12. Belle And Adam

While Belle dazzles in her iconic yellow gown, showing that intelligence and beauty come in all shapes and sizes, Adam’s now a fuller-bodied prince, teaching us that happily-ever-after doesn’t depend on a lean, royal physique. Together, they’re challenging stereotypes and inspiring us to embrace love and acceptance, proving that true beauty lies within.
