I don't remember Charlotte ever being photographed in the sort of way that Alexandra seems to be; on the streets, with her siblings, while walking her dog, etc. Andrea, Charlotte, and Pierre were hidden away in St Remy, and I wish for Alexandra's sake that they would do the same for her, instead of flaunting her around Paris, the Med, Monaco, and all of her parents' official appearances. But I guess Princess Caroline and Prince Ernst have raised children before, and know better than I do. I just feel badly for the children that get caught in the middle. I mean, you would never see these number of pictures of Lady Louise Wessex (Prince Edward and Sophie, the Countess of Wessex's daughter), and the British tabloids and photographers are usually no good example. She is going to end up resenting all of this attention in the future, instead of making the funny faces taht she does now.

There were pictures of them everywhere, all the time. There was barely a week without pictures of them. They were definitely there, you probably just didn't see them. By comparison they leave Alexandra alone, but obviously she has more media coverage then most children her age.

Agree, they were taken on picture at EVERY moment of their lifes, going at school, going to violin courses, playing with dogs, etc etc..... I think the difference with Alexandra is that now Caroline lives a normal married woman life, but when the Casiraghis were children, she lost Stefano, and the Paparazzis were constanly behind HER to see what whe was going to do, who was the new boyfriend after Stefano, etc etc., and of course pursuing Caroline they were pursuing also her children. But now Caroline is much much less pursued, she has a stable life (thanks god) so Alexandra is quite.
But do not worry, when Alex will be 13-14 they will start pursuing HER...

I completely agree.

I guess I just never saw it. I guess I'm too young to have seen or understood it back then, but I still feel badly for her(and for the Casiraghgi's, Caroline, etc. I couldn't imagine having my life on display like that).

I was comparing them, at the same age. You know they may never pursue Alexandra. In six years Albert could be married and have children, and then they would be the Pap fodder. There could be Casiraghi grandchild or two. I actually think that Alexandra will never have to deal with media interest like her mother and sister. Stephanie's eldest daughter isn't annoyed by the paps, and she's what, about 14 now. Caroline and her children was a unique case 'the grieving widow and her children', that the children grew into such stunning teenagers was, depending how you look at it, very fortunate.
