Charlotte Casiraghi and Family Current Events Part 41: January 2017 - December 2017 - Page 27

To be honest, I think Charlotte will end up like her mother Princess Caroline, as she is her twin in all ways, including love.

jmho.

As for men, yes, Alex was my least favorite as well. However, he was Charlotte's favorite, judging by the length of time together. She's really only been with a handful of men that I recall ~ young 1st love, then Alex, Gad, Italian nobleman, and Dmitri. Same as her mother ~ older French playboy whom she married, actress"s son?, Italian business man & father of her children, some French actor?, Hanover Prince. Hmmm, Charlotte's only 31, her mother didn't marry the last one until she was 41, still 10 more years to go...

Yes, I'm cynical, but also I do believe she'll end up like her mother, in all ways.

In the meantime, I do enjoy following my favorite royal/princely family, through all their ups & down, triumphants & tragedies. I wish them all much luck, as it's not easy, even for us commoners. :)

At the age of 31 Caroline was already a mother of three and happily married; I am sure she and Stefano would still be together if Stefano were alive.
I don't wish Charlotte to experience such a tragedy as her mother had to endure.

An Italian publication a few weeks ago(Diva e Donna? OGGI) predicted that Dimitri Rassam will become Charlotte's Stefano.

If it's true, I sure hope Charlotte is destined for more than only 7 years of happiness.

What a sad, troubling thought.

Yes, it really is. Stefano was Caroline's greatest love but I truly hope that that aspect of her mother's life is something Charlotte (and Dimitri) will avoid.

Oh that Gucci dress is terrible. I only like the make-up and hairstyle. And I wish she had a good back posture.

Moonmaiden23 · #**526** 11-09-2017, 01:42 PM

Dimitri and Charlotte are on the cover of Paris Match. According to the article, they dressed up for Halloween...Dimitri was a Wolf and Charlotte a Fox.

Pictures?! PICTURES SOMEBODY PLEEZE!!

Charlotte Casiraghi et Dimitri Rassam, un vrai conte de fées

Foxy Charlotte??!

(Or maybe she means a different kind of pun: perhaps she's the wily fox, the Cunning, Il Malizia!)

Oh no, I doubt they have a tragedy like that in their future. Stefano was awesome, but what happened to him was really because of the way he lived: very dangerously, taking risks. I think it was just who he was. He wasn't happy playing it safe. But Dimitri seems different...... If any couple in that family seems like Caro and Steph, it feels more like Pierre and Beatrice, not the very quiet, almost boring to a fault

Charlotte & Dimitri....

Moonmaiden23 · #**529** 11-09-2017, 04:12 PM

Good point. Dimitri seems very cerebral and artistic. I can't see him into high risk behavior at all. He told Madame Figaro magazine that in contrast with his tragic father Jean-Pierre, he(Dimitri) was simply "not into excess at all" and never even tasted coffee until he was 26 years old.

Also... even though he is quite a handsome guy, he does not have the type of physique that one associates with a sporty, physically active lifestyle.

Anyway I don't believe the comparison was meant to imply that Dimitri would die young like poor Stefano due to an active risk taking lifestyle...only that he would come to be known as Charlotte's true love, like Stefano was for her mother.

Biri · #**530** 11-09-2017, 04:20 PM

Why was his father tragic?

Moonmaiden23 · #**531** 11-09-2017, 04:28 PM

Jean-Pierre Rassam was a brilliant and renowned cinematographer who lived a life of extreme excess and erratic behavior(to put it mildly) and died of an overdose of barbiturates at the age of only 43. Dimitri had just turned three at the time.

Rassam Sr was living at Paris's exclusive Hotel Athenee and became notorious for wild, bizarre behavior...his rooms overlooked an indoor courtyard with a dining area and one day he just started throwing women's undergarments down onto the heads of the diners. (Carole Bouquet had taken Dimitri with her to live elsewhere)

There is speculation by Jean-Pierre's biographer Mathias Rubin(Rassam the Magnificent) that he suffered from undiagnosed bi-polar illness and from what I have read of him I tend to agree. There is also the theory that he did not intend to commit suicide, and that the drug overdose that killed him was accidental.

BTW...Jean Pierre's beautiful sister Anne-Marie jumped out of an apartment window in Paris and killed herself in the 90's, as did her son Julien(Dimitri's cousin) a few years later.

