The makers have said that the upcoming season will not cover recent events of the royal family. This means that the fans will not be able to see the wedding of Prince Charles and Meghan, their whole walking out of the royal family drama, and the most extreme of them all, the queen’s death.

Talking about global events, season 6 is expected to cover 9/11, the invasion of Afghanistan, and the 2000 Olympics which were held in Australia.
