With the sudden death of the President, Ambassador to the UK Kate Wyler is passed over as Vice-President. Grace Penn instead selects Kate’s husband, Hal, to join her in the White House. The move forces Kate to choose between going to Washington with Hal as his Second Lady or staying in London as a diplomat. As the Wyler’s marital relationship dissolves, so does the diplomatic relationship between the nations, as the US’s role in the false flag attack on a British warship goes public. And when the Prime Minister won’t cooperate with the Americans on a crisis involving a missing Russian submarine, Kate realizes Hal’s solution could lead the strained allies to war.
Keri Russell and Rufus Sewell return in season three of Netflix’s “The Diplomat.” Kate is tested as personal and political power dynamics shift. In both affairs of state and of the heart, new alliances are formed, old ones are abandoned, and Kate contemplates what's best for her and the country.
