Thanks to Iceflower for opening this thread :-)

1) A short video from the Prince's Palace website, showing Caroline and Albert handing out the literary and artistic prizes of the Fondation Prince Pierre.

I believe it's quite rare for two senior members of the family to attend a prizegiving. It is Caroline's responsibility, but Albert must have regarded the occasion as noteworthy. Jean-Paul Proust, the Minister of State was also there.

How interesting, when Caroline smiles, all her face lightens up, she looses that rigidity her features sometimes show, she looses her royal distance, and gains a warmth and a humanity so attentive and reassuring. It´s as if she'd step down of her pedestal and became so close to us all. A nice, simple, caring person... Just that: a person.

That's right! She looks stunning! She even looks more beautiful in videos than she does in pictures (and she does look really good in pics)
