who does princess mia end up marrying in the books
The Princess Diaries Another central plot line of the books is Mia's relationship with Michael Moscovitz, Lilly's older brother. Mia finally admits her feelings to Michael in Princess in Love, and to her delight, he reciprocates. Their relationship survives obstacles such as their age difference and Mia's (often overwrought) anxieties until Princess on the Brink, when Michael decides to move to Japan to develop his prototype for a robot arm that would allow doctors to perform open heart surgery. In an attempt to keep him in the city, Mia proposes sex, but is upset to find out that he lost his virginity to Judith Gershner, a former classmate, before they began dating. Angry and heartbroken, she breaks up with him by returning the snowflake necklace that he gave her on her fifteenth birthday in Princess In Pink, but quickly regrets the decision. However, when she accidentally kisses J.P., their relationship ends for good. In Princess Mia, Mia confides in her therapist, Dr. Knutz, about feeling inferior to Michael, whom she expected to dump her for someone better, and admits that she overreacted about Judith in order to dump Michael first. She attempts to salvage her romantic relationship with Michael; he refuses, but they become friends again. Michael is hinted to have been abstinent during his tenure in Japan and later returns to New York as a multi-millionaire in Forever Princess. Despite the fact that she is now dating J.P., Mia remains in love with Michael; during a horse-carriage ride in Central Park, they kiss, and he tells her that he never stopped loving her. They reunite towards the end of the book, and he eventually becomes her consort in Royal Wedding.
