"The Crown", a series of TV series about the British royal family, is considered by some to be "an objective analysis of the mysterious palace life", but many people believe that there is a "fabricated" plot, in order to attract the audience, deliberately added a interpretation that is inconsistent with the facts.
One of the controversial passages is that Prince Philip, the husband of Queen Elizabeth II, had been unfaithful to his wife. Screenwriter Peter Morgan also said in response to the outside world: "Doesn't every Englishman know he is having an affair? ”
Whether it is the gossip circulating among the people or the righteous statement of the screenwriter, the royal family has always not responded, but according to the "Mirror" local time on November 9, a former royal staff named Dickie Arbiter rarely spoke out, revealing the truth of Prince Philip's infidelity...
Mr. Albit was once the private secretary of the late Queen, and relatively speaking, as a guest invited by Channel 4, his words should still have some credibility. The main purpose of his guest show is to tell the difference between the series and reality.
As the plot progressed, the controversy caused by "The Crown" also increased, so the producers had to add a disclaimer to the trailer so that they could tell the death of Princess Di as they wanted.
Mr. Albit was the first to be asked about Prince Philip and his so-called confidant Penelope Smith. Penelope 'Penny' Knatchbull's relationship, the relationship between the two also appears in the series.
"Their relationship is a common interest in driving a carriage, Prince Philip suffered from arthritis at the age of 71, he could not play polo anymore", "The play creates scenes where Penny becomes overwhelmed after losing her daughter, they made it up, it never happened", "It's a good play, but you shouldn't believe everything he shows".
In addition, Albit also stressed that Penny does like to drive carriages, but the two are 30 years apart, and there can be no relationship.
Also known as "Mrs Brabouren", the 68-year-old is considered a close friend of the royal family, which is what she looked like when she appeared at the Queen's funeral in September.
"The thing about Prince Philippe is that he is always blamed, of course in the French newspapers of the 50s and 60s, he was labeled as having an affair with one actress or dancer after another," Albit said, "Prince Philip is a good man, as soon as he appears, the ladies fall in love with him, and he has good clothes. But one thing, he always liked window shopping, but he doesn't buy... He flirts but won't go any further."
In The Crown, Prince Philip is added as a lover of a ballet dancer named Galina Ulanova (picture), but in reality it cannot be proved that the two have crossed paths.
But a cabaret actress named Pat Kirkwood is the heroine of the rumors about Philip, along with television personalities Katie Boyle, singer Helen Cordette, actress Mel Oberon, novelist Daphne Dumaurier, Princess Alexandra (the Queen's cousin) and the Duchess of Abercon.
Prince Philip couldn't seem to respond to such a "dazzling" list, but only once, when asked about possible infidelity, he once said: "God, woman, have you ever thought that in all years I have never been to any place without a bodyguard?" How can I get rid of them? Is there such a thing? ”。
