When a star (William Baldwin) and Hollywood Diva Miranda Frayle (Jeanne Tripplehorn) break up, a playboy prince with a stiff upper lip (Colin Firth) sweeps her off her feet and boldly takes her home to meet his high-class, society-minded mother (Julie Andrews), who is none-too-pleased at the thought of having a "starlet in the family. But, when the former boyfriend hears about the wedding, he jumps back in the spotlight... and with the help of Miranda's meddling mother-in-law to be, he might just win her back.
