Who knows what the actors and production team are doing behind the scenes though. Reality is hidden but is always there.

[@The_only_lil_miss]

So who made this movie? We need part 2 ok 😢😅😊

[@lydiaheelu2681]

So we’re having Hallmark type of movies in our African context now? Wow!! Can life get sweeter than this? ✨

[@vuyiswadlamini9273]

wooooooh woooooooooh❤ Pure bliss

[@AinembabaziBrenda-a1995b]

Absolutely ❤️

[@Maya_Unplugged]

Yeah, a royal family is of course verry representative for average life in South Africa, so Americans can feel mor close to the black continent. 😂

[@italguynj]

this is a BET+ movie

[@marcia1248]

This is better than any Hallmark movie.

[@maryettag777]

No cussing! No nude bed scenes! No body is on drugs! What a pleasure to watch!😍😍😍🤩🤩🤩

[@jsmith4049]

Exactly 😂

[@patriciaprice9714]

Totally Agree❤

[@kynearamsey1968]

This was a nice clean family movie

[@transformmyheart5842]

This was very nice & agree that it didn't need all that nonsense of cussing & nudity, etc...❤

[@AmyBR4b]

Yes!!!! 👏🏽

[@marthamolepo1216]

It's a family movie, the kids can dig in. No foul language, no nudity. Thank God

[@_joycekinuthiaa]

100% true

[@nadirajames4267]

That’s what I said🤗🤗

[@melliemel32]

Yes, thank Him and w a good storyline! 🙏🏽☝🏽✝️

[@TEWMUCH]

Thank you Jesus!

[@JodiSmith-c6r]

Amen!

[@ramonaphillipsteach3284]

I love the way he loves her, and how she loves him, clean movie. I love the way this movie makes me feel. I love true friendship between these two ladies as well, no crazy dysfunctional behavior. I also love that she closed her mouth and put her emotions aside for a moment to hear him out when their love was tested. They both humbled themselves, respect, honor.❤🙏🏽🙌🏽🙏🏽

[@mickeyplatt4915]

When he said “baby I’m sorry for raising my voice at you “❤😢 I’m up at 5am talking about “it’s ok”😂😂

[@tinkerbell2675]

I agree with you...

[@lwandilwandi5892]

Enjoyed the movie, it has that Hallmark vibe, with a South African flair...Hallmark South Africa bafwethu, and we're here for it.

[@ntombyomzulu1527]

South African actors and Royalty personified. Thapelo, Abena, Sive, and Sello exude graciousness and class. Jennifer simply sparkles.💜💜💜💜

[@lindathornton6607]

[@IAMElsLife]

This movie is absolutely beautiful and so extremely heart warming. The setting in South Africa is everything!!!🔥😍🤩❤🤩😍🔥

[@pbenson56fran]

I loved watching this movie for so many reasons. The Queen acted just like a mother who wanted something else for her son.....I loved that the King was truly a man...He didn't disrespect his wife, he knew her....But he stood his ground that she needed to respect another person, Riley....The Princess loved her son, she loved her family. But nothing got in the way of knowing how to treat others. The Prince stood firm in his love just like anyone else would. But as he knew he was the son and needed to respect his mother. I love the acting skills of everyone and the talent musicians..Yeah!!!! Riley didn't care if he was a Prince if she saw something wrong she spoke up.....The movie had true drama that an ex-boyfriend or ex-girlfriend might pull. This was will be watch again in the future.....Thank you ACI On The Go....(smile)

[@tressyjones7995]

Wonderful intelligent clean movie with an all black cast!!! Loved every minute of this movie! Loved the black royalty that was truly Royal! Keep them coming!

[@random-dc3xr]

Omgoodness everyone is a phenomenal actor or actress!!! Outside of the two leads, the prince's sister is a standout for me! The sunset scene party planning the festivities with the lead actress was such a beautiful scene ❤

[@sunkissed1974]

The king is so quietly strong and wise. Full of charm and humor and love. What a wonderful character in this movie.

