^Yes, Fernanda seems to have an special bond with her grandson. I read that story too I think it's nice.
I once read a story about Andrea and how he was impressed by a photograph of Stefano he saw at his grandmother's house. He asked Mrs Casiraghi for it and she, obviously, gave it to him. Then it's said that Andrea took days studing, the photo, admiring his father style... I think Mrs Casiraghi sees Stefano in Andrea. That would explain why she seems ( or is ) so attached to him.
He's very good about giving his arm to his grandmother. He did it in 1998 at Giancarlo's funeral. It's nice to see that he remembers to be gallant to the dear lady.It might also be for the simple reason that Andrea behaviors with affection to her!
In any case watching the pictures that Caroline is very very sad, she should remind Stefano's loss, especially now, she seems to be alone again.
I noticed also that both the boys look very sad, Pierre is holding Afra, in another picture.
She might have had a hard time believing it. Someone said in a previous post that Laura died from a "sudden illness". Disbelief can look like distance in a person.Furthermore Charlotte looks very distant, a little bit not very "related" to all this. She is present but in the meatime absent.
Sorry it is my impression.
i couldn't agree more..i miss sooo much brigitte's worldroots and sergio amaya's site.Yeah! I hope and pray Townsend keeps her site and doesn't disappear like so many Casiraghi webmasters! even if she stops updating at some date, at least let's hope she keeps it, for old times sake. It's so comforting sometimes to go back and reminisce on the old days with the Grimaldis and Casiraghis.
Marco Casiraghi presents new Trophy at Monaco ceremony
Memorial Trophy for Stefano Casiraghi killed while racing in the 1990 world championship
A presentation of a new award took place at a special ceremony held by the Union Internationale Motonautique (UIM) in Monaco over the weekend.
A trophy, in memory of 30 year old Stefano Casiraghi who lost his life while defending his world title off the coast of Monaco in October 1990, was presented by his brother Marco on behalf of the Italian champion's family..
Fernanda Casiraghi, daughter of Daniele Casiraghi and the late Laura Sabatini Casiraghi She is a marketing manager at this company: IMACO - la luce che purifica l'aria Daniele is the president of this company.
^That is great. Charlotte has good fellows/models in her own family, on both sides, in acting to promote a better consciousness of Green issues.
Didn't know it was Pulici Bifi.
Thanks, rereh. I thought Marzia was younger sister to Fernanda but I didn't know for sure. Thank you for filling the blanks of Rosalba's children. I never knew. :_) But honestly, I think Fernanda (Daniele & Laura's girl) was born before 1977. I remember seeing her birthdate on facebook and it was really her, and I could almost swear it was 1973.
I was mistaken, I think Rosalba hasn't any children because I read a interview with Fernanda Casiraghi and she said she had eight grandchildren.
I'm not sure about the age of Fernada (Daniele & Laura's girl), I told that year because of a picture that which I saw of Fernanda and Marzia with her mother, the pic was taken in 1980 and Fernanda was 3 or 4 years old.
The interview (June 16th, 2010) that I mentioned before is very interesting, Mrs. Casiraghi talks about her grandchildren, most of Charlotte, because the article is about Charlotte, so I guess the interview is more correct in the thread of Charlotte.
The interview is in Italian, so If anyone want traslate to English. Here are the article (page 1) and the interview (page 2). Also there are pics.

By the way, Mrs. Casiraghi clarify that they didn't gave her a island to Charlotte.
I hope that you have understood me, in spite of my poor English
