The Queen’s cousin Princess Olga Romanoff has reportedly joined the line-up for a celebrity detox show.

The E4 reality programme, with the working title The Big Celebrity Detox, sees stars test alternative therapies and wacky wellness trends, including drinking their own urine.

The show is thought to be a new commission for the Married At First Sight UK broadcaster and is said to be airing in 2023.

As well as Princess Olga, other famous faces rumoured to be trying out procedures, that could include bee-sting acupuncture, are Love Island’s Megan Barton-Hanson and Toby Aromolaran.

The 72-year-old, who is a Russian princess and a descendant of the House of Romanov, is a distant cousin of Queen Elizabeth II and currently resides in Provender House in Kent.

It would not be the first time the Royal has been on our screens as in 2005 she appeared on reality show Australian Princess and Channel 4 documentary The Royal House of Windsor.

A TV insider told The Sun said: ‘Princess Olga was a huge signing for The Big Celebrity Detox and certainly brought a regal air to proceedings.

‘She had no airs and graces and threw herself into all the different therapies, which included some stars having to down their own wee.

‘Olga was filming the show when the Queen passed away and that was really difficult for her. She was her cousin and she was given some time off from filming to watch the funeral service.
