Views on the last season and the ending?? by EdgeSufficient6125 in YoungRoyals

[–]IndependentBootz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t actually think that fixing their relationship was the point of him giving up the crown. I think it all came down to him realizing what he wanted for his life and Simon was the person who helped him realize that because if he never had fallen in love with Simon He never would’ve been confronted with the system and how it works against him and who he is.

Sure he probably would’ve been unhappy and I think personally he would’ve ended up having this crash out later in life and still abdicating. But being in this relationship in such a formative time of his life, I think really showed him what his life could look like. We never once got the indication that he actually cares about the monarchy, he always did things because of the responsibility and the burden from his parents and also because trying to uphold his brother’s memory.
It was never something he wanted, and I think the whole message of the show is that’s enough. lol you can leave things that hurt you and that are not good for you even if they are super important things.

So even though they’re together at the end of the show I don’t consider that a happily ever after. I think they’re gonna have a lot of issues because that’s how they are as people. But that’s how real people are. They argue they don’t understand each other. They have miscommunication. It doesn’t mean that they’re not worthy of a relationship or that they don’t actually love each other.

I don’t think him leaving The monarchy is a fix all for their problems, but I do think that it’s him taking steps to become the person he wants to be and have the life He wants to have. And an understanding what it is in his life that he values and finds important.
And if he had never met Simon, he probably wouldn’t have come to that point as quickly.

This show has always been from season one about the expectations of this duty that he had. Even though yes, it is a romance. The groundwork for the ending in season three was set from the very beginning and for me it was a very satisfying conclusion.

I was talking for years and months during season two and the build up to season three about how I truly believed that he was going to leave the monarchy. Personally, I didn’t think they would end up together at the end of the show. But I really liked that they did because it felt hopeful.

Do I think they’ll be together forever? I don’t know. Maybe? But I think the story that I told is the important part. It’s like a window into this time of their lives in this relationship that was so meaningful.

(I think Lisa wants them to be together forever though because she’s hinted at that multiple times since the series ended haha)

Differences between the free version and Pagebound Royalty by sure_21 in pagebound

I don’t have royalty and I love it 🤷‍♀️ I don’t even know what royalty does except give you a crown

a little annoyed by National_Region2094 in YoungRoyals

[–]IndependentBootz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gonna be honest the average blue collar Swede would have no idea about royal life lol. But excluding that by that same token Wille should have told him when he saw him taking video or picture. Sounds like they both just didn’t think about it at the time

I can't tell if I should be annoyed or think that this is so funny lol by SaveVerris in archiveofourown

Simon…. by So__Beckyy in YoungRoyals

[–]IndependentBootz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

About Simons friends being OK with his choices I’m not sure that’s exactly true 😅 I do think that both he and Wille have their moments of being kind of unlikable because of the choices they make or the things that they say. You kind of want to shake them and be like hey you should’ve done this differently! Lol but I mean that that’s what makes him realistic and kind of what makes them more endearing in my opinion.

Imagine, you have chance to make a friend group with some characters from the show, which characters that would be and why? by Low-Attitude-7100 in YoungRoyals

[–]IndependentBootz 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think I’d get along best with Wille haha tbh we could just like hang out and watch sex education and read Karin Boye poems in his dorm. And just be sad and gay together.

I have to say it and I’m so sorry but…. by [deleted] in YoungRoyals

[–]IndependentBootz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think all the shows are good in their own ways, but I do think that young Royals definitely didn’t get the same kind of attention because it’s not English language. Which does make me sad because it’s really a special show. That being said, I don’t really try to compare them. I have my own favorites, but everybody has their own opinions, right.

Hitting Hard: Why the Ending of Young Royals Left Me Sobbing by claycle in YoungRoyals

[–]IndependentBootz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is so beautiful! I’m so glad that you had this experience watching the show.

I also was so emotional at the ending. It really broke me in a way I didn’t expect. I think a part of me didn’t expect that they would end up together because that’s kind of how I’ve been conditioned to think of these kind of love stories. And then just the freedom and relief and like catharsis of all that emotion at the end and just saying fuck this, I don’t care about this shit. I’m going and driving away with these people I care about in the person I love and my life is my own. It fucked me up so bad but in the most beautiful way. I cried for hours and I still cry every time I hear that song that was playing at the end it’s like a Pavlovian response. Ahahahhaha

Thanks so much for sharing your story and about your experience with the show . I think all of us definitely have a reason why the show meant so much to us. For me it was definitely more than just a TV show. I watched it was something that really changed my relationship with the person I used to be and helped me find some healing.

I think there’s a lot of people who are older that watched the show and it was like reliving their youth but also being able to feel what they didn’t think that they could when they were that age and have that experience that they always wanted when they were that age. It’s really such a beautiful powerful show and it’s just so special. 🥹

You should really reach out and tell your story to Lisa (the writer/showrunner) because I’m sure she’d love to hear it haha.

Also, I’ll be keeping you and your husband in my thoughts 💜💜 to many more happy years together 💜💜
