Yesterday night Italian TV channel RaiTre broadcasted a documentary called "Duello reale" ("Royal duel"), about the history of the two brances of the Royal House descending from King Umberto I and his brother Prince Amedeo, the first Duke of Aosta.
It contains several interviews to Princess Maria Gabriella, the Duke and the Duchess of Aosta, King Simeon II of the Bulgarians (whose mother was an Italian Princess) and Emanuele Filiberto.
Rai Tre La Grande Storia - 10 settembre 2010
Here is possible to watch the documentary.

On May 2006 , I studied italian 2 weeks in Florence. Just before living I saw on place royale Princess Marie-Gabrielle speaking about her new book.
So I went to Florence's biggest library and asked in italian the book of principessa Marie gabrielle di savoie . Their answer ; Savoie , just at the end of the row. It was ONE general book about the RF.
I said to myself : M.G. 's book seemed not to be a best-seller..

It may be a questionable project, but it's nice to see the whole family
supporting Clotilde!

Clotilde seems to be a bit tired, her features are tighten and she looks older than usual.

It's nice to see the whole family partecipating in the same event, it's rather rare IMO.

«A Dirk Hamer sparai così» Un video inguaia Vittorio Emanuele - Corriere della Sera
Turning back to old story...
Website Corriere.it presented a video which is showing prince Vittorio Emanuele during his stay in prison in 2006. Inside his cell there was a hidden camera which registered a moment when he was speaking about the accident from 1978 when Dirk Hamer was accidentally shot by him and died in consequences of injuries.

Yes, it's quite an old story; the content of his "confession" was known since 2006, the real news is the video.
Here's the link to the full video:
He basically tells how he "was in the wrong", but managed to change six members of the jury; then thanks to his "battery of lawyers", twenty witnesses and the intervention of several public personalities he has been able to "fool" the French judges and therefore to be acquitted from the charges, despite the state prosecutor asked for him to be sentenced five years and six months' inprisonment. Instead, he has been sentenced six months' inprisonment because of the possession of the rifle, but thanks to an amnesty he never served his time.
