Season Six of “The Crown” will follow the royal family’s experiences and various tragedies from 1997 to 2005. One such crisis is Harry’s costume party scandal, where he wore a WWII German officer’s uniform. He even had the complete cap and swastika armband.

The aftermath of the costume was accusations of antisemitism and insensitivity on the part of the young Prince. Harry quickly released a statement apologizing for the costume at the time. It read, “I am very sorry if I caused any offense or embarrassment to anyone. It was a poor choice of costume, and I apologize.”

Even years after the incident, Harry has still shared his feelings of shame for wearing the costume. During his “Harry & Meghan" docuseries, the Duke said it was “one of the biggest mistakes in my life.” He added, “I felt so ashamed afterwards. All I wanted to do was make it right.”

Harry also revealed in the docuseries that after the scandal, he spoke to a London Chief Rabbi and a Holocaust survivor. He said, “I could’ve just ignored it and probably made the same mistakes over and over again in my life. But I learned from that.”

Another significant event that will be recreated in season six is the tragic death of Princess Diana. The princess, who died in a car crash in Paris in August 1997, is played by Australian actress Elizabeth Debicki.

Suzanne Mackie, the executive producer of “The Crown,” was present at the Edinburgh film festival. She said they filmed the car crash scene delicately, thoughtfully, and with “enormous sensitivity.”

Mackie said, per NYP, “The show might be big and noisy, but we’re not. We’re thoughtful people and we’re sensitive people. There were very careful, long conversations about how we were going to do it. The audience will judge it in the end, but I think it’s been delicately, thoughtfully recreated.”
