Queen Clarisse Reveals that Mia is the Princess of Genovia ｜ The Princess Diaries ｜ Freeform

Amelia, have you ever heard of Edouard Christophe Philippe Girard Rinaldi? He was the crown prince of Genovia. Edouard Christophe Philippe Girard Rinaldi was your father. Yeah, sure, my father was the prince of Genovia. Uh-huh, you're joking. Why would I joke about something like that? No, no, because if he's really a prince, then I'm... Exactly, you're not just Amelia Thermopolis. You are Amelia Minionette Thermopolis Rinaldi, princess of Genovia. Me? Princess? Shut up, I beg your pardon, shut up. Your majesty, in America it doesn't always mean be quiet. Here it could mean wow gee whiz golly wally. Oh, I understand, thank you. Nevertheless, you are the princess, and I am queen Clarice Reynaud. Why on earth would you pick me to be your princess? Since your father died, you are the natural heir to the throne of Genovia. That's our law. I'm royal by marriage, you are royal by blood. You can rule. Rule? Oh no, oh no, no, no, no, now you have really got the wrong girl. I never lead anybody, not at, not at brownies, not at campfire girls. Um, I think Clarice, my expectation in life is to be invisible, and I'm good at it. Amelia, I had other expectations also. In my wildest dreams, I never expected this to happen. But you are the legal heir, the only heir to the Genovian throne, and we will accept the challenge of helping you become the princess that you are. Oh, I can give you books. You will study languages, history, art, political science. I can teach you to walk, talk, sit, stand, eat, dress like a princess. Given time, I think you'll find the palace in Genovia a very pleasant place to live. Living in Genovia? It's a wonderful country, Amelia, really. Whoa, whoa, just rewind and freeze. I'm no princess. I'm still waiting for normal body parts to arrive. I refuse to move to and rule a country, and do you know another reason? I don't want to be a princess. Amelia, Amelia, Amelia, come back here.
