Red, White & Royal Blue (2023) Quotes

Henry: Is there any part of you that... wishes you weren't the son of the president? Or that your family wasn't in politics?

Alex: I actually wish I could help more. It's gonna be a tough campaign.

Henry: You really do love it, don't you?

Alex: Yeah, I really do. To devote your life to helping others? To know that what you do has a meaningful impact on people's lives? I know it's my life's work.

Alex: I can't believe how wrong I was about you.

Henry: Most people are.

Alex: There's something I've been dying to ask you.

Henry: Which other famous boys have I shagged?

Alex: There's two things I've been dying to ask you.

Henry: All right, let's start with the first.

Alex: Do you have a last name?

Henry: Actually, I have several. The official family name is Hanover-Stuart. My father's surname was Fox. So my full name is Henry George Edward James Hanover-Stuart Fox.

Alex (whistles): And I thought Alexander Gabriel Claremont-Diaz was a mouthful.

Henry: He is.

Henry: We just have to keep it very casual, of course.

Alex: Oh.

Henry: Okay, wait a minute. No, that's not what I meant when I...

Alex: Get over yourself, Your Majesty.

Henry: It's "Your Royal Highness." I don't know how many times I have to tell you that.

Alex: Just to... put it out there...

Henry: Yes?

Alex: I guess you could say I'm... bisexual. Yeah.

Henry: Noted. Ah. Just to put it out there, I am... as gay as a maypole. (Alex starts laughing) What?

Alex: I have no idea what a maypole is.

Henry: Maypole. Right.

Alex: Are they known for their homosexual tendencies?

Henry: Oh, oh, God, yes. Notorious. Notorious for it.

Alex: I really thought you hated me.

Henry: I hated how good you looked.

Alex: Here's what we're gonna do.

Henry: Yes, tell me.

Alex: You're gonna stay at least 500 feet away from me for the rest of the night.

Henry: Sensible plan.

Alex: I'm not done.

Henry: Of course you're not.

Alex: Then at midnight, you're gonna come to my room on the second floor of the residence where I'm going to do some very bad things to you.

Alex: So are you still...?

Henry: Like Stonehenge.

Alex: Your Royal Hardness. Or Big Ben.

Henry: Nelson's Column.

Henry: Do you ever wonder who you'd be if you were... an anonymous person in the world?

Alex: I was an anonymous, working-class kid for most of my life. And then my mom became president. Who would you be?

Henry: I'd be a writer. Live in Paris. I'd certainly date more.

Alex: Yeah, 'cause it's so hard for a prince to get a date.

Henry: People I date don't interest me, and the people who interest me, I can't date.

Alex: Oh, my God, Henry, I have no idea what you're talking about.

Henry: Christ, you're as thick as it gets.

(Henry kisses Alex passionately)

Alex: You're expected at my New Year's party.

Henry: No, I hate New Year's.

Alex: Wow. Most people would kill to get an invite to my party.

Henry: That's perfect. Then kill me and I won't have to go.
