In the fall of 2006, Borghese starred in the ninth season of ABC's reality show The Bachelor.

In the summer of 2009, Borghese announced he would be searching for his "princess" on a web reality show titled America's Next Princess. The show was to coincide with the launch of Royal Pet Club, an online shopping website for his Royal Treatment pet products. However, when the show debuted online on August 17, 2009, the series was revealed to actually be a spoof of celebrities and reality TV shows.

In August and September 2012, he appeared on the 10th season of Celebrity Big Brother UK and was evicted from the house on Day 22, ultimately finishing in 8th place.
