Peter Morgan has admitted that he invented some Princess Margaret scenes.
The creator of The Crown on Netflix has revealed that scenes in the second episode of season 3, Margaretology, include some fictional elements to Princess Margaret ( Helena Bonham Carter ) visiting the White House.
Peter Morgan told The Sun : "I really wanted her to have a victory and for it to sting for the Queen. But sometimes we have to use our imagination.
"I have no idea what Princess Margaret might or might not have done at the White House. I have a very large research team and not one of them suggested limericks may have happened.
"I did feel that what she was able to do, naturally, is what the Queen could never do. And by not having that responsibility of being the sovereign she could be herself."
The episode shows Princess Margaret kissing President Lyndon B. Johnson, telling filthy jokes, and generally having a raucous time on her trip to the US.
But did she manage to save the UK-US special relationship with her visit?
