Hallmark Channel’s Countdown to Christmas 2025 celebration kicks off with a holiday-themed murder mystery series and two brand new original movies. The first weekend of the celebration includes the network debut of Mistletoe Murders, A Royal Montana Christmas and A Christmas Angel Match.
We all love a good Christmas movie with a royal twist, but this year Hallmark is upping the ante with a royal holiday movie set in Montana. That’s exactly what you’ll get in A Royal Montana Christmas, featuring Fiona Gubelmann and Warren Christie.
What is A Royal Montana Christmas about?
Here’s the synopsis of A Royal Montana Christmas from Hallmark Channel:
“Overwhelmed by her royal duties during the Christmas season, Princess Victoria of Zelarnia is ready for a change of pace. Looking to decompress in the days leading up to Christmas, she decides to take a vacation to Peaceful Pines Ranch in Montana, where she celebrated Christmas as a child with her late father. Upon arrival, she meets her dashing guide, Huntley Blaylock, who presents her and the other guests at the ranch with a rustic experience that is far from the royal treatment.
“This Christmas, Huntley must decide if he wants to step into a leadership role and carry on the family’s ranch’s legacy as his parents, the owners, approach retirement. Unaware of her status as a princess, Huntley puts Victoria through the rigors of a Montana ranch experience. Victoria also plans to help Huntley revive the ranch’s Christmas Holly-Day Dance. Victoria finds herself charmed by both Huntley and this different pace of life.
“As the two start to fall for each other, things get complicated when Huntley discovers Victoria is a princess. As Christmas approaches and her time at the ranch comes to an end, Victoria must decide if she should return to her royal life or stay in Montana with Huntley and the ranch she has grown so fond of.”

A Royal Montana Christmas features Fiona Gubelmann (Wilfred, The Good Doctor) as Princess Victoria and Warren Christie (Crashing Through the Snow, The Watchful Eye) as Huntley.
