It seems that the princess is tagging herself as #royalfamily; which is a rather curious thing to do.

The father's day photo seems to be made at Mar-a-Lago, which belongs to the current president of the US. Another photo sees the princesses and their mother posing with Paris Hilton.
 
It seems that the family have been staying in the USA for quite some time, is it Easter holidays in Italy?

In Italy Easter holidays start today to next Tuesday for schools. Workers are off only from Saturday to Easter Monday. Perhaps the girls go to foreign schools; there are quite a few based in Rome.
 
The princesses are privately educated by tutors. This is what allows them the opportunity to travel so frequently with their parents on the trips the Duke and Duchess undertake. There was an interesting documentary on the family that appeared on French television several months ago.
 
So, what do they do for a living? Just living the jet-set life or do they have other purposes in life?
 
The duke has agricultural properties in France - these were left to him by his parents.

The duchess inherited a quite substantial fortune from her father.

They frequently attend royal gatherings as well as events in Sicily.
 
They mainly attend events related to the Monegasque family as they live in Monaco and seem to be friends with prince Albert. And apparently, they know crown prince Frederik rather well as the duke was asked to be Josephine's godfather. Any other close royal relationships?

So, they indeed seem to be living of inherited fortunes and don't need to bother about working for a living. Their instagram suggests as much.

Not sure if "wonderful" would be the word I'd use to describe an evening with Trump! "Nightmare", yes. :D

Ah OK, thank you both for answering. That would make much more sense, otherwise that would be a lot of school to miss out on as IIRC they were in the US since late February.

Not bad 'work' if you can get it, eh? ?

Maria-Carolina has gotten so tall! They are both very pretty girls, but the posing is a bit much, if unsurprising bearing in mind who their mother is.

I think the mother was an Italian actress before marriage.

Camilla's mother was an actress in the late 1950s and early 1960s, under the name Edy Vessel.
I don't think Camilla herself has ever worked as an actress; rather she has always been an heiress (to her father's fortune).
