Andrea, Pierre, Charlotte and Friends

[kells]

I was under the impression Caroline spoke Italian. And I think the Casiraghis must have at least learned a little Italian being so close to their paternal grandmother.

Also, I recently heard Stefano speak in an interview and he didn't sound like a fluent English speaker. I don't know if he spoke French, somebody please correct me if I'm wrong, but from that interview I gathered that he and Caroline probably spoke Italian together.

I believe that all the Casiraghis are fluent in Italian. They still see their many Casiraghi relatives fairly often so I'm sure they use the language while they are there. I also seem to recall reading somewhere that Caroline wanted to make sure her children knew how to speak Italian, and make sure that they were close to their father's side of the family so that they would always have that connection to their father. I could be wrong, but I believe I read that somewhere.

i loved Beatrice Borromeo interview in above-magazine - beauty will save the world starting page 55, she seems really smart

[CasiraghiTrio]

She might have leftist leanings but also be just so blindly "in love" or infatuated with Pierre, and he has his own views and lifestyle, and they are having fun together and spending their parents' money, but are still entitled to their views. We can't fault a couple for being "in love." She can express her leftist views and still enjoy a luxurious life. There are many very Left thinkers who live luxuriously. Think of all the liberal-minded celebrities, and Princess Caroline herself.

[Renata4711]

I take my hat off to her, a very good interview, including a question about the money Roberto Saviano is making. The photos are also stunning.
Let's hope she is not targeted by anyone from the three mafias.

Many thanks to Rima for getting us the link to Above Magazine, something I will read regularly from now on.

One of the sentences that made me shiver: "All English computer waste is handled by the Camorra and sent on to Africa...."

They appear to be more acquaintences than social friends - certainly pleasant to each other whenever they run into each other; I think the press would love for them to be enemies, but I just don't see it.

LOL! Why should the mafias target her? A young Miss Know-it-all, who is exceptionally contradictory: she declares herself to be a communist, then she's happily shacking up with one of the world's richest young man, the son of a Hereditary Princess. She play the moralist about the Italian Prime Minister when she's born out of the wedlock (which prevents her from being a "Countess"), and her father divided himself between his wife and Beatrice's mother: see post. Her granmother cheated her husband with a painter for 20 years. Her husband filed for divorced when their affair became common knowledge...
Besides Beatrice lived with a man nearly 20 years her senior for some years. I can't recall if she still was of age back then. I hope so!
Talk about morality!

In Italy nobody cares about her, so she's gone blabbing to the foreign press.
If she's that smart and a communist that cares for Africa, why doesn't she accompany Caroline in her charity travels? Or goes to work with an organization in order to help the African children, instead of cruising the Mediterranean on Caroline's yacht? If I'm correct in a interview she stated that Monte Carlo sucks. Why is she still hanging around the Grimaldis?
She'a sly one. She loves being in the limelight. Do you know what she is dubbed by the Italian media, including her left wing friends? Beatroce = Beatrocious.

You read my mind Tosca ,I'm totally agree.

[moby]

Interesting outlook on Beatrice...I've noticed that those from Italy aren't as enthusiastic about her as those of us who aren't. Admittedly she's pretty, she and Pierre are a beautiful couple, both of them from well-known, aristocratic, well-connected families so it seems like a dream match. Maybe she'll find herself, eventually, and start practicing what she preaches. She's still young. That might sound like a convenient excuse but I go to a university wherein students can't seem to stop protesting about all sorts of issues like consumerism, consider themselves communists but then rush to the nearest Starbucks after a grueling day of street protests, so maybe that's why I'm tolerant. LOL.

I can't argue with any of your points EXCEPT the morality point, because the objections you cite involve other people who are not Beatrice. Beatrice cannot help that her parents weren't married when she was born. This fact, therefore, says nothing about her morality. Then you cite something about her grandmother, again, not about Beatrice. Your objections involve her parents and grandmother, but how can their actions speak about Beatrice?

I'm not arguing with you, however. Even if she is a person with some socialist or leftist theories, she probably shouldn't go around calling herself an outright communist. Perhaps she would be wiser to say that she has a few leftist points of view. Some of my own political beliefs are leftist, even socialist, but I am not a Socialist or communist by definition. This seems to be the case with Beatrice, but I don't know.

Oh dear. So there I was going into raptures about this young woman and now I read that she has declared herself a BOLSHIE??! Does she even fully comprehend what that means??

Because I have done some research on her illustrious and ancient family..and she would need to renounce pretty much her entire heritage to be true to her Communist beliefs...there are two CARDINALS and a beautiful island palace for heavens sake! And what about all those luxury holidays, fine clothes, the rich aristo boyfriend?

Oy. Many of us say foolish things when we are young.....

Thanks Tosca, for the enlightening info. You are quite correct, I only read about Signorina Borromeo in the French press(which seems besotted with her)because I cannot read Italian.

Note to Tatiana Santo Domingo...PLEASE choose a different shade of lipstick! She is actually a lovely girl but that garish slash of red across her mouth is just not flattering!
