To just jump into that Steph-discussion: I just think that she is not a princess like all the others ( Leatizia, Mary, Mette,Victoria, Maxima....and I dunno who else) But she never was and probably she never will. What's the problem with that? I mean she doesn't even claim to be that kind of ideal-princess. Most people like her just the way she is, all Monegasques do, 'cause she's their little princess ( almost 40...) She's just an original,: frank, loyal, sweet, nice, helping, careing etc. ...at least thats how I got to know her and how she always behaved with me.
There's a little thing that appears to me by now: These men-stoties!!! I always thought: Well she was just unlucky in this for all the time..but now after that short mariage-intermezzo with Adans and having already a new guy...hmmm I dunno really what to think of this...it's a bit confusing and maybe also kinda stupid of her to jump from one relationship into another at her age with three kids etc....Until now I always saw and understood why she did the things she did. Today I'm a little lost ( Maybe I gotta talk to her....maybe we all should before judging...) On the other hand I think it is not necessary to understand every step Steph does. She's just a human beeing.People make choices all day...some choices are right and some are wrong....maybe her choice of Adans was wrong, even though she could have been thinking about it more carefully before marrying him ( at least I would have done so..I guess) But, see...I'm not her...we're different...and hey...this is her life. And whenever I met her and that kids they seemed to be happy in their life. Maybe it would be good for steph to calm down a little and understand that she doesn't necessarily need a man on her side to be a valid person. But she has to decide and live that on her own. She's old and clever enough to do so I believe.
So that's how I see this: You can critizise Stephanie's choices and make better suggestions or state what you would like better or not etc. but I also think it's a bit rude to say that she looks horrible and stuff like that. But I won't keep you from doing so (and I can't) because if this is your opinion..go ahead.
People have different tastes thats for sure but hey noone can reject that Stephanie has beautiful eyes ( can you?) and a great figure.
And why do you think that the Red Cross dress looks cheep: It's from Jicky, a famous french designer and friend of Steph...and maybe you should look on it a second time : It fits her...and the haircut is very original too...well, that's Steph...she just special ...not such a boring everyday 'I'm l-like -all-the-others' - princess...that's what makes her STEPHANIE....
