galisteo, it does seem that Caroline and Stephanie are very affectionate with their children and that Stephanie is quite affectionate with her nieces and nephews (and vice-versa). Rainier appears to be a very sweet grandpapa as well. I think the squabbling goes on between Caroline and Stephanie.

It seems that way, which is very good for the children, and the rest of the family.

Photo 1. Princess Grace with children in garden of Marchais- 1968.

Photo 2. On some official function..Albert with round glasses..

 

[LadyMacAlpine]

I hadn't seen those pictures that I recall. A nice loving family. Wish Princess Graces children all three of them could have the same type of marriage that held together by love and commitment as partners through the memory of her beauty in her heart they still stand together as a family even in the hard times. The true meaning of a family you can see.

 

[smdouglas]

I suggest you go to http://www.gouv.mc/PortGb (click on News and then International). Albert does quite a bit of travel...some of the travel is for state visits.

Some more family - pictures :

Great pictures Michelle! I really like the one of Grace, Caroline, Ranier and Stephanie where Stephanie is sitting on Ranier's lap. They just seem so very happy and just like any other family. Very sweet.

 

[kittencrews]

aww... i love the picture of stephanie and charlotte... that is VERY sweet!

 

[Ianna]

I agree with others for photos! You always have a great galleries of them..

I wonder do you have some photos of Caroline with Stephanie's children which aren't official?..that photos seems to be very rare...

I post a photo of Caro & Steph from same skiing holidays..having a great fun..

 

[michelle]

Holiday with Caro, Steph and the kids ....

 

[Gabriella]

Great pictures Michelle! Thanks for posting them. I just can't get over how much better Stephanie looks with lighter hair. I think it would do her a world of difference to get rid of that jet black hair. It makes her look so severe and much older than she should.

 

[LadyMacAlpine]

Beautiful pictures indeed. I've seen them before of Albert and the kids they just effected me more this time. He deserves the best a woman has to offer.

Prince Albert

I must say you, with respect, that I don't like the Prince Albert's life. He seems to be a play boy ... I thin he should be more worried about the kingdom and not on women ...

The same could have been said about Rainier back in the 1950's but not so much publicly.

 

[semisquare]

so anglada
now dont be a h8er be nice, remember if he was a non royal working 5 to 9 do u think he would have models, actoresses wanting to marry him? think about it, be happy u have people who want to be in your company because they like u not because of what they can get from u

I commend his charity work as I was a director of development and fundraising for non-profit organizations, and it is a very tough job. It definitely is not as glamourous as some people believe. You could work 60 hours a week, and then have to be "fresh" for an event when you just wanted to snap at anyone, and all because they associate you with that event or cause.

 

[kittencrews]

Even though my question doesn't have anything to do with Family Pictures this is a hot topic right now and I figured this thread would probably be the best place to get my answer.

Last night I was watching The Story of Grace Kelly and I have seen it many times before but I never noticed when "Rainier" and "Grace" are being interviewed after they announced their engagement one reporter asked "Is it true you will be the most titled woman in the world?" and Rainier answers "yes, with 52 titles" does anyone know these titles?? Thanks for the help! Also does anyone know how many titles Caroline has? I've only seen HSH Princess Caroline of Monaco and now HRH Caroline Princess of Hannover Duchess of Luneburg and Brunswick and Royal Princess of Great Britain.

 

[LadyMacAlpine]

Here are some. His full titles and styles are His Serene Highness Rainier III, Prince of Monaco, Duc de Valentinois, Marquis des Baux, Comte de Carlades, Baron de Buis, Seigneur de Saint-Rémy, Sire de Matignon, Comte de Thorigny, Baron de Saint-Lô, de la Luthumière et de Hambye, Duc d'Estouteville, de Mazarin et de Mayenne, Prince de Château-Porcien, Comte de Ferrette, de Belfort, de Thann et de Rosemont, Baron d'Altkirch, Seigneur d'Isenheim, Marquis de Chilly, Comte de Longjumeau, Baron de Massy, Marquis de Guiscard.

 

[pigzilla]

Correct me if I am wrong, but I think I remember a few weeks ago hearing that Queen Elizabeth II had the second most titles after a Sultan somewhere. I will see if I can find it.

 

[wittykitty]

I thought Caroline can't stand to be around Steph ? Why go on vacation with a sibling you supposedly can't stand and disaprove of their life style choice and include your kids?

Okay, and I am not saying that at that time that is was not true the Princess Grace was the most titled woman of the world. I saw the movie too and remember that scene and was shocked because I had just read somewhere that it was now someone else.
