    According to Jackie's Secret Service agent: "They had a good relationship. I know that the press has sometimes written it otherwise, but that's not really true. The relationship was friendly, more warm than it was cold," Hill says, referring to the oft-repeated narrative that the two women didn't get along. In reality, Hill says they were two young mothers navigating life in the harsh spotlight, who found common ground talking about their kids, and their passion for all things equestrian. "They had small children and they had horses. Two things that they could discuss forever," Hill recalls. As far as the lunch went, Jackie told Hill it was "delightful."

    Love how the Queen casually points out the portrait of King George III to the wife of the American president. Touche, Your Majesty. Touche!!! 😄

    Ok, Jackie was an avid student of history. She was smart with a searing personality. She would have known the history.

    Let’s take a minute to remember that this series is inspired by true events but in truth, these mini side conversations and subplots that occur behind palace walls are constructed fictional narrative. It’s a show. As Jackie reveals her true nature and shyness, she endears herself to Elizabeth, and the two women find a common ground. Elizabeth therefore lets her guard down which is a perfect set up for later in the episode. It makes Jackie’s harsh words even more hurtful. This is called drama. It’s a tv show. Yes they are trying to capture the essence of these people, we need to recognize them, but all these behind the scenes conversations are scripted in a way that weaves together an exciting show to watch. The writing in the crown is wonderful, and the two actresses are brilliant. We recognize the historically famous women and simultaneously go along for the ride of the dramatic narrative. Bravo to the Crown.

    The Queen as portrayed in The Crown never opened herself up this much to anyone outside of her immediate family. She really bonded with Jackie here; they are simpatico in personality and in having younger sisters who want their roles. So it must have hurt her later in the episode when she found out that Jackie called her incurious, unintelligent and unremarkable.

    I can't believe that Jackie Kennedy said all that shit about Elizabeth II behind her back at that dinner party, that was low. I also laughed with Elizabeth II tried to fit into that dress to be like slender slim Jackie.

    The way they became friends so quickly before He was taken from us was so out of the ordinary, but beautiful at the sametime. The Crown is one of my favorite shows & I'm American. I guess the Lil' gay boy I was when I was little always dreamt of finding my King so I'd be the Queen...
  • Jodi Balfour gives a fine performance as Jacqueline Kennedy, but I think she more resemble's the First Lady's sister, Princess Lee Radziwill.
  • @stregadisalem732
    The actress playing Jackie looks more like Lee Radziwill, Jackie’s sister, than Jackie.

    don’t believe this actually happened - great drama but how would two strangers have such an intimate conversation
