Oh, "Secret Princes," (Fri. at 10:00 p.m. Et on TLC) what are we going to do with you? Prince Lorenzo de' Medici of Italy is determined to find love in the Lonestar State, but he's going about it all wrong, the silly squirrel. Actually, he may find the language barrier plays in his favor, as everyone thinks it's charming when he says he's good at the sexy, and this probably sounds even less smooth in his native tongue.

TLC had a cult hit on its hands when the network aired "Secret Princes," a British-made docu-series that followed international royalty who moved to a small town in England. Now the network is bringing the reality series to America, as a new group of royals head to Atlanta to find love.
Lord Robert Walters and the Honourable Ludovic Watson of the U.K. join Prince Francisco of Spain and Prince Salauddin Babi of India as they take on aliases and crappy, low-paying jobs while they hunt for women who will love them for their personalities, not their titles.
Zap2it has an exclusive sneak peek at the superteaser for the five-episode series. Check it out below, along with bios of the four royals. It might be too early to play favorites, but if Lord Walters (or "Tate Morgan," as he's known to Georgia) approached us in a bar we would definitely take notice.

With the show premiering tonight, we asked for your questions earlier this week for a Q&A with Lord Robert -- and now, we've got his responses!See what he's looking for in the perfect woman -- and if he prefers blondes over brunettes.1.)

Were you nervous about deceiving the women on the show? Trust is the foundation of a good marriage.I believe that trust is the true foundation of any kind of relationship, be it friends, family and husbands or wives, without trust you really have nothing.