[@aliciamilton5725]

One of the BEST movies ever! Love this story. Blended fairytale with real life situations and highlighted differences, over coming challenges and differences, and showing unity of the family in a royal setting! Just beautiful. Looking forward to seeing a continuation of this story. Please create if you have not already done so.💜

[@maryelizabethtv4941]

No drugs, sex, nudity, violence, nor profanity. Something the entire family can watch.❤❤❤🎉

[@righttoexist59]

Loved this!! Black culture, black positivity, clean and wholesome. I would love to see more 😊

[@AngelBaby11117]

I am glad the Queen softened to true love and respected Riley's loving care for her grandson as well as for her son.

[@superlove.6797]

Please have a second part when they get married and have children please do a second part. This was so wonderful so innovating so warm so loving and I’m so thankful thank you thank you.

[@connect2christ531]

This is a lovely movie. It’s so nice to have a family friendly wholesome movies with no profanity or wickedness. I thoroughly enjoyed it! Thank you for sharing it.❤

I agree! It is so refreshing! This is my first time seeing it and I love 💗 it! 5 stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️A++++++++++++++movie! 👏👏👏👏👏👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽😎😎😎😎😎

[@v.dickson]

It's so good to see Jennifer Freeman act again. It puts a smile on my face. I remember as a kid watching her in You Got Served which was my hit back then and years later she's back again doing family movies like this. 😊

[@zarhanjobarkie2559]

Jennifer is being played by the same actor also played for Dakota Johnson. Listen to the voice and her Prince is being played by the same female also playing the Wakanda role of Chadwick Boseman. Same voice. Alle white actors.

[@kaylajack-yg4cy]

She also showed in my wife and kids as Claire Kyle

[@milunchmoney7790]

I don't like the mom she is cold😅

[@whitneysimon6828]

I couldn't figure out where I've seen her b4

[@whitneysimon6828]

​@kaylajack-yg4cy ahhhhhhhh that's itttttt.... dang I was like I know her..... thank you for this... it's good to see her not type cast ... she did a great job

[@NoseyNuNu]

The little boy played his role so amazingly good 👍🏿🙌🏿❤️

[@altrinaallen1851]

This movie took my breath away it was so beautiful I love this movie. It was no cussing no drugs no shooting no fighting it was just a perfect movie I can look at this movie 100 more times and will not get bored looking at it, this was a perfect love story he loves her so much. She loves him with all her heart. His ex-girlfriend try to break them up her plans didn't never work it backfire on her thank you for sharing this beautiful movie. When the mother see Riley reading a story having time with her grandson that opened up her heart to love her more. You see that big old beautiful smile she had on her face she knows Riley is a perfect woman for her son.

[@laurabatson3193]

This is one of those movies I don't want to end!! Love it

[@TheGoonette]

I am glad that I finally found a movie that didn’t require me to send my preteen out of the room. Nice, clean movie. Loved it. Looking forward to Part 2 in 2 days on BET+

[@lydiaheelu2681]

Everything about this movie was pretty amazing. But the Queen and the son played their parts exceptionally well 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@chantelbarrett3522]

What I love about Freeman is that she plays all her roles to perfection ❤ and big up to Hallmark for stepping out of their zone...genius with the South African plot😊

[@Kalik8000]

umm... this is not a Hallmark (studios/ production) movie....

[@jacqueline8559]

And nothing in this Film, in any way, resembles South Africa,. Not remotely .....

[@celinegreenidge5178]

Yeah. About two years ago, I actually had to ask them if black people don't fall and stay in love or people of different races. If there was a black woman in the movie , she was always the tag along friend, who was sometimes the white female lead"s assistant or something.

[@italguynj]

This is a BET+ movie

[@celinegreenidge5178]

@@italguynj That is interesting because if that is the case, it is the cleanest bet movie I have ever seen. I don't really watch them, but the few I have seen were not that 'pure' and simple, yet nice.

[@jerilemons5281]

I Havenot Seen Jennifer Freeman Since My Wife And Kids And You Got Served ❤😊

[@lovepurple9116]

💜I appreciate the integrity between them, no one sneaked into each other’s bedroom at night, he apologize for getting loud with her and his mother communicated and expressed her feelings in a civilized manner with her I also agree with the other comments mentioned on here as well. Great Movie looking forward to watching more

[@dorlees5608]

What a wonderful movie! ❤ great cast, beautiful scenery. Definitely worth watching! ❤❤❤ Mandla has really princely manners! . ❤❤❤

[@Kalik8000]

Great movie. Handsome cast. Especially the prince and princess (brother and sister). I hope if they make a part 2, with a wedding, they will have an African traditional ceremony, as well as a European (here comes the bride/ wedding march) ceremony... as most Africans do..... to show that even though Africans know how to assimilate, to help them move on the world stage..., they still value the traditions of their Ancestors who lived lavish lives before colonization...

