Elizabeth Debicki and Dominic West will take over the royal family roles that used to be played by Emma Corrin and Josh O’Connor. In season four, Emma Corrin played a young Diana marrying Prince Charles. Throughout the fourth season, Princess Diana was shown to be dealing with an eating disorder, as well as an affair with James Hewitt, who was played by Daniel Donskoy. The affair occurred after Princess Diana learned of Prince Charles having his own affair with Camilla Parker Bowles, who was played by Emerald Fennel.

According to Variety, the audience for The Crown will most likely watch the “annus horribilis” for the royal family in season 5, which is described as the year of misfortune. The “annus horribilis” included the public finding out about Prince Charles and Bowles’ affair, Sarah Ferguson sunbathing topless with a male friend, and the Queen’s three out of four children experiencing separation from their partners.
