I love your screencaps stories, Iceflower! Hope there are more to come..

This could be photo from family's private garden party too, back in summer of 1957. Princess Grace holding baby Caroline, Prince Rainier with Princess Antoinette's younger daughter Christine Alix, while older Elisabeth Ann is standing, Princess Antoinette, young Swiss nurse, family's priest, and don't know who is that other man.

I'm glad you liked the screencaps, Radker and Ianna

And Ianna, your pic is wonderful and so rare, thanks a lot!
I think it's not been taken at a normal garden party, but after Christine Alix's first Holy Communion, she wears that special dress and flowers in her hair and there are those two priests..I don't know but that might be possible

From a video report about one former Nanny of Caro, Albert and Steph :

Baby Stephanie


Caro and Steph ...


The three of them....


Sweet Steph


In Caro's arms...


The video ( it's at the end of the show)

The nanny talks about the kids...that they sng and played together, that she helped Caro and Albert with their homework and that Stephanie was like a daughter for her....

Great pictures Michelle :) I wonder if the nanny interviewed was Maureen King? My favorite pic is the one of the 3 of them dressed up like in the 19th century.

Wonderful screencaps, Michelle, thanks a lot for making and sharing them! My favourites are the ones of extremely cute baby Steph and the one of Steph and Caro reading books in bed - too funny: the two thumbsuckers nearly look like twins..

It must have been a special time in her life - what a responsibility! I understand she loved Stephanie that much (she was virtually hugging Stephanie in the video, did you see that?) - Steph was (is) very sweet and lovely and cute.

Thank you Michelle for this link!
