While we're very elated with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's engagement announcement, there still a few of us whose daydreams of being married to a prince  have been crushed; the doomed end to our Cinderella story.

Luckily enough, there are still quite a few princes in the market that can sweep you off your feet. According to Elle, here are the top five of the most eligible, swoon-worthy princes that you can marry.

1. Crown Hussein bin Abdullah of Jordan

The 23-year-old son of Queen Rania doesn't only possess the royal genes, he's also got an active following of 1.1 million on Instagram. He also usually posts photos with friends like Angela Merkel (no big deal!) and can sometimes be seen doing charitable work, playing football and boxing. Did we mention he even looks great in a casual t-shirt?

2. Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum

Apart from being royalty, Dubai's Crown Prince - popularly known as Fazza - is also a huge Instagram celebrity. The 35-year-old has 5.9 million followers and enjoys horse riding, falconry, cycling, extreme sports and even poetry. On your way Romeo, we've got a prince in town.

3. Prince Sébastien of Luxembourg

The 25-year-old army officer is the youngest of the five siblings, which means he will probably never be king. But marrying him means you'll get to enjoy a whole lot of climbing, skiing and swimming . If you don't fancy moving to a small country, the Prince might ask you to pick one because he loves "discovering new cultures."

4. Prince Jean Christophe Napoléan Bonaparte

Yes, that's right. The 31-year-old is a descendant of Napoléan which practically makes him an emperor. The prince also has a LinkedIn profile and we're already looking for mutual connections.

5. Prince Joachim of Belgium

Just like Prince Sébastien of Luxembourg, this Belgian prince isn't likely to sit on the throne either. Being a wandering Sagittarian, Prince Joachim has taken his place in the Belgium navy.

Brace yourselves ladies, this might be your perfect fairy tale ending as even Ariel met Prince Eric at sea before they went on to live happily ever after.
