The Windsor Family On-Screen: Royal Dramas (And A Sitcom) You Can Stream Right Now

It’s been an exciting few weeks for the British Royal Family of late. Queen Elizabeth II celebrated her 92nd birthday on April 21st. Two days later, Prince Louis, the third child of William and Kate (aka the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge) was born. And now in just about a week, William’s brother, Prince Harry, will wed American actress, Meghan Markle at Windsor Castle.

Such events are important milestones for any family, but when you’re as well-known as the Windsor clan, these occasions become a cause for world-wide celebration.

Just imagine the millions of strangers awaiting (and wagering bets on) the name of your newborn baby or entire neighborhoods throwing street parties in observation of your nuptials. Your family’s most private highs and lows are recorded not only for the news and documentary programs, but are subsequently adapted into “based on a true story” films and TV shows for the public’s consumption.

And to be honest, we love it, don’t we? From award winners like The King’s Speech, The Queen and The Crown to the cheesiest TV movies such as Lifetime’s William & Kate or WE’s Charles & Camilla: Whatever Love Means, the popularity of such productions demonstrate the lives of the royals have historical significance and commercial entertainment value as well.

So as we await all the romance and surprises that Harry and Meghan’s big day are sure to have in store, I have compiled a list of movies and TV series that you can stream right now to get in the Windsor frame of mind.
