla which continued after he and Diana relocated to their Highgrove House in Gloucestershire.
However, after a highly publicized dispute season five saw the Queen writing a letter to both Charles and Diana, requesting the termination of their marriage.
She stated: “A termination of your marriage is not only inevitable, but preferable.”
Following Diana’s death in 1997, Charles and Camilla tied the knot with a grand ceremony in 2005.

How long did it take for Queen Elizabeth to accept Camilla?
Speaking exclusively to Daily Express, author of Queen Victoria’s Descendants and historical expert Marlene Koenig stated: “That is something we don’t know for sure.
“I think the Queen and the Royal family learned a lot about how to handle relationships with the failure of Charles and Diana’s marriage.
“Camilla would not have been what was considered ‘suitable’ for a Royal bride because she wasn’t a virgin and neither was Charles.”
Marlene continued: “That said, you had Charles marry Diana, who was a virgin … I think the real issue was not Camilla herself.

“I think she [Queen Elizabeth II] had to not show great enthusiasm for Camila, although knowing that Camilla was far better suited to be Charles’ wife.”
Speaking on their relationship, the author added: “I think as time passed, the Queen saw how happy her son was and how her son changed.
“Doing engagements together, having similar interests, especially with horses, it evolved over time and embracing the fact that Camilla was very much in Charles’ life.
Marlene added “She [Camilla] was given the family order not that long after the wedding, just a couple of years, getting the garter before Charles became King was really in my view a big deal.
“The Order of the Garter which is the Highest Order of Chivalry in England, the Queen really opened it up wide, from Henry VII women were never given the Garter until Edward VII.
“Queen Victoria only got the Garter when she became Queen because she became Head of the Order.”
