The Internet Is Obsessed with This Theory That 'Love Actually' Predicted Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's Love
This is oddly compelling.
If there's one thing the internet loves more than a fairytale celebrity love story, it's an intriguing fan theory. This latest theory is about a fairytale celebrity love story and a beloved holiday classic, so naturally, people can't deal.
Twitter users have been engaging in a full-on fan freakout over the fact that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle look like grown up versions of Sam and Joanna from Love Actually, and are claiming that the romantic movie predicted their ~love~ almost 15 years ago.

There are certainly similarities between the couples. As People notes, both Sam and Harry are redheaded and British, while both Meghan and Joanna are biracial and American. There's also the fact that Sam tragically lost his mother at a young age, just like Harry, and that Joanna is a talented performer, just like Meghan.
The internet approves.
