Ever wonder what a prince likes to do in his downtime? Kip Pardue, who romances Nora Zehetner in "Princess," talks about his experiences on the set and what he likes to do when he's not hanging with royalty.

"Princess" is a treat to look at, but Kip says it was tough to make. "The castle was open to the public throughout filming, so dealing with tourists and long nights made for a rather tedious shoot. That said, it was pretty darn fun to run around a castle in the middle of the night ... and take your meals in a forgotten bedroom of some real-life princess."

But when he's not running around a castle, Kip spends his downtime motorcycling. He loves to race! He also loves to cook and even went to culinary school about six years ago. (He cooks for 20 people every Thanksgiving!) OTOH, Kip also plays in a rugby league ... and he tries to find pickup football games on the beach three days a week.

Wow, a guy who races motorcycles, plays rugby, cooks up storm, and is hot enough to be arm candy for a princess? Is this guy for real??? We can't wait to see him work it when "Princess" premieres on Sunday, April 20 at 8/7c. Want to see more? check out the Princess trailer.

Would you rather have Thanksgiving dinner at Kip's, or go for a ride on the back of his bike?
