I have a feeling she's THE ONE... He must be very serious about her to have her with him at a world event where he would have to introduce her to heads of state, etc...
I think he is a very careful person----He wouldn't be introducing her to Princess Anne if she were just the flavor of the week. She is dressed "princess style" in a suit and is sitting next to him at the opening ceremony of the olympics. He has known her for years and spent a private holiday in her home town.....
I think we have just seen pictures of the next Princess of Monaco!

I really would just sit back and watch. So many have been named the future Princess of MOnaco (including Tasha, who was actually presented to his dad as well), that I don't put much into anything, until he actually announces he is getting married. And once the press starts digging, they will come up with the interview she gave and I doubt that he will appreciate that. With all the excitement and the details given, she would first have to learn to shut up to the press. He just had one woman talking to the press, he doesn't need another one to do the same. She has talked once, what if she will do it again when things aren't going quite her way? I hope he packed some condoms this time.

If any of you aren't really sure about your English you can use this translator it works well. http://translate.google.com/translate_tYou are correct about things being written that you knew were mistakes and any help with that is welcome since I won't be around shortly like I have been for personal reasons.

Albert is the greatest guy ever . What an amazing sense of humor this family has. The girl looks very sweet. 'Go, take her Al, or take my sister :p '

BTW, what do you guys think, will it be hard for a girl to pass Caro's and Steph's quality check. Albert once mentioned that the two girls like scratching ... if you know what I mean

It ain't over until the fat lady sings and you haven't heard me yet so get your ear plugs and get ready I might turn your hair gray and curl your toes when I let go. Albert will be running holding on to his knickers.

The above picture shows a man deeply in love!!!
A head of state publicly kissing her in a world forum!!! He is showing her off to the world and doesn't care how many photographers see his love! The ball in March is coming up! I wonder what his press office comments will be--because he's showing his true feelings for her with the world watching...They will spend Valentine's Day together, too! Expect an announcement spring or early summer!
She will be a beautiful princess!!!

They look as they have a good time. It's cool for Albert. They seem to fit.

I think I agree with paca...it is best to wait and see, but, teense...isn't it pretty to think that PA found happiness after all of the turmoil of '05. I'm not sure what to think right now...I wouldn't say he's deeply in love...obviously smitten...and having a good time...so that could mean a lot of things. Her career is over (swimming) but I dunno...I still think it's the ones we don't see that we have to worry about.

Do you think we should abandon plans, paca?

LadyM...I don't know whether to laugh or be frightened...

Paca, the interview is 5 years old...I think he would have heard about it now. He must be interested if he's with her all these years later especially with all of the photos of them together. Then again, last fall he said he wasn't with anyone and wasn't looking -- could this just be Dream Date Part II? (I know I'm obsessing, but it was a little stressful at work today and I really could have done without that third latte...I could do the ski jump right now...without skis! )

so could she be the one? she is at a good age for having children and is very pretty and they seem to get along nicely (of couse everyone does in public)
i was thinking, what makes being a princess so appealing or (to some) is albert so appealing?
whoever he marrys, she will be pick apart by everyone. so, would it really be worth it?
