Netflix announces third and final season of Young Royals
Wilhelm and Simon stans unite: Sweden’s supreme power couple will return for one final stint at Hillerska. On 14 December, Netflix announced that their critically-acclaimed LGBTQ+ drama Young Royals has been renewed for a third and final season.
In a statement, head writer and co-creator Lisa Ambjörn said: “I’ve always imagined Young Royals being told in three parts, and because of the fans’ dedication to our story, we get to tell the last one.” Ambjörn continued to explain that the ending of Young Royals has been “clear to me from the start” and that she’s “thankful and honoured” to finish the series as she originally intended.
All lead characters will return including Edvin Ryding as Prince Wilhelm, Omar Rudberg as Simon, Frida Argento as Sara, Malte Gårdinger as August and Nikita Uggla as Felice.
The first two seasons of Young Royals were met with overwhelming praise with critics lauding the performances of Ryding and Rudberg, the scandalous storylines and for casting teenage actors in teenage roles.
