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 the princesses 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'.

Narrated by Russell Tovey, The Undercover Princesses is an entertaining factual entertainment series that follows the hilarious and compelling antics of three very different royals on one extraordinary quest.

The Undercover Princesses arrive in the UK to start their search for the perfect man... in Essex. To help them meet ordinary men who will love them for themselves and not for their royal status, the princesses take on regular jobs in a hairdressing salon, café and a cricket shop.  Initially they have mixed fortunes on the dating scene. Whilst confident Princess Xenia is a big hit with the Essex boys, picky Princess Sheillah and shy Princess Aaliya struggle more with Western-style dating. But things look up when Princess Xenia celebrates her 23rd birthday with a karaoke night... and surprise stripper!  And the princesses even brave a big Saturday night out dressed as 'real' Essex girls.
