    Her story was as sad as Diana’s in my opinion. She was mistreated and misunderstood. They made her choose between her love and title, a decision that she regretted for the rest of her life. Not to mention that she was butchered by the press as well. And then she died at a hospital at 71, crippled and half-blind as a result of strokes. Her life was truly a tragedy. 🥀

      @@katewilliams4013That was an unnecessarily long response, which basically shows that you are perhaps a person with no purpose in her life, and a lot of time on her hands apparently, which makes you write five paragraphs in response to a simple piece of opinion which wasn’t even directed at you. That’s sad! You talk about the freedom of press and speech, yet here you are, lecturing me about how I should think or speak. Not to mention that you don’t even know me. For your information, I just don’t watch TV series. I have read books about these people. They all had flaws and were imperfect (Diana and Margaret included), yet being a royal doesn’t make you immune to misery and sadness. Plus, as a person who claims has read books about these people, you should have known that Diana never married Dodi Fayed, the guy whom you referred to by his race/ethnicity rather than his name. I have sympathized with many people throughout my life and I continue to do so no matter what their background is. So next time, think twice before passing any judgements about other people, especially those whom you don’t know.

      I don't know, it might have made the show even more depressing. I don't know much about the real Margaret, but the character in the show seems to be absolutely crushed and defeated by her situation. She has basically resigned herself to the Crown and is watching Diana make the same mistakes, having the gall to think she can have autonomy. Another lamb to the slaughter...
      In a way, having her mostly in the background is very tragic, and it works. I do love every scene she's in, but I think they gave us just enough.

    The dynamic between Margaret and Elizabeth is truly one of the most unique of all, since realistically, only Margaret could talk to her sister the Queen, in a way that simply no one could ever do so.

    Princess Margaret to me shall and always will be Helena's. Helena gave her everything a great personality, she had her ups and downs, moments when all you wanted to do was jump into the screen and give her a hug and tell everything was going to be alright, but above all else she made Margaret relatable for the viewers. Helena you shall be greatly missed. Such a beautiful actress to go with an equal as beautiful character within herself.

    The show speculated over whether or not she would’ve been a better queen. The monarchy certainly would’ve modernized a lot faster under her stewardship, she still wouldn’t have been allowed to marry Peter Townsend no question, I don’t know that Snowden would have made proper consort material. But the question is still begged would she had been the better queen? And then I see the scene where she handled Mrs. Thatcher, and then there’s no question about it.

    ‘Apparently the healing can not start until grandiosity is diminished.’ - I never noticed this line in The Crown before. It’s in the book I am reading ‘Drama of the Gifted Child’. Narcissist rarely seek recovery because they blame everyone else for their issues. Margaret as she is written in The Crown is very high on narcissism spectrum. As are both Princes of Wales.

      The monarch always leaves everything to the next monarch. Inheritance taxes, which are 80-90% at their level, are avoided that way, since only the monarch is exempted from paying them. It is up to that heir or heiress to give some of the inheritance to others in the family as personal gifts. I'm sure the king made it plain to his elder daughter exactly what he wanted the others to have after he was gone. 🤔
