The Crown Season 6’s 8 Biggest Changes To The True Story

Netflix’s The Crown returned for season 6, part 1, on November 16 with some significant changes to the actual story it’s based on. Created by Peter Morgan, the series has thus far chronicled the lives of Queen Elizabeth II and the royal family from the early era of her reign to the death of Princess Diana in 1997. While the series has been praised for its accuracy in covering major events, it’s often criticized for its fictionalized adaptation and speculation about its historical figures’ behind-the-scenes drama and affairs. The Crown takes creative liberties in telling the story, with season 6 even adding a disclaimer for “fictional dramatization.”
