William+%26+Kate%3A+A+real+life+fairytale

Lifetime’s “William & Kate” features the real story of Prince William of Wales and Duchess Catherine of Cambridge’s relationship, from the day they met at the University of St. Andrews to William’s proposal.

Starring Nico Evers-Swindell as William and Camilla Luddington as Kate, this movie gives a personal touch that really allows the public to see a more relatable side to the famous couple.

The movie begins with William’s first day at the University of St. Andrews and his first interaction with Kate. Although the two were friends for only a year before becoming romantically involved, the movie covers how their friendship blossomed as well.

Full of heartwarming moments mixed in with the troubles William and Kate faced along the way, this movie is a definite crowd pleaser and is sure to satisfy any admirer of the royal family. Kate’s excitement to meet Prince Charles and visit Buckingham Palace is charming and makes her seem like any other college age girl, while this glimpse of William’s private persona makes him more likeable.

A cute, lighthearted chick flick, “William & Kate” has the added bonus of actually having happened, giving hope to all the teenage girls still hoping to marry their Prince Charming. This film is perfect for date night, girl’s night, or just a quiet night in.

“William &Kate” originally aired on Lifetime in April of 2011. It is now available on Netflix.
