Hallmark’s Meghan Markle, Royal Wedding Movie Marathon: Schedule For May 19
Spend Saturday morning watching as real-life royal couple Meghan Markle and Prince Harry get married and spend the rest of the day watching fictional royal couples on Hallmark Channel. Plus, catch a showing of one of Markle’s very own Hallmark movies during the all-day event, as well.
Here’s the full May 19 schedule (all times in EDT) for Hallmark Channel’s Royal Wedding Day marathon:
6:30 a.m. “A Royal Winter”
At a career crossroads, Maggie (Merritt Patterson) heads to Europe with her friend for some soul-searching.

8:30 a.m. “My Summer Prince”
Mandy (Taylor Cole), a publicist’s assistant, gets the chance to prove her worth when her boss falls ill and is unable to help Colin (Jack Turner), a troubled prince. To do so, Mandy’s lying to her boss and lying to the prince, who it turns out, isn’t as bad as the press makes him seem. Can Mandy find her way out of this web of lies and come out with both her job and the guy she’s falling for?
10:30 a.m. “Dater's Handbook”
While this isn’t a royal romance, it stars someone who’s living the real-life version of one. Markle headlines the flick as a woman who decides to use a dating self-help book to find the perfect husband. The movie also features Kristoffer Polaha and Jonathan Scarfe.

When Danny (Torrance Coombs) proposes to Sara (Fiona Gubelmann) at the beginning of the premiere, he also reveals he’s the prince of St. Ives.
