Pierre and Beatrice Casiraghi are not Royals!

[Countessmeout]

They are as royal as many of the random other couples on this board. He may have no title, but piere is a member of the Monaco royal family, and in succession to the throne even of on his mothers side. Far more standing then these riyals who's titles are abolished and are nothing but last names. There are also grandchildren of princesses whose children are listed here. Bemoaning piere is only Royal on his mothers side seems splitting hairs.

[Biri]

He is grandson of a late Prince Rainier III and nephew of Prince Albert II, so a very close relative.
IMHO, for example Maud Angelica Behn is in a more degree "Princess" even without official title than Princess Maria Olympia of Greece; Maud Angelica's grandpa is a reigning King, whereas when Maria Olympia was born, Greece was already a republic (and she never lived in Greece).

[maria-olivia]

As Royal is not Royal.
I never saw Princess Zara Philips although her Mother is Princess Royal and her Grand Mother is Queen of Great Britain.
The Casiraghi new born Children are all Very Rich Commoners.

Thanks Countessmeout.

They are of course not technically royal but they are at the very least aristocrats, and for the purpose of this discussion board that's all that counts.
