The Countess Reveals How to Land a Prince in Seven Steps

Could the next Royal Wedding be your own? Maybe, if you follow LuAnn de Lesseps' formula for finding Prince Charming.

So, how does one land on the royal radar? By hopping the next flight to Europe, of course. "You're not going to find royalty here. Save your money and instead of going to the Caribbean, go to Italy and France and see the world. You never know who you'll meet," the Real Housewives of New York City star tells PopEater.

Step two on your path to your own sparkling vintage tiara (presuming you don't already own one): do your homework! "Knowing your history is key when it comes to wooing men from other countries. You need to be knowledgeable and quick," the mom of two says.

And don't be too concerned if your family tree isn't dripping with fancy crowns. "You must be comfortable with who you are. Kate Middleton is a great example of a commoner who just has such good energy and is so positive," the 'Wife spills. "That is really attractive to a royal."

Finally, stay patient, ladies. "We all know how long Kate waited for her prince to finally propose," L states. "These royal men take their sweet time."
