Reality meets romance, with a little twist, in the surprising dating show I WANNA MARRY "HARRY," premiering Tuesday, May 27 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT). Summer love is in the air, as an average English "bloke" is given the royal treatment and an upper crust makeover before meeting 12 single American women searching for Prince Charming.

Join "Harry" as he courts each of the ladies, taking them on romantic dates worthy of a princess and trying to make some version of their fairytales come true.
