Crown And Controversy - 1. The Engagement

In November 2010, Prince William proposed to Kate Middleton—and the monarchy’s future shifted forever. But this royal fairytale had its shadows: a university romance tested by separation, the media’s “Waity Katie” taunts, and the ever-present ghost of Princess Diana. In our premiere episode, we trace the couple’s long road to engagement—from St Andrews to a remote cabin in Kenya—and unpack the pressures, symbolism, and modern stakes behind the sapphire ring that once belonged to William’s mother. As the royal institution searched for relevance in the 21st century, could a commoner from Bucklebury carry the Crown forward?
