Prince Harry has been caught up in a cruel TV sting that has tricked a dozen American women into believing they are competing for the royal's hand in marriage.

Fox network's 'I Wanna Marry Harry' whisked 12 women to a fancy estate in England under the impression that they have a chance to marry the 29-year-old royal who is actually Harry's lookalike Matthew Hicks, News.com.au reported.

The Ryan Seacrest-produced show will see the ladies vying for "Harry's" heart, assuming none of them figure out he's not the real deal.

The official description for the show states that an average English 'bloke' is given the royal treatment and a makeover before meeting 12 single American women searching for Prince Charming and convincing them he's regal.
