I second that! Lovely clipping, iceflower!

Here's one pic of little Caroline (& doll ) arriving at some event during family's visit to Ireland -- Pic (It's just me or there's very strong resemblance with Stephanie in that particular photo?)

Little cutie

In the first Pic she's doing this thing with her mouth that Charlotte used to do when she was litte. Cute.

I found this at ebay. The seller claims that this is an original announcement of her birth with a picture of her that I have never seen before. Here is the link to ebay, and here the announcement with that pic:

I'm not sure if this is a real photo of the new born Princess Caroline, also because I have not seen it before and because of the quality of the picture. We have seen many others that looked very different from that, that could be a baby picture from the 1970s or even 1980s. The documents can be real, but I can't imagine that it's also a real picture of her.

Me too I'm not that sure about that ebay pic, but it could be real as well

Some nice clippings of little Caroline:

I don't think that it is Caroline on the ebay pic. Just because I don't trust in ebay-sellers. You can sell everything at ebay, no matter if it is fake or original. I even heard that somebody has tryed to sell the moon at ebay not sure if i should believe that.

Here is a pic of Caroline with Jackie and Caroline Kennedy:

Taken in the late 1960's, the photo shows, in a limousine just outside of 1040 Fifth Avenue, Jacqueline Kennedy, Princess Caroline of Monaco, Jackie's daughter Caroline, and in the next seat up, the back of John Jr.'s head, and the back of Princess Grace of Monaco. The group was on their way out to lunch.

Great finding, tbhrc, thanks for posting!
If Caroline had not worn her special and well-known hairband, it
would have been difficult to identify which Caroline was sitting where
It's great that they met - children from such special families in the spotlight..

Extraordinary ! I didn't even know they had actually met ! I know of at least 2 events where Grace and Jackie and husbands met, but I didn't know about the children. Thanks for posting !

[Grace]

I think when Jackie was married to Onassis, she and her children spent often part of their summers with the Grimaldis (who went to Skorpios several times I think...)

How interesting ! I wonder if there are other pictures...

[monaco70s]

Great finding! I had never seen a pic of both families together also, only of Grace with Jackie in Seville in 1966 and on the White House visit. I guess this picture is a proof that the "rivalry" amongst Grace and Jackie that was reported in the press back then and still is at times isn't true at all. I'm not sure if the Grimaldis went to Skorpios when Jackie was married to Aristotle, but the later did go to Monaco during the 70s.

I think by Caroline's hairband and both hairstyles of Jackie and Grace the pic is from 1966.

This is what I found in a book I purchased in a used books bookstore where I always seem to discover books on the Monaco family I never knew existed. Of course, I don't know if the book has any credibility, although it seems well-researched with no glaring inaccuracies I could spot.

"Princess Caroline was always wanting to meet Caroline Kennedy. At the age of eight, they had a playdate in New York's Central Park. The troll doll she received for her tenth birthday from the President's daughter would be her favorite present that year.(...) In later years Caroline would dine and go to discos in New York with Bobby Shriver, Jr., a Kennedy relative and pal."
