Thanks Lady, I guess we don't see her other children cause she still doesn't have custody, but I'm not sure about this...

They have to be over the age of 9 since she meet him in 1997.ladyodessa said:I would like to know the ages of her other two boys?
In one of the articles it said she lost custody of them afterwards due to her relationship with Albert her ex didn't like it. Something also about she couldn't afford to support them as well. A reason I said since he didn't marry her she wanted to get even with him and hurt him as he did her. She has been able to support them for sometime I wonder why they aren't on those holidays she goes on? Unless she gave up full custody and visitation rights in this country she would be paying her ex child support wonder how it works there.Bunkycat said:I can't find the article now, but at one point I read that her two other kids were both boys. They were small when her relationship with Albert began - the youngest being just one year old and the other was maybe two years older than that. So logically they are around 10 and 12 now. I don't know if she handed them over to their father before she met Albert or after. No one seems to know that for sure. In any case, those little people will share their fathers last name, not the french one that she adopted, so maybe they are able to have normal lives. Too bad that Alex couldn't.

I got tired did this the lazy way. CAPTION: Nicole Coste and Albert's lawyer Thierry Lacoste in Paris. Prince Albert, who became ruler of Monaco after his father, Prince Ranier, died in April, will publicly recognize on July 7, 2005 paternity of his son Alexandre with the Togolese flight attendant, Nicole Coste,33, according the French weekly L'Express published in Paris on July 3, 2005. Coste revealed she met Albert on a French flight from Paris to Nice in July 1997, and gave birth to Alexandre in August 2003. Albert's lawyer Thierry Lacoste has confirmed that DNA tests have been carried out - and prove the royal is the father. According to the weekly, Prince Albert had allready signed a document at a Parisian Notary Public where he states his committements to his son. A luxury villa at Villefranche-sur Mer, very close to Monaco, is under restoration where half of the property belongs to Alexandre and the other half to a Monaco company. Nicole Coste receives 10 000 euros per month from Prince Albert, she drives a BMW supplied by Prince's council and isprotected by a body-guard while strolling in Paris. Prince Albert will be inaugurated as the ruler of Monaco with a ceremony on July 12, 2005

If Albert had been in love with her he could have asked her to wait until his father passed away since his health was failing. Besides all we have is her word what happened that it was his father and she has been found not to be truthful in her stories. I''m sure its much easier for her to have thought it was Rainier and not Albert to break off with her. It would also save face and sound better than he dumped me. IMOOriginally Posted by AplePie
I was just thinking, do you guys think Albert would've gotten serious with NC if Rainier had approved of her?

The French law Monaco agrees to abide by has a mandatory inheritance right for all children. Beyond that is up to the parent.
Its my understanding the law is 33% for ALL children. Meaning that if he had 100 euros (work with me here), his children would be entitled to 33 and the other 67 could go to the local park if he wished. And of that 33, if he had 11 children, each would only get 3.
I don't think Stephanie got just 1% of Rainier's estate. Certain things needed to go to Albert as the next Prince (the palace and holdings and such) and others to Caroline as the next heir.
But Stephanie seemed to be her father's favorite. I am sure he provided well for her as well as left instructions with Albert so that she would always be taken care of. Clearly they worked because Stephanie and children are moving back into the palace for the time being.
None of us know anything for sure (beyond the law) and the media went wild with speculation over who got what. Rainier loved his children and took care of them in life and death. That is the best anyone could want or hope for.
And Eric (as I mentioned before that is still his legal name, I don't care if Nicole calls him Albert Jr in all her interviews, I will not call him anything but what he is legally known as) is caught up in all this precisely because Nicole wanted him to be. She clearly sees Eric as her meal ticket. The throne is out, but money and misery for the next 15 years are up for grabs.
If she wanted to protect her son and allow Albert to be a real father, we would not know about him and Albert could still slip off to see him.

If they end up getting married,I think Charlene will insist that Albert's only son be there. How can she not? I bet she has already met him and fallen in love.leahteresa said:No possible way, if PA gets married to anyone, Alexandre will not be anywhere in sight.
It will never happenteense said:Charlene said that she loves children.
So if she and PA get married,I am sure she will insist that PA's son be a page in the wedding---he will be too cute for words!
Alexander Eric is an adorable little fellow. I can see him walking down the aisle, holding a flower girl's hand.
Any bride(Especially the new step mom) would love to have him in the bridal party.
