Three single princesses come to the UK to find a Prince Charming. Princess Sheillah falls in love, but she must now return to life as a princess and leave her loved one behind.

Three single princesses from around the world come to the UK to find Prince Charming to take back to their kingdom. To ensure the people they meet love them for themselves and not just their title, the princesses go undercover as everyday girls, living together in a house in Essex.

Without their riches and servants, it is the first time they have ever had to fend for themselves. They take on ordinary jobs in a hairdressing salon, cafe and cricket shop. And in their search for the perfect, ordinary man, they trawl the pubs, clubs and supermarkets of Essex for 'the one'.

Her Royal Highness Princess Xenia of Saxony is a descendant of one of the most powerful royal families Europe has ever known. At 22, she is a well-known celebrity in Germany, but a combination of her beauty, fame and royalty has made it difficult for her to find true love.

Her Highness Princess Aaliya of Balasinor's ancestors were ancient warriors who ruled in western India for centuries. The 35-year-old Princess has had a traditional and sheltered upbringing within a family where marriages are usually arranged. She has never been on a date before, and never had a boyfriend.

Princess Nvannungi Sheillah is from Buganda, the largest and most powerful kingdom in Uganda, presiding over five and a half million subjects. The princess is one of the most famous women in her country and has a career as a pop star.

The princesses will finally reveal their true identities to their chosen partners, but first they have to find them and time is running out. Man magnet Princess Xenia is spoilt for choice and has a dilemma about which one to pick. Having failed to find any successful dates in Essex, will Princess Aaliya find anyone to invite back to her kingdom? Against all odds, Princess Sheillah falls head over heels in love, but she must now return to life as a princess and leave her new love behind.
