As the British police and worldwide royal watchers become increasingly intoxicated with the cult of celebrity, this episode explores the extraordinary unintended consequences of this obsession.

Their every move is followed by the world's press and just as their mother Princess Diana found, the press is at its most intrusive in the area of their love lives.

Jorge Gestoso Investiga Especial: William y Harry: Su Futuro (Jorge Gestoso Investiga: Prince William and Harry, Into the Future) Premiering Friday, April 29, 2011, at 9pm and again Sunday, (ET) Explores the world of the celebrity surrounding the young royals and their elite circle of friends, who gain as much profile in the press as today's pop idols, fashion icons and film stars but live in the constant public gaze.

Kate and Letizia: Dos Princesas Reales, (Kate and Letizia Two Royal Princesses) premiering Thursday, April 28 at 11:00pm (ET) delves into the lives and love affairs of two modern-day princesses – one from Spain and the other from England -- and their relationships to their princes. Through privy insights from close friends and royal family experts, the special looks at how each of the couples met, fell in love and overcame the extraordinary challenges that arise when a everyday woman captures the heart of a prince.

In addition, Vme celebrates another great royal romance by premiering exclusively the extraordinary mini-series Felipe and Letizia on Estelares Vme from Monday, April 25 through Wednesday at 9:00pm or Thursday, April 28 at 9:00pm (ET).  At a dinner party in Madrid, a prominent TV reporter named Letizia Ortiz meets the man of her dreams – Felipe de Borbon, the heir to the Spanish throne. Letizia is a modern, independent-minded woman who doesn't fit the royal mold which makes the couple an unlikely match.  Felipe's parents King Juan Carlos and Queen Sofia shudder at the thought of having a divorced commoner as a daughter-in-law and Spain's future queen. Felipe and Letizia must overcome these obstacles and more for true love to reign.
