When Royalty meets Reality, hearts are tested

iWant expands its lineup of original microdramas with its first 2026 release, “Runaway Love,” which follows the unlikely romance and journey between a Filipina domestic helper and an exiled prince brought together by war and survival.

In her first lead role, Analain Salvador plays Jane, a young Filipina domestic helper working at a palace in the Kingdom of Alvar to serve the royal family and Prince Tim (played by “PBB Kumunity Season 10 – 4th Big Placer”, Rob Blackburn), a privileged royal heir whose life turned upside down when a civil war topples the ruling family.

Facing certain death, Jane helps Prince Tim escape the country and brings him to her impoverished hometown in the Philippines, where he must leave behind his former life of wealth and privilege.

While in hiding, Tim adjusts to working-class Filipino life, and an unexpected romance develops between him and Jane. Their attempt at a new life is threatened when an assassin loyal to the new regime tracks them down, intent on eliminating the remaining royal bloodline.

Don’t miss the premiere of “Runaway Love” on iWant coming this Thursday (January 15).
