For those of you needing a Hans Christian Andersen refresher course, The Princess and the Pea is a fairy tale in which an unknown girl is able to prove her royal lineage by the fact that she is sensitive enough to feel a single dried pea under several layers of mattresses, featherbeds, and other ticking.
The Princess and the Pea was later adapted into an incredibly charming musical called Once Upon a Mattress, and I prefer that version to the original Andersen fairy tale, but either way, the Real Princess thingie originates there.
