Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s Lifetime movie has finally aired in the US ahead of their royal wedding this weekend.

The film, titled Harry and Meghan: A Royal Romance, is an 85-minute long feature which follows the early stages of their romance, and it stars Parisa Fitz-Henley (Meghan) and Murray Fraser (Harry).

The Lifetime movie obviously attracted a lot of attention online, and received a mixed reaction from fans.

Many fans noticed that Prince Harry’s brother, Prince William, and his wife Kate Middleton’s marriage appeared strained in the film, and that Kate looked down on Meghan.

“Why are they making Kate and Will seem so cold? Did the creators have some hate towards them? Kate is wonderful and there is no need to put her down in order to put Meghan on a pedestal. #ARoyalRomance, ” one fan tweeted.

Another fan wrote, “Is anyone else completely bothered that they are doing William and Kate like that? They’re making Kate seem awful and robotic and making it seem like they have a strained marriage. #ARoyalRomance.”

“I know this is only a movie, but I highly doubt that Kate is this stuck up, she went through an equally amount of chaos with the press, for the majority of her adult life,” another viewer said.

However, a lot of people were surprised by how much they liked the movie, and there was plenty of praise for Parisa Fitz-Henley, who portrayed Meghan in the film.

One fan commented, “The actress playing Meghan Markle is spot on. She even sounds just like her. And we know that because we’ve heard Meghan before. Bravo. #ARoyalRomance.”

People also loved the fact that Prince Harry brought Meghan to Botswana for their second date.

One viewer tweeted, “Taking a girl to a different country on your SECOND date is bougie as all hell.”