Le renard et le loup (the fox and the wolf) is a well known fable of La Fontaine.

The idea of him as her true love is the way I personally took the analogy as well. I merely mentioned the dangerous lifestyle it seemed that there was another interpretation (not sure, but i think there was something implied in a prior post, and unfortunately I'm not in a position to go reread it at the moment.)
The more I learn about Dimitry from you the more I really like him for Charlotte. His tragic family experiences seem to have made him a very cautious person, like her, and a very thinking person, also like her, so...... I don't know. It's nice to see her with a soulmate, someone to have deep thoughts and talks with. :big grin:
I had a weird insight today about Caroline and Vincent Lindon of all people. The obvious comparison as relates to Charlotte is Gad, but I propose as an alternative, Lamberto. Lamberto became very fond of Raphael, Raphael even very fond of him and being confused about who his father was?

I think it must have been so hard for the Casiraghi kids, not only to lose their bio-dad, but then to lose Vincent Lindon after so many years of him basically being their daddy substitute.

Moonmaiden23 · #**534** 11-13-2017, 03:28 PM

Hi tatianacressida-

Of all Charlotte's partners Lamberto Sanfelice is the one I know least about. I am not sure if it's because he and Charlotte were together for such a brief time or it's because the relationship took place mostly in Italy and away from the eyes of the media.

I only remember seeing one photo of him with Raphael. It was the summer of 2016. Lamberto, Charlotte and Raphael were in Monaco, apparently at the Beach Club. Charlotte and her little boy were in the pool and Lamberto was completely absorbed in his paper.

In other words there was zero interaction. Not to say that this photo was an accurate depiction of the Raphael/Lamberto bond, but I have nothing to go by to judge how close they became. Quite honestly for Raphael's sake I hope that he did not become as close to Lamberto as he has apparently become with Dimitri Rassam, or as Charlotte was with Vincent Lindon.

The entire Lamberto Sanfelice saga is just a mystery to me.

Brad Pitt rumoured to be dating Charlotte Casiraghi by bullsh-t source New Idea

The only thing I have to say is: LMAO

Moonmaiden23 · #**536** 11-13-2017, 04:36 PM

As soon as I saw that Brad attended the same LACMA event where Charlotte was I wondered how long before some imp gossip reporter tried to stir something up.

Never mind about the 21 year age difference, and the fact that Charlotte's boyfriend was right there with her at LACMA that night.

By the way what was Dimitri doing while Brad and Charlotte were allegedly holding hands all evening..BUSSING TABLES somewhere??

Jared Leto was there as well(dressed like Count Dracula btw). Last spring the tabloids were full of reports of his "complicity" with Charlotte.

I am speechless. That's random and out there!

Moonmaiden23 · #**538** 11-13-2017, 06:53 PM

I am a little disappointed in Lainey. I was led to believe that her sources, not to mention her common sense, were usually impeccable.

So how can she say that the source of this story is even "doubtful" instead of straight out 100% garbage when Charlotte and Dimitri were all over the Internet together at this event, not to mention on the cover of a major international periodical with a cover story devoted to their (rumored) imminent engagement?

My guess is that she was too lazy to look further. Either that or her Royal "expertise" does not extend beyond Harry and Meghan these days.

melina premiere · #**539** 11-13-2017, 07:27 PM

No Lainey had never sure source, it is a tabloid of the web.

Don't trust this sort of Tabloid and the proove is this story of love about Charlotte and Brad Pitt, I think she does not know very well Charlotte, she called her princess, Charlotte is not princess and these two tabloids don't follow the activities of Charlene, they would have done this, these tabloids would have see that Charlotte is with Dimitri since the last summer.

I think that these english tabloids followed Harry and Meghan and nothing else

Of course, all is untrue

burbankstorylady · #**540** 11-14-2017, 10:51 AM

And the very idea, Brad Pitt and Charlotte, is so crazy, even if they presented "photographic" evidence I would not believe it!

(Because of course that would be photoshopped! ) :big grin: It's weird to say it, but honestly, Charlotte is so far out of his league, it's hilarious! Maybe 90s Brad Pitt, that Brad Pitt was 'cool', but he is so far past that!
