A look back: Pregnancies - Monaco

[marilla]

Aside from the miscarriage she had in Canada in 1960, was Grace pregnant any other times (besides 1956/7, 1957/8 and 1964/5)?
Some sources claim a second pregnancy and miscarriage before Stephanie, some after and the rest ignore it.

Ann

She was pregnant in 1967. At Expo (Canada) she had miscarriage. After this miscarriage she couldn't have more children. I read that she was pregnant 2 times in early 60-s (before 1963).

1962 and 1967.i read it in a biography of grace.poor grace! she loved children.and she wanted a little sister or brother for baby-stephanie.

My booboo. It was 1962 that I read about. I think there is a photo somewhere on this forum that has a caption of "Princess Grace leaves XXX hospital in Montreal after miscarriage". Its of Grace getting into a car with either Caroline or Albert holding her hand and Rainier on the other side of the car.

Three? Poor Grace indeed. I'm sure she wanted Albert to have a brother.

Boy, what a what-if there! His brother could be married and have children and Rainier might not have changed the constitution. Then we'd all be watching Prince Brother's family to see if Albert was going to pass the crown to him!

poor grace.i couldn´t smile after a miscarriage.

I's very sad because she wanted this child so much and everybody knew that she was pregnant.

Princess Grace with Husband Holding Princess Stephanie
Original caption: Nanny Looking. London: While Prince Rainier holds two-and-a-half-year-old Stephanie, Princess Grace flashes a smile on the royal couple's arrival here at Victoria Station. The Monaco royalty is en route to Expo '67, but Princess Grace, eho is expecting her fourth child, made the stopover to interview prospective nannies.

 

[tigerlilly2005]

i think princess grace had such a hard life.i wouldn´t like to be in her situation.

 

[Suonymona]

She reminds me of Jackie Kennedy Onassis in that she was good at keeping up appearances. Both were very loyal and while some things have come out since their deaths, most people (especially those around Grace) are still so true to them (Grace and Jackie) and their memories that the idea of telling-all is appalling, let alone the actual doing.

I want to be the type of person who inspires that kind of friendship and love.

Hola - Pregnant with Andrea - March 1984

Wonderful findings, tbhrc. The first clippings belong to the Rose Ball 1984, so you could make a link to the Rose Ball thread On the second clippings you can see her wonderful and special pregnancy fashion. Take a look at the pair of gloves she wears..
