Too bad Louis wasn't in the Loges obviously.

My siblings and cousins were at the match too. They said Louis would go as well.

I might just be overly impressed because I'm so used to see the Windsors being so cold in public. I think the only time I saw Queen Elizabeth II cry in public was when her yacht was decommissioned!

Can anyone possibly tell me if there are going to be any more events in Monaco on Sunday or are all the main celebrations for Albert's 'coronation' taking place on Saturday only?

Thanks! :)

I agree with you on the emotion-thing. I too think that's what makes this family special. They're always showing what everybody should know: They're only people.

About the festivities: Tomorrow afternnon there will be some celebration by young Monegasques which will be attended by Albert and Stephanie.

I love the way little Pater Penzo "lives" the match. I never knew he was such a football fan

At the dinner held last night before the fireworks show you could see: Stephanie (with a black halter dress with her hair pulled back), Caroline (with a purple poncho over her dress), Alexandra (with a brown coat), Charlotte (she was wearing a jacket over her dress), Pierre, and Elizabeth Ann De Massey.

I gave my opinion on page 11 or 12. I also explained about the tears. It was during the prayer for the prince. Very special moment in Monegasque mass.

I'm not sure whether he will show for te beginning of "no finish line" tomorrow. It is not official part of the celebrations, he supports it. There are a lot of things going on at present. Monday Steph will start sth at 9.00h in the morning at Carrefour for fight aids and then we are already into the preps for xmas. So end of year = always busy in MC.

Where have you seen this. Do you have any pics? That would be so great...

Default Stephanie looks terrific
Amazing!! Stephanie really pulled it together today: fashionable, sexy and formal.
That suit was the best outfit she has worn in ages if not ever.
The accessories were perfect. Whoever (Buyer, dresser, stylist etc) advised her is to be rewarded or promoted whatever!> I look forward to seeing more of this new Steph.

Charlotte on the other hand wore something way too "mature" for her age. SImply too much - I get the impression she is trying to copy her mom;s style. OK Mom has style but she is almost 30 years older....

I thought Charlotte's dress made her look like a little girl going to church on Easter sunday. The dress made her look about 10 years old instead of 19.

I saw some footage from last night's dinner on TV, I agree it would be great if we had more pics from last night, because they all looked stunning.

Charlotte was very talkative with her escort while making her arrival.

Stephanie was also talking a lot with Elizabeth Ann.

And Caroline was like explaining something to Alexandra while the fireworks were going on. Elizabeth Ann was next to Caroline during the fireworks.

Pierre has really grown. Wow. From Nerd to major babe. He seems like the most fun of all the royals. He really won me over today. He was always laughing, smiling, and got on well with everyone. I wonder what happened to his hand.

I don't know about the tiara , but I believe the guests are expected to stay for the opera and leave tomorrow.

I'm not sure Stephanie attends the Opera tonight. Hate to say that - but she's not really the prototype of an opera-fan ... but wait wait we'll see -
well I hope she goes - I want that soooo bad. Please Stephie-Babe do it for me , pleaseeeeeeeeeeee :o:p

Both sisters's (Steph and Caroline) facial skin look so worn out especially Stephanie's..Women at their age have better skin..

I like the dress of Stephanie..

I find Andrea a bit snobbish and sorry to his fans, he is ugly for my standards....
