S6E5 · Willsmania

Complete story — includes the ending

Following the death of Diana, Charles struggles to connect with William, now 15 years old. William insists on returning to boarding at Eton College immediately and throw himself into his studies, despite assurances that he can take it slowly. He begins to receive fan mail and enthusiastic reactions from crowds of young girls at official events, which he finds uncomfortable. He later reluctantly joins Charles and Harry in an official visit to Canada. While on a skiing holiday in Whistler, British Columbia, William tells Charles he "hates" the press and crowds. Charles tells the Queen and Philip that he thinks William is struggling to cope with Diana's death. William is invited to tea with the Queen and Philip, but is instead met by Charles. He accuses Charles of driving Diana to her death. Philip meets William and proposes that his frustration lies with the legacy left by his mother, but since he cannot be angry at her, he is angry at Charles instead. William visits Charles and they share a hug as Philip, reflecting on his own mistakes as a father to Charles, looks on. William later visits his mother's grave at Althorp.
