LACEY CHABERT STARS WITH TWO-TIME GOLDEN GLOBE(R) AND EMMY(R) WINNING ACTRESS JANE SEYMOUR IN A MAJESTIC HOLIDAY STORY FIT FOR A QUEEN, 'A ROYAL CHRISTMAS,' A HALLMARK CHANNEL ORIGINAL MOVIE WORLD PREMIERE HOLIDAY 2014

Jane Seymour Stars Alongside Real-Life Daughter, Actress Katherine Flynn; Part of Hallmark Channel's COUNTDOWN TO CHRISTMAS, The #1 Most Treasured Holiday Destination by Television Viewers

A spirited commoner fights for acceptance from an icy queen-who just happens to be her future mother-in-law-when Lacey Chabert ("The Color of Rain," "Mean Girls") stars alongside two-time Golden Globe(R) and Emmy(R) winner Jane Seymour ("Perfectly Prudence," "Dr. Quinn: Medicine Woman"), Stephen Hagan ("Against The Dark," "The Cut") and Seymour's real-life daughter Katherine Flynn in "A Royal Christmas," premiering on Hallmark Channel Holiday 2014. The film, about a young working woman who travels to a lavish castle for Christmas only to find out her new fiancé is actually a prince, is part of Hallmark Channel's annual COUNTDOWN TO CHRISTMAS, the #1 most treasured holiday destination by television viewers.

"The tremendously talented Lacey Chabert stars alongside beloved actress Jane Seymour, whom we are pleased to welcome back to the network, in this very special, royal Christmas engagement," said Michelle Vicary, Executive Vice President, Programming for Hallmark Channel and Hallmark Movie Channel.

As the only daughter of an expert tailor in Philadelphia, Emily Corrigan (Chabert) is a kindhearted young woman proud of her blue-collar background. She is a devoted seamstress at the family business and madly in love with her doting European boyfriend, Leo (Stephen Hagan). But as their first Christmas together approaches, Leo drops a bombshell on his unsuspecting girlfriend: he is actually Prince Leopold, heir to the throne of Cordinia, a small sovereign country. Emily is in shock, but her love for Leo trumps her hesitation about his double life and they quickly fly to Cordinia to announce their engagement and spend the holidays with Leo's disapproving mother, Queen Isadora (Seymour).

Less than enthusiastic about her son's relationship with a commoner, Isadora makes Emily feel anything but welcome at their grand castle, leaving Emily to feel more at home among Isadora's staff of butlers and housemaids. As Emily struggles to adapt to her new royal surroundings, the situation is made more difficult when a scheming Isadora invites Duchess Natasha (Flynn), Leo's ex-girlfriend, to join them for Christmas. Emily sees that Natasha is a perfect match for Leo and worries she'll never measure up to Isadora's standards. Attempting to stay true to herself in a world where she clearly doesn't belong, Emily wonders if love is enough to keep her newly royal relationship from falling apart before Christmas morning.

"A Royal Christmas" is a Brad Krevoy Television Production. Brad Krevoy, Alexandre Coscas and Eric Jarboe are the executive producers. Amy Krell is the producer. Alex Zamm directed from a script by Janeen & Michael Damian and Tippi & Neal Dobrofsky.
