The sixth and final season of the Netflix favorite is anticipated to cover the late 1990s and early 2000s, with fans expecting coverage of the death ofPrincess Diana, at which pointPrince Williamwas 15 and his younger brother was 12.

WhileThe Crown’s creators have said they have no plans to catch up to modern times, it’s speculated that the show will also depict the beginning ofPrince Williamand Kate’s romance during their time together at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland.

Thepenultimate season, which seesImelda Stauntontake on the role ofQueen ElizabethalongsideJonathan Pryce’sPrince Philip, isset to be released on Nov. 9.

While season 5 was initially intended to be the series' curtain call, creators changed their minds as they reckoned with ending the story.

“As we started to discuss the storylines for series 5, it soon became clear that in order to do justice to the richness and complexity of the story we should go back to the original plan and do six seasons,” creator Peter Morgan said in July 2020. “To be clear, series 6 will not bring us any closer to present-day — it will simply enable us to cover the same period in greater detail.”
