Ladies, remember when you were a little girl who harboured dreams of a fairy-tale marriage to a prince? Well, you too could live happily ever after, if you signed on as a contestant on ABC’s reality series “The Bachelor.”

In its new season, the network is taking 25 women to Rome, where they will turn on the charm, hike up the skirts, and – hopefully – lure in this year’s bachelor Prince Lorenzo Borghese.

If 24 other women wasn’t competition enough, the show is also throwing in two yet-to-be-identified natives from Italy for the 34-year-old prince to choose from.

Of the 25 bachelorettes making the trip across the pond, only one is Canadian – 30-year-old Sarah, a journalist from British Columbia.

The series premieres Monday at 9 p.m. EST on ABC.
