Season 2 ended with enough dramatic jewels to ďŹ ll a crown, and the pièce de rĂŠsistance was the shocking revelation that Prince Robert (new series regular Max Brown) is alive! Season 3 picks up with the Lazarus-like prince on a deserted island, King Cyrus (Jake Maskall) ďŹ ghting cancer, and Prince Liam (William Moseley) and Princess Eleanor (Alexandra Park) ďŹ&#x201A;oundering after orchestrating the public assassination of their fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s murderer. And Queen Helena (Elizabeth Hurley) is still conniving and comely in couture, and has a plan to return her children to the British throne.
