National Day Monaco: 2006 - 2022

[An Ard Ri]

The Mass this year must have been a poignant anniversary for the Princely Family with the recent 90th anniversary of the birth of the late Princess Grace.

How could Charlène smile if Jazmin Grace was there ??

I doubt Jazmin's presence has influenced her mood. I think in private life Jazmin is an accepted and loved member of the member of the family, no "danger" or "rival"


An article about the opera gala:

[Biri]

Exactly; Jazmin was born before Albert met Charlene, so she shouldn't hold any grudge towards this girl.

There was a sweet moment with Princess Charlene holding Prince Albert's arm during the tribute to Princess on the balcony. Whatever is going on (if anything), it doesn't seem to be concerning their marriage.

A year or so ago, a German tabloid had an article about how Charlene is rebelling against Albert by including Jazmin and Alexandre in their lives. I don't think that's true, but they seem to have a good relationship.

I also saw a photo of them on the balcony too, taken from behind. He had his arm tenderly around her waist.

I also doubt that the problem is their relationship.

I would guess so, the late Princess had Celtic ancestry(along with German).

My thoughts - Charlene was very serious for the ceremonies which are quite formal. She was more relaxed for the balcony bits - I saw a few small smiles and a bit of animation. I thought the outfit was just too much - although I liked the hat I thought the head to toe white look made her look like an extra from a Michael Jackson video. Better when the hat was off.

Caroline looked tired, even ill, in the morning but seemed to be enjoying herself surrounded by her family. She seemed better in the evening. I liked her coat but hemline showing below was just frumpy. Her grandchildren are cute.

Nice to see Marie becoming part of the celebrations- didn't love her outfit although I liked the colour and she has a lovely smile.

Stephanie kept it simple - a bit sober but she looked good and her hair is nice in this style.

Alexandra is a revelation - she has blossomed and seems a sunny character.

The twins are very cute - lovely to see Jacques continuing the tradition of wearing the carabinier uniform.

In the evening Caroline seemed more herself, Beatrice looked nice. I liked Charlene's tux but don't think it was the place, a gown was more suited to the occasion. Loved her hair and she wore some amazing jewellery both daytime and night time.

Nice to see the de Massy family represented as well. I think it's a bit odd that Charlene's brothers appear on the balcony but hey, it's a family affair.

Although Charlene, Caroline and Stephanie seemed a bit glum at first I didn't get that same weird, tense vibe in the atmosphere that there seemed to be last year.

Its a pity that Baroness Elisabeth-Anne de Massy was not present this year ,she rarely misses these major events.

During Prince Rainier 's reign protocol was more respected.

I don't know if this has been posted already but the Palais Princier has shared a lovely photo of little Jacques and Albert that was taken ahead of National Day:

I absolutely love it!!

Interesting, when you look at the pic of P Albert and his father, he already holds his left hand in that very manner we still see so often today.

Early training, I would say. Education and training for his role started early in the early 1960s, I think it's the typical hand position of the guards he learned and adopted for life.

Here are some more great galleries of the celebrations:

She did nothing at all for her Country (Monaco) since September pic-nic! She didn’t go to Japan while his husband and their children were for the Enthronement of the Emperor. It look a very strange behaviour.
