I was fully committed to hating this made-for-tv-movie from beginning to end, but FFS it was so cute to see Harry and Meghan fall head over hells for head each other.
I braced myself for the most craptastic two hours of my life. And guess what? It was only 50 percent-ish bad. In truth, I enjoyed it, mainly because of Markle's character.
OK, fine. Harry and Meghan's courtship, which lasted 36 months at most, was not nearly as long as that of William and Catherine's. At least the latter had four years of university and their twenties (which most of us can agree is a decade full of "let's figure it out"), to f*** things up.
Alright so what offended me most about this movie?
So, everyone at the evening reception was in black tie...with hats. Fascinators and ballgowns, the most distasteful of combinations.
That doesn't happen in real life, BTW. You either show up at the church with a day dress and a hat/fascinator, or you show up at the evening in a party dress. There is never a combination of the two.
The rest of the movie lulled on (and what actually transpired during H and M's relationship is anyone's guess).
Just as the movie came to a close, actual footage of Meghan and Harry at their first engagement together in Nottingham rolled.
Something happened; my eyes got blurry. My sister said I had a weird smile on my face. Was I enjoying this movie?
Harry and Meghan forever! And ever!
