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.❤🙏🏽🙌🏽🙏🏽

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.

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 ❤

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

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.❤

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

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. 😊

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

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

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!

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...

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+

Great cast. Great directing. Great movie. Loved it! ❤ Needs a part 2...

Loved how the king and queen looked at each other at the dance at the end. It was so beautiful. I think I’ve watched this 10 times now 😂😂

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.💜

Love this ❤❤ Everything with Thapelo Mokoena in it is🔥

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

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!!🤗🤗🤗

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

I love every movie with Thapelo Mokoena and Jennifer Freeman in it🥰

I'm not the movie person, but this is the ultimate. It's beyond American movie standard.

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.

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

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

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.

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

Finally a great movie to watch with family and friends ❤❤

Whose cutting onions.what a good movie

Wooow... This is just a wow. Great movie, hallmark should partner more with Africa. ❤❤❤

An absolute stunning love story, best actors and actresses

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.

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

what an incredible production. Good, clean, quality story line. Loved every bit of it.

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

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.

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

Lovely movie. I am glad the Prince never let his ex scare his true love away.

Love conquers all, not just in romance. Lovely movie, thanks for the upload.

such a wonderful movie got me enjoying every second of it.Was stuck to it like glue from start to finish.

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

I never like commenting in a movie but this film catch my attention. I love the way they combined both cultures, the love attraction between everyone, the love chemistry between those two, I mean everything it’s just great. Whoever watches this film I wish your dream will come all true and hope you find true love like them ❤ It makes me dream of having a husband like him 😢😂, may it comes true inchallah, love y’all 💕

Thank you Hallmark movies for coming to South Africa ❤

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!

I love how riley be strong in process with smiless

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

Fellow Ghanaian Sister Abena. We see yah and we proud.

Great movie. I love these types of movies. They are like Hallmark movies but with us in them. Please make more. I'll watch

How much more can this man do to prove his love for this woman.

I admire the son's courage to break away from his mother's wishes. It comes a point when each son, must make their own choices. I wished they portrayed Riley as stronger and stopped running away every other scene.

What a beautiful Love Story ❤

A beautiful one sending love from Kenya 🇰🇪🇰🇪

I must say that even the ex girlfriend was respectful and not really as vindictive as some I have watched.
