Reality meets Fiction: “It seemed inconceivable to those who had made such sacrifices during the war that you, as their King, refused a lesser sacrifice… My feeling for you as your Mother remain the same, and our being parted and the cause of it, grieve me beyond words. After all, all my life I have put my Country before everything else, and I simply cannot change now.” - July 1938, Queen Mary in a letter to her eldest son the Duke of Windsor, almost two years after his abdication. "I have seen three great monarchies brought down through their failure to separate personal indulgences from duty. You must not allow yourself to make similar mistakes…. The fact is, the crown must win. Must always win." - fictional Queen Mary letter to the new Queen Elizabeth II on the death of King George VI (The Crown).
