The final season of The Crown introduces the audience to mother-of-three Kate Middleton, the wife of Prince WIilliam.

Actress Meg Bellamy portrays Kate, who will one day be queen, and Ed McVey portrays Prince William. The two met in college and in the name of dynamic storytelling, Netflix takes a few liberties with royal history.

For example, in season 6, episode 7 titled “Alma Mater” a flashback scene occurs from a day in December 1996 just a few months before Diana’s death in a Paris car accident.

The sad truth is that the future queen of England never had the chance to meet William’s mother. The Crown invented that scene, and it does make for some dramatic storytelling.

Both Kate and William have spoken about the former not knowing her mother-in-law. According to William, his 2011 marriage was “very difficult … It’s the one time since she’s died, where I’ve … thought to myself it would be fantastic if she was here, and just how sad really for her, more than anything, not being able to see it.”
