My dears, this is how Margaret seeks the Queen's permission to marry Peter during dinner: kzbin.info/www/bejne/o3WmaIyBg6x4aqs

The Crown here is quoting a conversation between Margaret and American writer Gore Vidal, in which she reportedly said to him: "It was inevitable, when there are two sisters and one is the Queen, who must be the source of honour and all that is good, while the other must be the focus of the most creative malice, the evil sister". Vidal also wrote about Margaret: "She was far too intelligent for her station in life".

I didn't expect to love The Crown's interpretation of Princess Margaret, and I didn't know much about her before I started the series. She died when I was a teenager. But I can see in how the Crown chose to tell her story, Margaret needed more love than she was given, and felt personally restricted by the institution of the British monarchy, as the institution restricted her happiness, and her reluctance to accept the role she played over her vivacious personality, informed her vices and gave her tragic coping mechanisms. But, Peter Morgan is smart to look at her legacy this way- we know the origins of modern royal relationships, romantic and otherwise, and we see Margaret struggle and can't help but look at how others have struggled with the institution that always puts a sense of duty over family. We cannot help but connect the dots and how history repeats itself. This speculative historical fiction drama does speak to many dramatic truths about the British monarchy, and its the truths the institution cannot bare with. Margaret's is one.

To be fair, she was still acting out. Elizabeth was right, she had nothing but freedom in most things. The marriage stuff was unfortunate but, aside from that? Not much to complain about

I always got the impression that Elizabeth was jealous of Margaret. She knew she wasn't as popular as her in the younger years. The whole peter and margaret situation was handled partly out of duty and partly out Elizabeth hating being outshone. On another note as well, when ever someone says margaret was the favourite you can tell its like a knife to her.

Both can be jealous of each other without being cruel. Elizabeth did maybe have some jealousy of Margaret's freedom, but Margaret had to assert it in front of her sister just to remind her which is pathetic.

The King spoilt his “joy” without limits and its called spoiling a child for a reason. We see the result in Margo and Harry. Indulging children too much in their whims and weaknesses is never good for them and never results in a happy adult.

More like Margaret was jealous of Elizabeth. That’s why she wanted to hurt Elizabeth with supposedly being her fathers favourite.

I have never felt sympathy for Margaret. Born into wealth and power and privilege unattainable by 99% of people, she spent her life whining and complaining about all the things she couldn't have rather than being grateful for everything she did have. Spoiled, selfish, and self-centered -- she was insufferable.

She acts like she didn't get any perks while being the Queen's sister.

That description also fit's her great nephew Harry. Margaret was jealous of Elizabeth the same way Harry is jealous of William, and will be for the rest of his life.

Power? She had less power than most people on earth. She had privilege, but not power.

@judycroteau482 6 ай бұрын

Same as Harry towards William. No one feels more misunderstood and woe is me than Harry does. And he whines about his lot in life and craves to be more important than William incessantly.

It's kind of funny how much Helena Bonham Carter resembles Claire Foy, and how much Olivia Coleman resembles Vanessa Kirby.

It never made any sense to me why the “spares” continue to act out and we’re supposed to feel sorry for them. Margaret acted out on purpose, no pity needs to be sent her way.

She was pushed aside but at the same time she choose her life and the actions she made.

@@branflakes12341 but this goes for many (not all) spares in British history. Long before the current functionality of the royal family now. They act out and “suffer” the consequences for it. Do they never learn?

In the case of Elizabeth it appears that she would NOT share duties, as in delegate. As though saying MINE, don't touch!

I'm not a fan. However their love was denied back then and before but they never stopped loving each other all those decades. They're happier together too late. Sad really.
