King Charles' staff 'fear The Crown will dent popularity' as it relives Camilla affair KingCharlesIII
King Charles' staff are said to "fear The Crown will dent his popularity" as the new series will shine a spotlight on his affair with Camilla, who is now Queen Consort.
After Charles, 73, became King following the death of his mother Queen Elizabeth II on 8 September, a YouGov poll showed a big increase in his popularity — with nearly two thirds of respondents thinking he will make a good monarch, although The Times reports that Palace insiders fear that the new series of The Crown could "dampen enthusiasm."
Diana retaliated the following year with a now-infamous Panorama interview with Martin Bashir which aired on the BBC - and was hidden from Palace officials before its broadcast. After the broadcast, Queen Elizabeth II is said to have written personally to Charles and Diana, demanding that they officially divorce, which they did in 1996.
