Buckingham Palace intruder Michael Fagan claims ‘The Crown’ fictionalizes the Monarchy
Buckingham Palace known intruder Michael Fagan claims ‘The Crown’ has fictionalized the monarchy
Buckingham Palace's infamous intruder Michael Fagon has a bone to pick with The Crown and their excessive use of 'artistic' license' when portraying the monarchy.
The point where Fagan felt the need to come forward was when Tom Brooke (playing Fagon) was showcased having an intimate conversation with the Queen regarding the harsh political policies of Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher.
No sooner than that did Fargan turn to The Mirror and accuse the show of relying too heavily on “artistic licensing” and washing away the core of the monarchy.
He also touched upon the 'real' conversation that he shared with the Queen. Reportedly, his conversation was short and involved no discussion of politics, "I pulled back the curtain and she said, 'What are you doing here?'."
During which the Queen even replied ‘normally’ towards his unexpected entrance and before excusing herself, simply said, “I'll be back in a minute." And disappeared as fast as her legs would carry her, into the hallway to alert a footman.
For the unversed, Fagan, at the time was an unemployed painter and decorator who was in separation from his partner at the time. After being consumed with worry over having to raise his children on his own, he broke into Buckingham Palace and evaded palace guards just to ask the Queen for help.
He reportedly came face-to-face with the Queen at the time and even got the opportunity to sit by her bedside before she scampered out into the hall, in her night gown, to get help.
