General News & Information: Prince Albert & Princess Charlene 1: July 2011 - Feb.2012

[Breffney]

Speaking of surprising people, last April, when on a visit to Ireland, Albert and Charlene surprised the drinkers in a pub called "Durty Nelly's" when they turned up out of the blue. There they sat, in the midst of a load of rugby fans. !!

So quiet and unobtrusive were they that many people didn't realise that they were there at all. Of those that did, they smiled at them but didn't intrude on them.

I'm not sure if this is the correct thread in which to ask this question - has there been any word yet on the appointment of Charlene's Lady-in-Waiting. ?

No, I didn't get an invitation for the job interview (yet) so the job must still be available

Mrs Gallico is the lady in waiting of the palace, she was the lady in waiting of Princess Grace and she loves the prince and the princesses as her children. They like her a lot. Last national fest in november, she entered after the princely couple and the princesses, she had many difficulties to walk.
I think she is the lady in waiting of prince Albert and Charlene but Charlène has nobody when she travelled officially. Last year, it was Donatella De Knecht her witness for the wedding who was always with her during the mass of national fest and St Devote or when she went in South Africa but Donatella has four children to care. I think Charlene will have soon a lady in waiting.

She will presumably need someone much younger than Mrs Gallicio.

Not available for my country
Was it interesting?

[melina premiere]

there was a resume of the stories of Kate and Charlène, when they met William and Charlène(for Charlene there is the video when she won at the mare Nostrum race at Monaco in 2000 under the eyes of Albert and when she received her medal on the podium) there are the weddings of Kate and Charlene and the last news of Kate and Charlene.
Try to writte the http.perhaps it will work

[Breffney]

Thanks everyone. !

Donatella sounds like a contender but the fact that she has a young family could prove problematic especially if Charlene travels a lot.

Mrs Gallico sounds like a wonderful mother figure. Maybe there is someone within her own family who might prove suitable. ?

Prince Albert and Charlene seems to be here for their vacation.
This american newspaper as other newspapers are always writting that Charlene wanted to fly and so. It was false but they go on to writte they will never recognize that it was only a rumor and that all the usa newspapers were wrong. Now they say that they are quieter and have good holidays . Poor medias!


Prince Albert and Charlene Wittstock vacation on Antigua and Barbuda - NYPOST.com


there is this article in the south africa newspaper You

Princess Charlene, a royal hit | YOU

[FanofMonaco]

The NY Post is more of a tabloid than a legitimate newspaper. PA and PC were on the "Today Show" in November and treated very well by the host. They talked about the wedding rumors and that it was unfair.

[melina premiere]

You are right FanofMonaco, the usa medias treated very well Albert and Charlene in November and I was surprised to read again this story of fly again, I understand now why it came again. I tought that NY Post was a serious newspaper and not a tabloid

[melina premiere]

it is not new but a little photo of Albert and Charlene with the team of the yacht when they were cruising in the Fidji isles

Looking forward to the Sainte Devote celebrations in Monaco next week which will be another "first" for Charlene as Princess, not to mention her first birthday as a Royal on the 25th.

Charlene once had a white dog called Monac. I'm looking for a picture but I can't find one

[FanofMonaco]

I don't know if it's still the same but when PG was alive the Palace and P. Antoinette took in alot of the stray dogs and cats. PR even had a herd of camels at Marchais that he took from a circus that was going bankrupt.

The Royal Fanzine

[melina premiere]

There was a photo of the small dog in a sort of bag for dogs when prince Albert returned to Monaco after skj holidays last year, Charlene staying still some days with Donatella and her kids. All the photos were on profimedia, but now we can not find them.

What a lovely pic (and dog !)

[Breffney]

Thank you, Everybody. !!

I love Monac. That is my type of dog. Lots of hair. !!

I once read that after Prince Rainier died that Albert took Rainier's beautiful, big dog to look after. ?

It was the dog who walked behind Prince Rainier's coffin. I was in tears watching the poor animal, so good, behaving so well as he followed his master to the Cathedral.
