Love, Rosie is a 2014 British-German romantic comedy-drama film directed by Christian Ditter and written by Juliette Towhidi, based on the 2004 novel Where Rainbows End by Irish author Cecelia Ahern. The film stars Lily Collins, Sam Claflin, Tamsin Egerton, Suki Waterhouse, Jaime Winstone and Lily Laight.
Alex and Rosie have been best friends for almost as long as they can remember. On Rosie's 18th birthday party Alex kisses Rosie, who is drunk, and realises that he has romantic feelings for her. However, the day after her 18th birthday, Rosie is upset about having got drunk, and tells Alex that she wishes the night had never happened. Alex interprets this as Rosie just wanting to be friends.
Greg, the "fittest guy in their year", asks Rosie to the school dance. She originally intended to go with Alex but accepts Greg's offer when she learns that Alex is thinking about going with a girl named Bethany. After the dance, Rosie has sex with Greg, but the condom slips off inside her.
Rosie gets accepted to a hotel management course at Boston University. She rushes to tell Alex but finds him having sex with Bethany, which causes her to vomit. She discovers that she is pregnant. She refuses to tell Alex, fearing that he will forego his chance to study at Harvard to help take care of her. After Alex leaves for America she gives birth to a daughter, whom she names Katie. Alex learns of Rosie's pregnancy from Bethany and becomes Katie's godfather.
Five years later, Rosie visits Alex in Boston and they spend a night together talking and visiting places. The following morning, she discovers that his girlfriend is pregnant. She understands that Alex's living situation was not proper and tries to discuss it with him, but he rebuffs her, saying that at least their kid is going to have both parents. Infuriated, Rosie leaves Boston immediately. She reconciles with Greg, who had initially fled to Ibiza upon learning of her pregnancy, and eventually the two marry. She later learns that Alex split from his girlfriend after discovering that the baby wasn't his. When Rosie's father dies, Alex attends the funeral of Rosie's father and reconciles with her, whereas Greg behaves immaturely at the funeral.
