Unexpected success

Morgan stated in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter's TV that he could not have imagined this success for the series, especially after announcing its renewal for the next two seasons, saying, “I don't want you to think that I was bold enough to go somewhere and ask for a six-season show. I never imagined it, but it looks like it worked. "

He added that the coming seasons will not come close to any of the events taking place in the royal family these days, and said, "The sixth season will not bring us closer to this day, but will simply enable us to cover the same period in more detail." Therefore, the series will not include the relationship of Prince Harry and Megan Merkel, and the involvement of Prince Andrew in the Jeffrey Epstein scandal, and other events.
