The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement (2004)

The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement (2004) is the royal rom-com sequel we didn’t know we needed, bringing back Mia Thermopolis as she steps deeper into her princess duties—this time, with marriage on the table! 💒💫

Now officially a princess of Genovia, Mia learns she can’t take the throne unless she gets married—like, ASAP. Cue a hilarious search for the perfect suitor, unwanted proposals, tiara drama, and (of course) a swoon-worthy love triangle. Chris Pine joins the cast as Nicholas, and the chemistry? Off the charts. 💘

This sequel leans more into the fairytale fantasy than the original, with extravagant gowns, hilarious palace traditions, and plenty of royal mishaps. Anne Hathaway is once again charming and relatable, and Julie Andrews remains queen in every possible way—graceful, funny, and full of heart.

Sure, the plot is predictable and very fluffy, but that’s kind of the point. It’s a comfort movie—full of glam, girl power, and just the right amount of chaos.

If you’re in the mood for something fun, romantic, and totally royal, The Princess Diaries 2 is the perfect royal escape. 👠✨
