What Comes Next in The Crown Season 6 Part 2?
Discover the captivating future of The Crown Season 6 Part 2! Brace yourself for shocking Royal deaths and a thrilling time jump, as we delve into the intriguing unknown of the remaining six episodes
The Crown Season 6 Part 1 has depicted the tragic car accident in which Princess Diana lost her life, and Episode 4 concluded with her funeral. However, what can we expect in Part 2? Here is our speculation.
Ever since its debut on Netflix in 2016, Season 1 of The Crown has captivated viewers, immersing them in a captivating portrayal of 40 years of British history.
The Royal family has always had a turbulent history, but the intensity escalated significantly in the 1990s as depicted in Seasons 5 and 6 of The Crown.
With Episode 4, Aftermath, delving into the aftermath of Princess Diana's death, viewers are left wondering what comes next in The Crown Season 6 Part 2. Here's our speculation.
The Crown Season 6 Part 2: What will happen next?
The Crown Season 6 Part 2 will be comprised of 6 episodes, with the first 4 episodes in Part 1 covering before, during, and after Princess Diana’s death.
Netflix’s approach is puzzling, given the significant focus on Diana's tragic demise, both in the series and the actual events. However, as The Crown nears its final six episodes, anticipation builds regarding the future trajectory.
In The Crown Season 6 Part 2, there are three significant events expected to unfold.
Firstly, the aftermath of Diana's (Elizabeth Debicki) death will continue to have a profound impact on the monarchy in the subsequent weeks, months, and years. The initial part of Season 6 has already emphasized the transformation of the royal family in response to the tragedy, with Queen Elizabeth (Imelda Staunton) striving to display increased empathy towards the mourning public.
Prince Charles (Dominic West) is evidently deeply affected by this, as we witness in Episode 4 when Diana's ghost pays them a visit. As the weight of her presence lingers in their minds, the next crucial phase will be observing how Charles and Elizabeth adjust to a public whose perception of the Royals is shifting. Undoubtedly, Charles' relationship with Camilla Parker-Bowles (Olivia Williams) will play a significant role.
Key Royal deaths
The most significant moments in Royal history soon after the death of Princess Diana were the deaths of Princess Margaret and the Queen Mother, both occurring in 2002.
Netflix
Margaret's (Lesley Manville) prominent presence in the first 4 episodes of The Crown Season 6 Part 2 paves the way for her death to assume a substantial role.
The series could revert to its initial approach of focusing on Queen Elizabeth and delve into her profound sorrow, encompassing both the loss of her sister and her mother. Additionally, this storyline could delve into her marriage to Prince Phillip, portrayed by Jonathan Pryce.
Working on the assumption that Margaret’s death will be featured, The Crown Season 6 Part 2 will be jumping at least 5 years forward in time.
Another time jump
There are reports indicating that Kate and Pippa Middleton will appear in The Crown Season 6 Part 2. As a result, there may be a discernible time leap at some point.
The Crown is familiar with time jumps, as Seasons 1 to 2 and Seasons 3 to 4 focused on different decades. However, Season 6 takes it a step further by spanning at least two decades on its own. Notably, Prince William and Kate Middleton's relationship began in 2001, but truly blossomed in 2002. This aligns with the show's existing exploration of Princess Margaret and the Queen Mother's deaths, hinting at the possibility of delving deeper into William and Kate's relationship.
With Pippa Middleton's introduction, it becomes evident that The Crown Season 6 Part 2 will likely extend towards the mid-2000s. Both William and Kate completed their studies at St. Andrews University in 2005, experienced a brief separation in 2007, and officially announced their engagement in 2010. Additionally, there may be a subtle tribute to the late Queen Elizabeth II, who passed away in 2022.
The Crown Season 6 Part 1 is now streaming on Netflix, and Part 2 will be released on December 14. Explore more of our Netflix content below:

Editor's P/S
As an enthusiastic fan of The Crown, I am eagerly anticipating the release of Season 6 Part 2. The first part of the season left us with a profound sense of loss and reflection, as we witnessed the tragic death of Princess Diana. The aftermath of this event will undoubtedly continue to shape the narrative in Part 2, and I am curious to see how the Royal Family navigates the changing tides of public opinion and their own personal grief.
The time jump that is expected in Part 2 also adds an element of excitement and intrigue. The inclusion of significant events such as the deaths of Princess Margaret and the Queen Mother, as well as the introduction of characters like Kate and Pippa Middleton, suggests that the show will explore a broader range of storylines and relationships. It will be fascinating to see how the series weaves together these historical moments with the personal journeys of the Royal Family.
