Felice is the unsung hero of Young Royals and also one of the most mistreated characters in the series. The school failed her, her mom failed her, her ex failed her and her friends failed her. She was always there for everyone, serving as a huge emotional support system, but for the most part, no one was there for her. Not even Wilhelm, who handled their relationship with extreme selfishness. All he ever talked to her about was his problems with Simon. Even in season 2 when their hookup was made public and she was being branded a gold digger, Wilhelm managed to turn the narrative back to him and his problems. By season 3, you can see how beaten down Felice had gotten, and all everyone around her was wishing shed "get over it" and instead of empathizing and listening to her, they threw money at the problem as a solution to aid it. The times she openly talked to her friends about her issues, it was met with tone deaf ears. Even when Felice received good support from people like Madison, there was still an aurora of loneliness to her. For being the "head girl" in school, she sure was treated like an outsider.
Felice deserves the world. I hope she becomes a hugely successful cook & that the people around her become more understanding and caring of her ❤️

Obsessed with the Young Royals finale.
Obsessed with Simon, Sara, Wilhelm and Felice driving away from a shutdown Hillerska, free from a system which was never going to accept them, happy and together.
Obsessed with how there’s still a chance Hillerska could reopen because that system is next to impossible to take down and the upper-class rarely face real consequences for their actions.
Obsessed with August’s face when he saw Wilhelm walking away, realising that he was trapped. Wilhelm said August was the heir they needed but he couldn’t have been more wrong - that man has bucket loads of trauma, an eating disorder he isn’t even close to ready to confront and no support system around him, he’s not gonna do much better with the role of Crown Prince than Wilhelm did.
Obsessed with Nils coming out to his friends and them easily accepting him, because their issue with Simon really was the fact that he was poor and a socialist, and Nils both still believes in the system he’s in and his queerness doesn’t destabilise the system the same way Wilhelm’s does.
Obsessed with Stella ending up with Fredrika, because although Rosh might have been fun to hang out with for a night Stella also still believes in and upholds the system she belongs to and Rosh was never going to fit in that system or uphold the traditional feminine values needed to survive in it.
Obsessed with how the monarchy is portrayed as unchangeable and impossible to modernise because it’s built on such outdated ideals.
Obsessed with the mix of both happy and open-ended endings.
I just adore it so much

The scene that first made me cry was not about Simon, Wille, or Wilmon at all
It was when Felice told Sara that she was the one who inspired and gave her the courage to stop straightening her hair. THAT.

I love Felice so much! Her journey of finding her authentic self while also becoming aware of and finding words to express her experiences with the racist microagressions she's facing every day is so beautiful and validating.
Tumblr media
Starting out as a sheltered upper class girl who do so much to fit in and be like the others, with friends who only care about her because of her status and how it improves their status, to the life changing friendship with Sara who makes her feel seen and valid and loved just as she is.

"I don't know what to do. I can't wear this. It just doesn't feel right."
The process continues in season 2 with her both embracing her natural hair, challenging her parents' social expectations by giving up riding because she doesn't enjoy it, and gradually realising that the way she's being othered is wrong, and rejecting that, instead embracing her blackness.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
After losing the friendship with Sara she also stops wearing makeup, as a part of her mourning, but she also allowed herself to show her natural face at school, which is a huge thing. I think we see another version of that self-love when at the last party, she's put on white eyeliner, something that looks really good on brown and black skin.
Tumblr media
Forgiving Sara is an act of self-love for Felice. Sara helped her love herself, and accepted her just the way she is. She gives up the friends who never saw her or cared about her as a person, instead choosing Sara because she realises that their friendship is genuine and allows her to be who she is, her authentic self.

also also the way yeah simon and wille got to be together yeah 1000% but sara and felice!! god it’s so rare for any media to portray friendship and platonic relationships as just as important if not more important than romantic. but!!!!! they were also in that car!! they were endgame too!! it just brings me such joy that this silly angsty little romance can also put such value in friendship too <3 oh young royals writers just kill me

there's something so poetic about young royals ending with the four characters who's journeys of finding themselves were so influenced and ruined by hillerska and the system all driving away from it laughing and heading towards something new together. they are literally leaving hillerska and the story they lived there behind

To be perfectly honest, I found 3.06 a bit of a letdown. All Wilhelm’s problems won’t magically disappear just because he’s abdicating. And I found Kristina’s acquiescence deeply implausible. If someone has acted one way for 17 episodes, it’s tough to believe they’re magically a reformed character in the eighteenth episode.
There were a lot of things I really liked about the episode, don’t get me wrong. But for me, the entire third season didn’t hang together the way the first two seasons did. This last episode felt like such an abrupt tonal transition from the darkness of 3.01 through 3.05.
I loved that the boys (and Sara and Felice) got a happy ending. But I was hoping for….more. This ending didn’t feel entirely earned to me. The first 5 episodes of the season dealt with the downward spiral so well, and then they tried to abruptly bring everything back up again in a single episode.
Apologies if I’m going against the general zeitgeist here. But at this point I’m simultaneously relieved my four faves all got a happy ending, and feeling let down. Because they patched everything up in the space of an hour, and it was a rush.
That said, there were things I thought were spot on. Sara and Felice were note perfect. Nils and Vincent being dismayed about August’s promotion to working royal was great. And Stella and Fredrika being sapphic, but still being classist, snobby bitches. Being queer doesn’t automatically turn someone into a nice person.
But in terms of the central pairing, I’m feeling a bit let down. Like they didn’t quite earn their happy ending and I’m not quite sure it’ll really stick in the long term.
