In the Hallmark Movie Royal Hearts, a gorgeous young woman named Kelly Pavlik (Cindy Busby) and her country rancher father Hank Pavlik learn that Hank has inherited an estate in a foreign land. (It’s shot in real life Romania). Kelly and Hank leave their rural home in Montana to move into the fancy castle and realize that Hank (who is the opposite of fancy) is now King of Merania. Meanwhile, Kelly falls for the nice and hardworking royal stable guy Alex (Andrew Cooper). King Hank is portrayed by 6’4″ tall actor James Brolin. Brolin is the father of actor Josh Brolin and husband of singer/actress/director/producer Barbra Streisand (see below).
