The Royals has been cancelled so, there won’t be a fifth season. Could it be revived? Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
Will E! cancel or The Royals for season five? Back in December of 2017 though, the creator was fired in the wake of sexual misconduct allegations. Whether or not that affects this show’s chance to continue remains to be seen. The ratings have seen a significant drop but my sense is that E! wants to continue to dabble in the scripted TV business. I’ll update this page with breaking developments.

J from Auastralia – its 2022 just discovered the Royals on Netflixed watched all four seasons thinking there was a season five – y0u cannot leave the story at season four. Please tell us there is a season five and it will be releaseed. Love this show. But the story has just begun and needs to continue.
Just finished watching The Royals. Loved it! Can not beleive the way ot has ended..livid at the time spent watching it to be left hanging. Why do networks do this? There should at least be a warnig or something at the beginning to say season cancelled after season whatever. Then you know not to bother wasting hours watching it!
Bring back the Royals..even one episode to give fans closure!
Also feel for the great cast members!
Please do a season 5 can’t leave it like this need to finish the story instead of a cliffhanger.
It is compelling so a season 5, please!!
My husband and I absolutely love The Royals. It’s one of our top favorite shows, and we are devastated to find out that it has been canceled. Please renew for season 5.
Devestated that thus ended just when I really got into it – I feel that I have wasted a week of my life watching something that has not concluded!!
I really got into this show could you do a revival of like a few years later what happened.
Gutted . Cant cancel leaving it like that. Makes me not want to watch anything if no end
Can’t they at the very least have an episode or movie that wraps it all up. It is so frustrating when you watch a show for several seasons and then they leave you hanging. It makes you not want to start watching anything new.
Please bring back The Royals @ Season 5, the most awesome show I’ve seen forever, love it and miss it like crazy
Def want season 5!
Great TV series, please please bring it back for another series I am addicted
Please make a season 5!!!! Such a great show
