She did say she was calling from the palace where she was visiting for the baptism. It's right near the beginning of the article.
I don't believe the interview is given from the palace, it is the newspaper who is saying it.
She did not say that she attended the christening but the Grand Prix .
If she gives too much interviews, I think she will never be welcomed warmly by all the family.
Albert said they are his privat like and not a public life.
See! I knew someone better qualified than I, would post the pics. Thank you!
You're welcome

Albert was quite bubbly the last weeks, talking about his marriage etc. So I don't see the problem why Jazmine shouldn't talk as well. Till now I thought Albert abandoned her, now not anymore ]
She also states that she was in town to attend the christening. It's in the second paragraph along with the mention about her calling from the palace.
I think the photos are quite nice and see nothing wrong with the interview. Other members of the family have given interviews and posed for photos, so I don't think they would have a problem with Jazmin doing it. Plus she was calling from the palace, so I imagine they were well aware of this interview.
It was nice hearing about the relationship she has with her family. It also puts to rest any speculation that she and Alexandre are not part of Albert's life.
Thank you, quite an interesting article, she is really likeable.....You're welcome

The whole article
Grace Kelly's Granddaughter Jazmin Grace Grimaldi Opens Up - Prince Albert II Daughter Jazmin Grace Grimaldi Interview
A few years ago Jazmin stayed with Caroline when Albert was in Greece I believe it was. She also visited with Stephanie. Don't forget Jazmin is single where Caroline's are not only with a partner, 2 have children, and she is closer in age to Stephanie's so it doesn't surprise me if she has more contact with Stephanie's.She says that she has contacts with Stéphanie and her children but she does not talk about Caroline and her children, I think there is no contacts between Caroline ans her children.
I think it's most likely due to the fact that they are the children of a reigning Prince, whilst the other illegitimate children are not as important in the terms of succession. But of course, I don't know for sure as I'm not that knowledgable about the Monegasque royals.
imo a big difference is that his sisters children, even when born out of wedlock, were always without a doubt their children from the day they were born.
P.Albert, afaik, didn't acknowledge his oldest two children until their mothers took action and DNA tests were performed; that is a very different attitude towards the chikdren (even if later on they did establish a good relationship with him)
So that could probably a factor as to why his situation is viewed differently..
Of course it's a double standard!
In my opinion it comes down to irresponsibility on Albert's part. He should never have fathered children with women he would not/could not marry. (I'm not certain, but I think subsequent marriage would have legitimised a child so it could succeed him.) Yes, it takes two to tango, but he's the one with the inheritable status so the onus was on him to make sure his little swimmers didn't produce any children until he found a woman he was willing and able to marry.
Yes, but what's done is done. His children should be more than welcomed into the family and should be seen as part of the family.
I totally agree with you, but it appears that Albert and/or other family members preferred to treat them as his dirty secrets and hide them away. It stinks. They are his children as much as his children with Charlene and should be included.
