British Royal Family News find that there’s a very good chance that Queen Elizabeth will cancel her subscription to Netflix in 2021 – if she hasn’t done so already – because it seems like the online streaming giant is doing everything that it can to get on the British royal family’s bad side.
And it seems as though they might have done it. There’s a new report suggesting that Buckingham Palace is accusing Netflix behind the scenes of sharing “sinister” messages. This comes after Netflix used Twitter to promote a new documentary about Princess Diana. Here’s what you need to know.
Sharing a short teaser trailer from the documentary, Netflix wrote on Twitter, “The documentary Diana: IN Her Own Words answers much of what you are asking.”
British Royal Family News: Buckingham Palace Accusing Netflix Of Sharing ‘Sinister’ Messages?
The teaser then shows Diana telling several stories related to Camilla Parker Bowles, including one in which she recounted a gift to her that made Diana want to back out of her marriage to Prince Charles. She says that Prince Charles and Camilla Parker Bowles’ relationship at the time broke her heart.
Of course, it didn’t take very long for Buckingham Palace to respond to the message in Netflix’s tweet, as one insider told The Daily Mail that the palace is accusing Netflix of using social media to share ‘sinister’ messages about the Prince Charles, Princess Diana and Camilla Parker Bowles love triangle.
“It’s one thing to make a drama that not even the writer claims is entirely factual, but for Netflix to use its corporate social channels to create and post material that is one-sided at best feels like corporate trolling — it’s pretty sinister,” the source said.
If that weren’t enough, additional sources say Prince Charles might be thinking that Netflix’s The Crown is propaganda against the palace.
According to the Daily Mail, Culture Secretary Oliver Dowden has voiced his concern that fabricated scenes in the drama series were so damaging to the Royal Family that viewers should be warned at the start of each episode that it was not based on what he calls “fact.”
“It’s a beautifully produced work of fiction, so as with other TV productions, Netflix should be very clear at the beginning it is just that,” he told The Mail on Sunday. “Without this, I fear a generation of viewers who did not live through these events may mistake fiction for fact.”
If that weren’t enough, a source close to Prince Charles also added, “It is quite sinister the way that [The Crown executive producer] Peter Morgan is clearly using light entertainment to drive a very overt republican agenda and people just don’t see it. They have been lured in over the first few series until they can’t see how they are being manipulated. It is highly sophisticated propaganda.”
So far Netflix has not made any additional comments.
