Henry: I certainly hope not. (to Alex): I love you.

Alex: I love you more.

Henry: I think that's up for debate.

(They kiss and walk out on the balcony, where the crowd can see them)

Alex: You know, it's not too late to get out of here and fly to the Maldives.

Alex: I'm always proud to be your boyfriend.

Henry: Oh, sorry, I'm white and upper-class, so my affection comes with strings.

Henry: I feel so lost right now. They used to call me the Prince of England's Hearts, and now... it feels like everyone hates me.

Quote from the movie Red, White & Royal Blue | Henry: Hello? Alex: Baby. Henry: Alex? Oh, my God. A-Are you all right? Alex: I'm hanging in there. Are you okay? Henry: No. No, I'm not okay.

Zahra: You might be lousy at keeping secrets, kiddo, but I'm not.

Alex: Zahra, I could kiss you!

Zahra: Touch me and die.

Alex: I hope Henry was watching. I could feel him watching. He does this thing when he's worried. Furrows his eyebrows. It's the cutest thing. God, I miss him.

Zahra: Oh, my God. I just have to do everything around here. (takes out a phone from a drawer) Shaan Shrivistava, this is Zahra Bankston. Look, I know we said we'd only use these phones in an emergency. Well, welcome to that emergency. I've got the first son in my office, mooing over the prince like a cow in labor, and I'm not gonna get any work done until you put these two lovesick homosexuals on the phone with one another. I don't care what any of those wrinkled white men at Buckingham Palace have to say about it. I want you to march your skinny, perfect a$$ over to the prince, hand him your phone, or so help me God, you will never see me naked again.

Alex: Good morning. Henry and I have been together since the beginning of this year. As many of you have already read, we've struggled every day with what this means for our families, our countries and our futures. And while neither of us is naive about what it means to be public figures, we never imagined our most private and intimate thoughts, fears and truths would become fodder for public examination. What was taken from us this week was our right to determine for ourselves how and when we should share our relationship and queer identities with the world. The truth is, every queer person has the right to come out on their own terms and on their own timeline. They also have the right to choose not to come out at all. The forced conformity of the closet cannot be answered with forced conformity in coming out of it. This isn't about shame. This is about privacy and the fundamental right of self-determination, which are exactly the principles on which the struggle for queer liberation has always been fought. But there is another truth that's much simpler: I fell in love with a person who happens to be a man, and that man happens to be a prince. He has captured my heart and made my life immeasurably better. I love His Royal Highness, Prince Henry George Edward James Hanover-Stuart Fox. I hope one day we'll have the opportunity to be public about our relationship on our own terms. Thank you.

Henry: I want you to have some part of me... (takes off his ring) until you can have all of me again. (gives it to Alex)

(Alex takes off his necklace with the key and gives it to Henry)

Alex: Now we're even. (hugs Henry) I love you. I'll be as patient as you need.

Henry: Please be patient with me, and I promise I will try and be brave for us. Because when they write the history of my life... I want it to include you... and my love for you.

Alex: History, huh? Bet we could make some.

Alex: If you want me to go, you have to tell me to leave.

Henry: Please... don't make me.

Alex: It is the only way you're getting rid of me. Because I would never leave this room if I didn't think there was any hope of holding on to the happiness that I have found with you. And if you think otherwise, then you don't know me. So tell me to go, Henry, and I promise I will walk out that door and trouble you no longer.

Alex (to Henry): Fine. I'll leave. And you can live in your tower and protect your heart for the rest of your life, and nothing will ever happen to you. But, Henry... nothing will ever happen to you.

Henry: Oh, for Christ's sake, Alex! For once, I wish you could see me for who I am and not who you want me to be. Sometimes I don't think you know me at all. I'm not like you. I can't afford to be reckless. I wasn't raised by a loving, supportive family like you were. I have centuries of history bearing down on my shoulders. My life is the crown and yours is politics, and I will not trade one prison for another. I can love you and want you and... and still not want that life. I'm allowed. All right? And it doesn't make me a liar. It makes me a man with some infinitesimal shred of self-preservation, and you don't get to come in here and call me a coward for it.

Alex: I would never call you a coward. We can figure out a way to love each other on our own terms, no one else's.

Alex: Well, I'm sorry I can't turn my feelings off as easily as you.

Henry: D-Do you honestly think this is easy for me?

Alex: What else am I supposed to think? You won't talk to me. All I know is I'm the one here willing to fight for us.

Henry: Because it costs you nothing!

Alex: I've been losing my mind this week because the man I love has vanished from my life without an explanation. I flew across an ocean. I... I stormed a f**king castle to look you in the eye and tell you that I love you, knowing that you wouldn't say it back. So, no, Henry, in fact, this is costing me everything. And if this is over, I at least deserve to know why.
