We expected Lifetime to amp up the cheese for this forthcoming biopic about Prince William and Kate Middleton. But this preview clip surpassed our corniest imaginations. (via Windsor Knot)
“William and Kate,” starring Nico Evers-Swindell as Prince William and Camilla Luddington as Kate Middleton, will hit the small screen on April 18. And aside from the obvious fact that the actors look nothing like Will and Kate, we took issue with the melodramatic acting and cliché one-liners, too.
At one point, we see an emotionally distraught Kate crying in a bubble bath with wine glass in hand, while William is off “struggling to be a normal guy.” Later, when William tells Kate he loves her, she responds, “I love the you no one gets to see but me.” Ick. It’s a good thing we have our royal wedding barf bags ready!
