April 6, 2011— -- In the News: Many girls dream of the day they will marry their prince. Five months ago, Kate Middleton was proposed to by her prince, Prince William, sending the world into swirling speculation about all of the day-of details. The royal affair will be held on April 29 in London's Westminster Abbey, and it is said to be the most anticipated ceremony since the Prince of Wales married Lady Diana Spencer in 1981.

The Scenario: But not all proposals end in a happy "I do." Especially when the lady being proposed to is hiding a secret of her own: another lover. What would you do if you witnessed a man about to propose to someone who was obviously being unfaithful? Would you step in and stop him from making a potentially devastating mistake? Our actor plays a nervous boyfriend about to propose to his girlfriend, another actor, who is conflicted by her feelings for a second lover. Our "What Would You Do?" hidden cameras are rolling at Holsten's Confectionery in Bloomfield, N.J. If you knew the bride-to-be was unfaithful, would you interfere?

What They Said:

"It's a big day, I plan on asking her to marry me."

"Hey baby, what's going on? I told you not to call me right now."
