Christmas with a Prince: The Royal Baby

This is one of the more ridiculous holiday stories that I have seen with some pretty campy acting.

The royal couple come to America as royal ambassadors. The Princess insists on going even though she is seven months pregnant. She ends up having medical issues and needs to be on bed rest...but then they find out the heir to the thrown has to be born on native soil. How will they solve their problem?

Nick Hounslow is unbelievable as a prince & more so as a husband. There's no chemistry. Could he be queer in real time because he shows as much in his mannerisms from his speech & stance. Although he's tall he doesn't exude masculinity. It seems his lines are even limited along with his stiltedness. I found him to be distracting to what could have been a movie with a strong romance in the plot. Kaitlyn Leeb on the other hand plays the role perfectly & carries the movie. She displays an honesty of what it would be like to marry into a royal atmosphere. Couldn't you have found a better leading man for her?

Thankfully I recorded this so I was able to fast forward through the slow parts, of which there were many. Totally predictable. Scenery and decorations were beautiful. Usually save to watch again, that won't be happening, will delete as soon as it's over. Absolute waste of time.

Great background noise while I cleaned my crafting space. I gotta say - she had HUGE babies (two of them). AND YET she attends a baby party wearing a tiny dress AND heels - and has her figure completely back. WOW! I want her body after I had only ONE baby!

I've never seen a single thing with the lead actress where she's been believable. First saw her on Heartland ... she's never been a likable character.

I did get my crafting space clean though .... LOL.

Other reviewers have dealt with the silly story, fair to poor acting, and poor production values.

I've said before even though it's probably well known that most of us don't expect strict adherence to reality in these movies, especially when royalty is involved. I think this movie fits a young audience where the nonsense is more easily accepted and even enjoyed

Having said that, Tasha's disrespect for the King, which in this movie reaches the point of outright, albeit private, rebellion, was a little too much for me. She acts like she is smarter and can boss around the King. One might even say that Tasha's attitude is American arrogance at it's worst. Then there is the message that a female has as much right to the throne as a male which is repeatedly hammered home. Again, this is a concept we fully accept in America (or at least we should), but that isn't the case everywhere in the world.

There were humorous moments. Some fell flat. Some will appeal to many. The bit with the ring in the tea cup was pretty silly.
