The season will be released in two parts: the first will delve into Diana's final years, leading up to the tragic night in Paris where she tragically passed away in a car accident, pursued recklessly by paparazzi. The second part will progress the narrative and focus on the new era for the Royals, highlighting Prince William's (played by Ed McVey) blossoming romance with Kate Middleton (played by Meg Bellamy), as well as Prince Charles' (played by Dominic West) second marriage to Camilla Parker Bowles (played by Olivia Williams).

What Will Happen in The Final Season of 'The Crown'?

The trailer portrays Diana, after her divorce from Charles, as she plunges into a state of despair due to the constant invasion of her privacy. She longs to escape with her new partner, Dodi Fayed (Khalid Abdalla). Additionally, the trailer includes scenes depicting the aftermath of her death, as the nation expresses their love for Diana while challenging the perceived "coldness" of the Royal Family.

Netflix's official synopsis of the series reads as follows:

During their first summer after their divorce, Prince Charles and Princess Diana embark on very different vacations with their sons. Diana finds herself being wooed by the Fayeds in the South of France, treating her young Princes to the extravagant experiences of luxury yachts, video games, and movie nights. On the other hand, Charles adheres to tradition and spends his time in Balmoral. These contrasting holidays become the subject of much discussion in the media, fueled by an eager paparazzi and members of the Royal press team.

As Diana grows tired of the glamorous yet exhausting yacht lifestyle and the relentless media scrutiny, she yearns to reunite with her sons, who are back in Balmoral. A detour to Paris ultimately leads to a climax, with the intensified and aggressive pursuit from the media serving as the backdrop to unfolding events.
