Prince Albert's Older Children Part 2: 2023 -

[kalnel]

Not only Camille. Quite a few members of the family are illegitimate (or were born illegitmate), although several of the parents later married:
Alexandre
Jazmin
Camille
Louis Ducruet (born 3 years before his parents married)
Pauline Ducruet (born 14 months before her parents married)
Sacha Casiraghi (born 5 months before his parents wed)
Raphael Elmaleh (parents never wed)
Princess Charlotte (Rainier's mother)
Elizabeth-Anne de Massy (Rainier's niece, Princess Antoinette's daughter)
Christian de Massy (Rainier's nephew, Princess Antoinette's son)
Christina de Massy (Rainier's niece, Princess Antoinette's daughter)

With a list this long, the royal family should have plenty of experience managing children born outside marriages.

The previous poster makes relevent points about Albert's attitude when Alex was born. He demanded a DNA test and NC had to fight hard for him to recognise the child as his son. However Alex states in the interview that Albert readily accepted him when he was born which obviously isn't true and he would not need to dig deep to find that out. I think he's trying create an alternative narritive as the truth is probably too painful but there's no point in rewriting history.

Paris Match published photos of Albert with Alexandre as an infant. Albert was holding the child and looked relaxed and completely comfortable (PA successfully sued PM for invasion of privacy)

The point is that Albert never denied fathering Alexandre, which would have been foolish because Alexandre bore a striking resemblance to Prince Albert when he was a baby.

Albert's conflict with NC was about going public, which she did upon the death of Rainier III in order to force Albert to publicly acknowledge his eldest son. Albert had already formed a private relationship with Alexandre as the Paris Match photos proved.

The child he refused to acknowledge paternity of for years was Jazmin. Tamara Rotolo engaged in a long and very public battle with Albert which only ended when Rainier died in 2005.

Perhaps he did not deny it to the public, however, the reports linked earlier indicate that Prince Albert did initially break his promise to Nicole Coste to legally acknowledge their son, and thus she also resorted to the courts.

Jazmin is not a royal and and also not in the Monégasque line of succession .

I realize that she is not considered royal. She has never had a right to succession. I have been aware of this child for 29 years. I should have said royal adjacent. I knew someone would make a response to my post. Thank you for bringing more attention to my post. I can't wait to see how Prince Albert and family would respond to the arrival of a grandchild from Jazmin or Alexandre in the future. A wedding ceremony would be interesting as well.

The difference with Camille is that she was reared by her mother, Princess Stephanie , in Monaco. Very different to children who were living with their mothers outside of Monaco. And Stephanie’s position is obviously very different from Albert’s.

Although he is the eldest son, he is not the eldest. If any desire to be known as prince is there, it will only work if his sister wants the title too. In the ECHR, they would win. However, they know their current freedoms will cease and I think they enjoy current positions more. The little one is already looking miserable with the weight of responsibility weighing heavily.

Older children have the best of the world of the famous and rich. They have access to rich daddy's money and connections, social perks and no obligations, freedom to do as they please. If they're wise, they would appreciate that.

Alexandre had a modeling gig for Dior, shots done in Monaco.

And more recently he modeled for Alter Design which is owned by Pauline Ducruet. Pics also made in Monaco. I think it is quite surprising he modeled for her company, but pics look really nice.
