seto said:I know that everyone would like to see albert married but maybe he doesn't want to marry. I mean why should he get married? He doesn't have to have heirs ranier fixed that when he made caroline and the rest eligible to head monaco. He has certainly shown he can get companionship with no problem. Some how I think if he really wanted to marry he would have done it by now.

Tasha who is supposed to be one of his ex's was there with him, though she was there responsible for the tombola. I have my doubts though tha he is bringing her, since that would bring the journalists of the MC matin in quite a delicate position. So far they didn't mention her and probably did not intend to until an official statement has been issued. While Caro was dating Vincent lindon, he wasn't attending for a long time and when he finally did, he wasn't seated at her table, although everyone knew that the were together. Also people there (lots of them important officials from MC) would not know how to behave towards her. She would be there as his GF and not in any function that would take the edge away from it. So I think it would be another awkwardness in this whole matter, if he would take her along before letting people know what she is for him.sebastian said:As far as I know Albert never took a girl to either the Red Cross or the Rose Ball. There were girls there he knows and is friends with - but he never really took one girl there officially.

And as some one to help him with his duties and running monaco he has caroline and stephanie. It would probably be easier to stay single than to bring a wife in and complicate who does what .

I know what you mean.... I still don't know whether to laugh or to crypinklady1991 said:Are you kidding me??????????????? This just seems a little weird to me...first CW is kissing up to PM and now she & PA are suing them???????? AGAIN? You can't have it both ways... Are they suing Gala, Point de Vue, and all the Italian and Spanish magazines that published photos and called their trip a "honeymoon?" It's a little late now to try to protect CW's image and their privacy after Torino and all the PR pieces... I don't get it...

All American citizens living in MC have to pay tax to the US.enchantednights said:no, she didn't have to. in fact for a while everyone in the family had an american passport but something about taxes made them renounce them and just keep their monegasque passports.
Suonymona said:PA really wants the press to respect his privacy (pause for chuckles).
But by attaching Charlene to the suit, he is giving her more status, which is just making the tongue (and mouse) wagging worse.

I think he should fire his lawyer and get his head examined. You can't sue them for publishing paparazzi fotos (for whom they were obviously posing once they noticed them), then arrange an interview with PM for her in order to have some sort of publicity for her and then sue them.tamarindi said:[SIZE=+1] Albert of Monaco and Charlene Wittstock will sue Paris Match

Ghislaine said:Not again <very deep sigh here>. I really don't understand PA. Why?
The lawsuit against Paris Match over the whole NC/Alexandre thing was stupid. If he had to sue anyone, it was NC. She went to the media and you can't shoot the messenger. (Worst bit was that PM lost).
And now PM again. It's not as if they were the first mag to publish the pictures either. Has PA a private vendetta against PM or something? And why?
Sorry, but I don't see the logic here. I don't even see sense here.
A question for anyone who has had the chance to read the article:
I found it a strange article, not fitting to PM at all. More a tabloidy thingy with barely any text and only pictures. It gave me the feeling that they only did it to annoy PA. Is that just me?
