   When did Shea become Queen Elizabeth's press secretary?

   Did the Queen actually ask Shea to speak with the press?

   • In other words, it’s unknown whether the queen herself actually asked Shea to speak with the press. Shea likely left of his own accord, rather than being ousted by the queen. The Crown depicts Charteris appearing at Shea’s desk and more or less firing him on the spot. This never actually happened.
