The final series of The Crown brings us to the last years of Elizabeth II's reign.
Showrunner Peter Morgan has said the show “is a fictional dramatization, imagining what could have happened behind closed doors” The Fayed family, unsurprisingly, has denied that Dodi Fayed ever proposed to Princess Diana .
The show depicts Diana taking up an invitation from Mohamed al-Fayed to escape both press attention and the big party Prince Charles is throwing for Camilla Parker Bowles ’ 50th birthday by vacationing on his luxury yacht off the South of France .
William and Harry would come to Harrods, the famous department store then owned by Mohamed al Fayed , to play Street Fighter II with Harry over swimming in the sea, where he might be photographed.
The program shows Diana telling Dodi that she intends to return to London Aug. 28 , sooner than expected, so she can see her sons when they return from visiting the queen at Balmoral.
Al-Fayed pressures Dodi into insisting that she fly back on the family’s private jet rather than on the British Airways flight she has booked and that they spend the night in Paris .
Diana has no interest in either marrying Dodi or residing in the Villa .