[@fionamusana8878]

It's great to see familiar faces and places. Thank you for such a heartwarming movie.

[@josephinenabila9119]

Very interesting from start to finish. No harshness in language but a beautiful display of love and respect 🎉🎉🎉

[@cw-s3582]

Absolutely beautiful movie. SO want to see more of this quality & especially with South Africa culture and characters ... just exceptional movie that I will watch repeatedly.

[@ayannalewis8470]

Love how the son put his foot down and be a MAN who heart chose and not what his mother want no disrespect but mother God send and my heart connect with riley heart ❤ and thats final say

[@donnammonroe2095]

This is one of the most beautiful movie I have seen. Hallmark needs to put more diversity into their movies like this one.🥰👏🏿😍😊🤗🤗🤗❤❤❤❤

[@cynthiashannon9828]

I’ve been waiting for Hallmark to produce more racially diverse movies. This is so nice.

[@maryettag777]

Such a beautiful movie! I loved it! I didn't want the story to end!

[@pbenson56fran]

I said the same. I thought this is the end...

[@denisechambers3446]

I LOVED this movie!!!! Found myself SMILING like a corny lovestruck teenager!!!😊🥰☺️ I just wish the costumes/outfits could've been more regal--especially at the anniversary ball! Ok, ok, I was hoping for Coming To America type of African Royal glamour for the Ball!🤷🏽‍♀️ Otherwise, I TOTALLY💯 loved this SWEET movie with its purity and loving family plot!❤️👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽❤️ Thank you!!🤗🤗🤗

[@cherylliz99]

I stumbled upon this movie last night and was stunned at the storyline and the actors……This gives us hope!!!

[@daniellekeith6210]

Yes finally a wholesome movie to watch. I appreciate movies like this. I wish they make a part 2

[@RiaE.S]

This is my 2nd fave movie by Jennifer Freeman, first is Throwback Holiday. She's in her 30s like myself..idk, these holiday movies she's doing just hit different. She glows and simply exudes genuine chemistry in these movies.

[@joybellepalanca1402]

By far the BEST movie I've seen in a very long while 💚💖💛 TRULY classy and appropriate FAMILY movie..... thank you HOST....

Part 2 is out in 2 days on BETP+

[@angelalynn9393]

@TheGoonette just ran across it over the weekend. Thanks! It was great too 👍 😍😍

[@pbenson56fran]

Yes yes yes yes Because Riley doesn't realize his mind could change out of the blue. Something could happen to his father and he would have to take over as King...That's why I thought we are left in the air... Maybe, they will consider a part 2 with more drama.

[@lydiahmwasame5668]

But the "prince family, apart from her Majesty " they just lovely 😍 👌 👌

[@sischi924]

Part 2 please! Such a wonderful movie, I really enjoyed watching this and it wasn’t corny. It was wonderfully written and directed.

[@kellyannneverson8478]

Love is unconditional and shared ,it doesn’t matter colour or class and you definitely don’t force a child to be someone they don’t want to be or be with someone they don’t want to be with.

[@deirdremyers2648]

His mom has been so reluctant so im shocked she hugged Riley in the end. I thought her heart was moved watching Riley and her grandson bond.And his ex just wotked my nerve.He said hed moved on. However i feel he was often not firm enough with his ex, he needed to keep his distance. He constantly put himself in a position of Riley seeing him with his ex in ways that would give any woman pause.

I'm a HUGE Hallmark fan... And I have to say, Hallmark did not "invent" romance; nor did they invent the "romantic" movie. This is not a Hallmark production... It is a "Hallmark" styled movie, if you will.. but was not funded and produced by Hallmark Studios...... But, yes, if you are a Hallmark Movies/ Channel watcher, dig in! It's great!

[@khalikat9471]

Fantastic Christmas movie, wholesome with just a bit of clean family drama exactly how it should be😊..
