I'm having a hard time watching it for some reason, but I saw that part and it was sweet. I think Albert looks proud and happy for her. Her voice is more mature than I expected and I thought she sounded more like Caroline, but I'm probably not a very good judge of that since it's been awhile since I've heard Caroline. Caroline always looks very elegant and poised and I think her daughter is taking after her. I bet Charlotte has many of her expressions and maybe that's also why she reminds me so much of Caroline.

"Both Charlottes and Athina's horses are beautiful and together with their persons they really stand out in the competitions and with the fact they enjoy the challenge of it all is what makes them a pleasant favorite as part of the shows."

Glistening Seas, I think so too, I had actually got them confused in some jumping photos. I thought it was Charlotte on a different horse before I realized it was Athina? I think Athina turned out very well too--she seems to be a happy and well adjusted young woman.

^I pretty much agree. Caroline's voice is lower pitched as well but not quite as low as Charlotte's, however something about the way she speaks is so reminiscent of her mother.


I can't believe how shy she looks though! Or maybe that's just my interpretation, but certain facial expressions she made just came off as so coy; its actually quite endearing considering that she can appear haughty at times in pictures. Just goes to show there's nothing like live action. My impression of her now is so different, I had been basing alot of what I thought about her off pics, since that's really all we had to go on.

The picture keeps freezing up on me at the moment so I can only hear most of it at. She sounds very self assured as someone else mentioned without seeing the footage, but that sounds sweet and probably why Albert gave her the little nudge. She sounds like she did very well.

Hello to all and thanks for all these magnificent pics.

I realised something. In horse riding events we have again the "old" Charlotte, smiling, happy, relaxed, natural. THIS is her field. The "upper society" life partying, etc, is less for her, and this is why she is always distant and cold.

Thanks for the video. Charlotte is a splitting image of her mother. Even her voice it is sounded like her mom also.

Fantastic video thanks!! Her voice is very sultry and she is quite poised for a young woman her age. Bravo. So good to see her with her Uncle Albert. This is a great image for Monaco!!!

I agree 100%. She has her mother's voice and this is a very good image to Monaco.

Greatvideo, great Charlotte. VERY MATURE, SELF-CONFIDENT, A NEW STAR FOR MONACO. She reminds me her father , Caroline made a wonderful job with her

[pdc]

so, did she win something?

[Renata4711]

So glad PA is giving her the chance to become an adult member and worthy representative of the Grimaldi clan.
Her voice is indeed very similar to her mother's, whereas Stephanie's voice is much higher, almost childlike.

What a great video! And Charlie!!! She Has such a nice deep voice, and all her faces lightens up when she speaks... Although, at the same time, it's strange to listen to her speaking french, i imagined her much more an english speaker rather than french...
AND IF I'M NOT MISTAKEN SHE SAID SOMETHING ABOUT COMING TO PORTUGAL?!?!? YES! YES! YES!!!

[rosana]

Thanks you Fortimo!!

I´m not a French speaker so if someone else would like to translate it would be much better. This is more or less what she said.

"I took up horseriding when i was very young. I´ve done this for long. It´s a pleasure to participate in the Monaco Championship.
It´s been difficult because i could´t train during the week, it´s been dificult to take up competition again".

-Do you aspire to become a profesional?
"For the time being i wish to get good results in amateur competitions, and then we´ll see. Why not?"

"It´s a pleaure to support this sport, i hope next years, thanks to the Global Champions Tour, which is a Championship organized around the world, i hope my participation may contribute to make this sport more popular".

She´ll be in Portugal in 10 days and in Brazil at the end of the month.

She also does swimming and jogging.

FINALLY - excellent video!! Thanks for giving us a chance to hear her really speak for a few minutes (not just a one or two word comment like at the fashion show). She does sound a lot like her mother - her French, of course, is much like a native. She was very poised and mature. She still had her wrist support (you could see her trying to hide it under the table), so she can obviously still compete, despite her injury. Love it!

[Tosca]

And she looks shy in front of the camera, just like her father Stefano did.

[hele_sakura]

her voice is really deep...charlotte looks like she really enjoy the enviroment , not like alex, in the photos he looks really serious, cold and distance, maybe the horse isn't his thing.
he has the same pose charlotte has when she is in a sociality event, alex looks like he enjoy that, not is different she is her thing ans he isnt.

in the interview she looks a a little bit shy, and the anchorman talks TO FAST

[memoo]

It is amazing how much she channels her mother! Beautiful, well spoken and very confident! I hope she continues to do more within Monaco's official duties!
