Maria Menounos Talks ‘Christmas at Plumhill Manor’ & Her Long-Lasting Love Story

Inheriting an English countryside manor right around Christmas? Sounds like a dream! Well, that’s exactly what happens to Margot Stone (Maria Menounos) in the new Lifetime holiday movie Christmas at Plumhill Manor. When Margot heads across the pond to check out her inheritance, she winds up opening her heart in an unexpected romance.

“I always think that the modern woman right now can be a little reluctant when it comes to love because we’re so career-focused, so I thought that was an interesting theme. Love will get you when you’re not looking,” Menounos told Swooon. Her love interest is played by Kyle Pryor, and Menounos understands why Margot is drawn to him. “You see a hot, very fit man, it’s kind of hard to not be captured by him,” she quipped.
