On October 18, 2022, Netflix shared the official trailer for the show, which opens with students at Hillerska Boarding School returning after the new year holidays. It focuses on Wilhelm, who's struggling to get over Simon, as the aftermath of the leaked video continues to haunt them.

The romantic tension between the two lead characters dominates the trailer. It does offer a peek into the numerous pivotal events that'll unfold this season. However, it doesn't give away any crucial details that could potentially ruin the viewing experience.

The trailer ends on an uncertain note, with Simon and Wilhelm locked in an embrace, wondering:

''What will happen to us?''

Overall, the trailer maintains the romantic tone of the first season, and viewers can look forward to more drama in the upcoming installment as Simon and Wilhelm's relationship goes through a difficult phase. Along with the trailer, Netflix shared a brief description of the plot of the second season, which reads:

''Struggling to accept his newfound royal duties, Wilhelm fears his Crown Prince title will cost him everything he cares about.''

The first season ended on a devastating note after Wilhelm and Simon's se* tape was leaked by August. To make things worse, Wilhelm went on to deny that it was him in the leaked clip, which broke Simon's heart, causing a dent in their relationship.

Although in the end, Wilhelm expressed his love for Simon, he didn't reciprocate his feelings. The upcoming season will hopefully provide fans with a clear answer as to where Simon and Wilhelm's relationship is heading.
