It’s good news, bad news for Young Royals fans today. The series is officially returning for a third season — however, it will be the hit show’s last.

In happy news, all the lead members of the cast will be back to say goodbye, including Edvin Ryding as Prince Wilhelm, Omar Rudberg as Simon, Frida Argento as Sara, Malte Gårdinger as August, and Nikita Uggla as Felice. Also returning is Lisa Ambjörn, head writer and co-creator.

As it turns out, this is all by design. “I’ve always imagined Young Royals being told in three parts, and because of the fans’ dedication to our story, we get to tell the last one. The ending has been clear to me from the start and I’m so thankful and honored to get to finish this saga as intended,” Ambjörn shared in a press release.

She elaborated further on Instagram. “If someone had told me in 2019 when this little universe was just a tiny idea that had been planted in my imagination and started to grow and consume my every waking thought, that it would turn out to be a global success saga spanning over three seasons — shaping new talent both in front of and behind the camera and creating a fandom that would take on a life of its own and actually change peoples life’s for the better — I would have said TOLD YOU SO,” she wrote.

“No jk it’s actually beyond anything any of us could have ever dreamed or hoped for, and it’s all thanks to you — our viewers. Your commitment and love for YR has given us the honor and privilege of getting to see our story through. Because one thing I did know in 2019 was how it all was gonna end. And now my friends, it’s coming. This season is the last one.”

Fans took to Twitter to respond to the bittersweet news.

“young royals has been renewed for a 3rd and final season”

“young royals S3 last season”

“YR SEASON 3 IT'S THE LAST ONE #YoungRoyals”

“young royals is returning to the third and final season but it won’t be the end for wilmon bc wilhelm and simon are soulmates and endgame i’m feeling sick actually”
