I'm currently watching episode 26 of The Princess Royal, and I have to say - it left me emotionally rattled. The moment where PWX has his emotional breakdown after LPY deliberately invites those men over to tarnish her own image was intense, but what followed was honestly really difficult to watch.
The scene where PWX forcefully kisses LPY after pushing her down felt so jarring and out of place. Watching her struggle to break free while he overpowered her was incredibly disturbing and deeply uncomfortable. I get that PWX has always been portrayed as jealous and possessive, but this crossed a line, it felt like he lost all control and became almost animalistic in his desperation. I honestly didn’t expect him to hurt her like that, even in an emotional spiral.
Though they had a conversation afterward and seemed to resolve things on the surface, that one scene left a really bitter aftertaste for me. It was so out of character and unsettling.
What did you all think about this scene? Did it feel off to you too?
