it is getting SO STEAMY and so spicy. I feel like we had soooo much going on and idk what to comment on because all I can think about is Wille and simon sneaking off. also, Wille being in choir and barely participating sends me every time. I love them so much. I'm thinking Felice spilled some tea in her interview guys.... but I can't be sure quite yet. also, august going to Sara's to tell her to come back to school!? stahppppp. the creators of this show absolutely know what they are doing with Omar in purple once again. and SIMON TAKING THAT PIC WITH THE LITTLE BOY. my heart was fluttering! this show makes me feel every emotion under the sun literally every episode and of course we had such highs in this episode and are ending on Wille calling simon to tell him what he can and can't post only for simon to see people targeting his home, literally his safe space which isn't safe anymore. I'm so scared for the next episode and what he's going to go through. ugh. whyyyyy 😭

100%. i found this very frustrating. its probably needed for the series to create drama.. but in reality.. someone just needed to sit them both down and explain some issues. especially in season 3 where its already adamant that wille loves simon and has made their relationship public. it wasnt just a “fleeting romance.” though, i guess its typical since willes parents are the most ignorant and naive people ever when it comes to him 😂

LITERALLY. why did no one give Simon a quick crash course on the life he's expected to live now? it's just constantly telling him he's wrong and making Wille be the one to handle it. I hope it doesn't put too much strain but it probably will 😭
yes! totally agree, such a great sex scene and so is the one in rw&rb! I loved getting to see them be so tender and loving, they are the bestttt 🩶

I did notice! so adorable 🥰 exactly! I was a bit frustrated that he seemed so dismissive. I get Wille is used to ignoring it and everything but it is all so new to Simon and not only is it new but also the extent of it is so out of control, I think Wille needs to be more understanding to him. Simon also needs to listen and be there for Wille who is stressed about his mom and everything as well. we just need to be there for each other 🤣
totally agree! I really think it's unfair that no one sat Simon down and talked about what would be expected of him and now are constantly discussing why everything he's doing is wrong and making Wille handle it, which is causing a divide between them. so upsetting.
I love what you said here about their intimate scene! I totally agree with everything and you put it beautifully! 🩶

omg I can't even believe that! it was such a beautiful scene of us getting to see them connect and love each other so sweetly. I'm so glad they were able to get it in there! 🩶 yes! that scene with Simon and his mom was crushing me, I was feeling EVERYTHING 😭 I was livid that everyone is calling on him in this moment but no one can answer his call, be so formal 😭🩶 he deserves the world

it shits me to tears that from the very beginning - farima told willie in the car on the way back to school that he needed to make sure that simon posted only things which were "appropriate" and wouldn't reflect badly on the royal family. where were the adults? why is that willes job? he's in a relationship with simon and all that does is create drama between them. from the outset of the season - the royal court should have sat simon down and explained to him what is and isn't acceptable in their eyes regarding social media. this all could have been avoided and wille wouldn't have been stuck in the middle. as you said - whenever he rings now, its because farima has told wille to and it's always about something he has posted. i feel like the royal court have deliberately put wille in this position to create fractures in the relationship with simon as they view their relationship unfavourably and probably want it to fall apart.
i think the sex scene was extremely tastefully done. which is good. so often in queer media - sex scenes are overly explicit and this just gives cannon fodder to the haters who say "all queer people do is have sex." the one other place i've seen a queer sex scene done in such a tasteful way was in "red, white and royal blue."
once again, fantastic reaction! not many left now!

Did you spot the little boy's pride pin that he was wearing when Simon took his picture with him? Simon is an icon - in Wille's life and for little kids just like him!
I agree, they do both need to listen to the other person and be there for each other. I didn't like Wille dismissing what Simon is going through as nothing and telling him that he's seeking out hate. What? He has to get a ride to school from his friends because of the shit being spoken about him on the bus. The kids in the choir are dissing his song writing and singing. He's not singing out loud in choir anymore and doesn't enjoy his one passion anymore. Plus, Vincent doesn't attack Wille for dating a commoner but he's all in for bullying Simon openly for daring to date Wille. Surely Wille can see what Simon is going through in front of him. He's not seeking out hate. It literally follows him everywhere - he has no respite.
I was worried for the suicide ideation that he expressed in his conversation with Linda. The fact that it took Linda so long after the meeting with the Royal Court to realise that Simon is suffering and needs her support not her constant censure was heartbreaking. At least she finally noticed.
The adults in both these kids lives need to realise the adult level of pressure they are both going through. The fact that Farima 'parents' Wille more then his parents is disgraceful. It is as though they care so little for him. Neglect of your kids is a big part of the Upper Class world, so their behaviour tracks. These kids are expected to raise themselves or the schools are meant to do it for them. Hence they send them to a school therapist to deal with their feelings because they themselves are to stunted emotionally to deal with teenagers.
Simon is supporting Wille by listening to him. But his every action seems to cause problems for Wille. And Farima saying that Simon's actions are causing the Queen's health to deteriorate is un called for hyperbole. The Royal Court are such snakes the way they manipulate Willle.
Their intimate scene was so beautiful and a way to show each other how much they truly care about the other person. It was like they were worshipping each other (with that song in the background), and communicating how much they value each other. It made my heart so full and I teared up. This is the first time we as an audience get to see their lovemaking fully, and I think it's an important thing to show, whilst we are seeing verbal forms of miscommunication. They don't always know how to say and do the right thing to comfort the other person, but their lovemaking is the best comfort they can give. Also, although Simon is showing signs that he doesn't fully trust Wille (after their conversation about Sara), Wille is so careful with him in this scene trying to show him that Simon can trust him with his heart.

I was so upset when I heard Lisa say that about the intimate scene. I saw another interview mention that Edvin & Omar advocated for the full scene as well for the same reason. Good for them! It was beautifully shot, very tasteful, and as Lisa said, was about them connecting and “what was in their hearts.” That deserves to be shown as much as any straight couple. Though I do wonder what Swedish Young Royals fans think of now when they hear that traditional song (used in the scene) which apparently is normally sung by families and children as part of the Walpurgis holiday 😂

a little bit of background info, the creator said in an interview recently that netflix actually wanted to cut the last part of that steamy scene (where we see them actually doing the deed) but the creator refused to let them. she fought against it and said that the straight couples in this series had scenes of explicit sex so the queer couple (who are literally the MAIN couple) should be allowed to as well. just shows how queerness is still getting censored to this damn day.
simon is REALLY starting to realize what it means to date a royal. for someone like simon who is very passionate about his morals and outspoken about who he is, having to constantly be silenced by the royal court is just painful.
the scene of simon crying to his mom broke me. (omar the actor that u are). im so glad we got this scene of him opening up to his mom about how he is feeling. i would have hated if we spent the whole season with linda mad at simon, so im glad they resolved their issue here. linda will always be the best mom ever, making sure to support her son no matter what at the end of the day.
wille at the beginning is just painful to watch. him hearing his mother breakdown on the phone and just not even knowing what to do but to assure her that he will be able to handle everything (as they expect him to). and then him calling later in the ep and just getting no response. this is just way too much pressure and stress to put on a 16 year old boy.
