Prime Video’s Red, White & Royal Blue has the potential to be a modern classic of rom-coms. Its leads have impeccable chemistry, and the story could warm even the most hardened of hearts. However, perhaps its biggest triumph is how well it executes one of the genre’s most beloved tropes — enemies to lovers.Couples that follow this trope typically have a few big things in common. Obviously, they start the story absolutely hating each other. However, after an unlikely incident that unites them on common ground, they realize that perhaps, their poor opinions were ill-founded — and in the process of overcoming them, they fall in love. Alex and Henry exemplify nearly every major aspect of the trope, and it makes the film work even better than it already did.Like all the best enemies to lovers, Alex and Henry have a real reason to dislike one another. They’ve hated each other since the first time they met. At one of the first events Alex attended as the First Son of the United States, Henry brushed off his attempts to befriend him. Alex really needed someone to support him during his difficult transition to life in the public eye, and he took Henry’s ignorance as a sign that he certainly wasn’t going to be finding any solace in the prince. He’s held it against Henry ever since. Henry, perceiving this, despised Alex in return. Though it’s built entirely on a misunderstanding, it’s perfectly reasonable that the two boys wouldn’t care for each other.RELATED: 10 Most Romantic Alex and Henry Moments in Red, White and Royal Blue
