I'll try to translate the whole interview (and post it) this week-end. Isn't there a French student majoring in English, maybe from Fenelon, who would like to do it for practice ? (Just kidding.)
I think I have at least 2 other fun ones (as usual, it's a matter of finding them in my archives) that are worth reading, because she comes across as so unpretentious and "streetsmart" if I may say so.
By the way, I though she was a bit disingenuous when she said she was not interested in clothes, only in what brand of jeans she wanted to wear. Come on, Caroline, we know you've always been interested in clothes and what harm is there in that ? However, the fact that her mother would choose her gala gown to meet Prince Charles sounds just like what a mother would do !

thanks, iloveroyals. It would be great if you'd find other ones. Sorry to make you a lot of work to do, but so many people want to know much more about Caroline.

I'll do my best, but I am going away this week-end. It will be my assignment (labor of love !) for next week.

Sorry for procrastinating. The article and translation are on the new thread "Interviews with Caroline". There is one page I can't find, but I'll find it. Also the cover of Elle, featuring a beautiful Caroline.
All you French members, please help me with future translations !

Wonderful pics, thanks a lot, mdeledda!

Could you give us additional information about the two
occasions of the get-together, especially as to the one
with Queen Sofia and her son. That would be interesting!

Here's a clipping of the family meeting Francoise Sagon
in the 1980s -----> Pic

Thanks for the great pics. Regarding the one with Mrs. De Gaulle, I think this pic is during the time the French President and his wife visited the Princely Palace. Grace realized that the First Lady was to give Albert a rocking horse which he already has! So she instructed the nanny to hide Albert's horse, so it won't be embarrassing for Mrs. De Gaulle to go to the nursery with a photographer in tow to give the prince a toy he already has. And to Grace's relief, Albert so appreciated being given the horse (thinking it was the one the nanny hid).

Does anyone know if that is really true about her blowing off Prince Charles? Personally, I'm blown away. It seems like a very harsh thing to do and I don't want to offend anyone, but Caroline does not seem like an amicable person. If that is true about Prince Charles I can see why the British royal family has taken the stance they have about associating with other royals.

Did her family ever try to set her up with anyone else? After that I assume no, but its funny she is now married to the King/Prince of Hanover.

Why does Caroline hate the press so much? Why does she refuse to do interviews?
