Anyone know of a story where the Princess RESCUES and marries a Peasant?

Not holding my breath, but I might as well ask, eh?

Closest thing to it I know would by Burrough's work made into a movie in "John Carter of Mars," since a princess of Mars marries a Virginia cavalryman that had nothing when he was there.

Edited to add:

Disney's movie Tangled has the princess rescuing the peasant thief frequently (with the help of a horse!).

Thanks for the links. And... Disney did that? And to think I started liking them after they fixed Marvel. I guess I should start watching their animated movies again.

Which Duke and Duchess? My memory of Windsor tells me that the Duchess was Wallis Simpson, an American woman, who went to marry a King.

I actually have one partially written. It's entitled "The Rose Petal Princess". If and when I ever finish writing it, I'll let you know. I don't think it's a suitable thing for here though. It's a novel.

Warwick Castle - a historic attraction and a theme park - has Kingmaker and Princess Tower. The kids get to dress up and learn how to behave.

The Knights get lessons in how to wear armour, courtesy and how to use a sword. The aim is to put Warwick on the throne - they fail.

The Princesses get lessons in how to use a sword, how to walk in long dresses and how to curtsey. The aim is to rescue their prince. They succeed.

Boys can go to the Princess Tower and wear fancy gowns. Girls can go to Kingmaker and wear armour. Many kids want to do both.

Interesting you say that. I am finishing a longer piece and I’m trying to decide if it should go here...
