Love in Exile is a 1936 British romantic adventure film directed by Alfred L. Werker and starring Helen Vinson, Clive Brook and Mary Carlisle.

## Plot

The film opens with the abdication of King Regis, orchestrated by powerful businessmen who exploit his romance with a commoner named Xandra, turning it into a global scandal. Blaming herself for the king's forced departure, Xandra retreats to Holland, convinced that removing herself from his life will lead to his restoration to the throne. Meanwhile, the king seeks solace in Cannes, embracing a carefree life on the Riviera as he mourns the loss of his kingdom, hoping Xandra will join him.

As time passes, Xandra becomes determined to undo the injustice. She persuades the man responsible for his dethronement to reconsider, advocating for the king's return to power. Xandra's efforts pay off, and Regis reclaims his throne, with Xandra by his side as the new queen.
