  1. This sounds so interesting! “Secret Society of Second Born Royals” reminds me of Princess Diaries, because both girls are supposed to become royalty, but both are rebellious in the beginning. #DisneyVacayGiveaway

  2. Meh. Another rebellious princess movie. The only plot twist is there are super powers. It’s a hard pass from me. #DisneyVacayGiveaway
