The TV movie will chronicle “the courtship and love story between a beloved prince and his new fiancée,” Lifetime revealed in a press release.
It will also “examine the history of Prince Harry (Fraser) and Meghan Markle (Fitz-Henley) from the moment they met after being set up by friends, through their initial courtship when they were able to keep their romance under wraps, and ultimately the intense global media attention surrounding their relationship and Meghan’s life as a divorced American actress.”
