Prince Harry’s time fact-checking The Crown has come to an end.
While the Duke of Sussex admitted to watching the royal drama earlier this year, he will not be tuning into the series’ final season — and he has damn good reason!
The first four episodes of Season 6 premiered on Netflix over the weekend. They followed the last days of Princess Diana‘s life — up to and including when she and her boyfriend Dodi Fayed died in a car crash in Paris in 1997.

While Harry and Meghan Markle have long been criticized for working with the streamer despite the controversial show, the insider insisted the couple has no involvement with the series, adding:
Insiders told the outlet the Archewell founders were “not consulted by anyone affiliated with the series or Netflix,” or sent storylines or advance episodes for approval or feedback. Similarly, William has reportedly told sources he doesn’t watch The Crown at all, so definitely not this season.
