What happened to I Wanna Marry Harry on FOX?

If you’re asking what happened to I Wanna Marry Harry you are part of a distinct club of viewers who were watching the reality ruse that had 12-American women thinking they could be dating the real Prince Harry. The man courting the ladies was actually 24-year-old Matthew Hicks (or as we’ve been calling him “FPH” or fake Prince Harry), who was schooled — and quite successful — in looking and acting like the redheaded royal. FOX canceled the series on Wednesday, June 11 due to dismal ratings (the show was apparently pulling less than 1 million viewers). For viewers dying […]

This weekly mockery follows a group of American woman who are simply giddy over the possibility that they could win the heart of a mysterious Brit who they believe is Prince Harry (played quite eloquently by the no-royal-blood-in-this-guy Matthew Hicks). In last night’s episode, kudos go to Kimberely Birch (pictured), 23, for making two big milestones. The first, and it’s a big one, was the realization during a self-confessional that no one in […]

I Wanna Marry Harry Recap: Meet the ladies looking for their prince charming

May 20, 2014 Barb Oates

When it comes to prank TV shows, the premiere episode of FOX’s I Wanna Marry ‘Harry’ proved to be deliciously silly entertainment. It was hard to look away as 12 American single ladies slowly started to believe they actually could have a shot to win the love of Prince Harry. In the premiere episode [Tuesday, May 20, 2014], the gals were introduced to a high-profile English gent referred to as “Sir.” In fairness, their introduction to this mystery man was first from afar via security guards and a helicopter arrival on an extravagant English castle’s back lawn. Surely the security, […]
