The fascinating life of a princess – The Century of Torreon

The next January 23, the Princess of Monaco, turn 60 years old, who from his birth has been one of the consenting of the press of the heart, his rebellious adolescence, his loves, tragedies and joys, have been in the lines and photographs.

Has called the attention of the media, long before he was born. Is simply the Princess more elegant and distinguished, all thanks to the genes he inherited, on the one hand the blue blood of the Grimaldi, the Principality of Monaco and its immense resemblance to his grandfather, Charlotte; and on the other hand, that air of glamour worthy of a Hollywood star as his mother, Grace Kelly. But, who is Carolina Luisa Margherita Grimaldi?

During his childhood, demonstrated athletic skills, especially in the field of swimming, skiing, and horseback riding, in addition to sparked his passion for music. He entered the School of Dance of Marik Bessobrasova and studied flute and piano. After he completed his education in the St. Mary’s Convent. In 1974, he joined the parisian University of the Sorbonne to study Philosophy, Psychology, and Biology. His stay there allowed the young Princess to be known in the world of high society.

the men of the Princess

When he was only 16 years old, the “Time” magazine dedicated a cover page to: “Carolina, the bride of Europe”, although it soon became the girlfriend of the scandal. Her first husband, Philippe Junot, was the type of man that any mother would accept as a son-in-law: philanderer, without a defined job, lover of sports cars, racing horses, and older than her 17 years. They met in 1976, in a Paris club, and as we knew that Carolina enjoyed to anger their parents, accepted his proposal of marriage. The new suitor was received with displeasure by the royal family. They were married on June 29, 1978, but he soon returned to his adventures in the nightclubs of fashion, accompanied by stunning models. Two years later, the couple divorced.

Then the Princess she starred in one of the romances most remembered for his biography, along with the argentine tennis player Guillermo Vilas, with whom he was photographed in a “topless” in Hawaii. But the death of Grace, mother of Carolina, in an accident in 1982, he made Vilas outside relegated to oblivion. She opted to be more discrete and he accompanied his father, Rainier III, in the role of First Lady.

But fate changed his life. On a cruise in Corsica, Caroline and Stefano Casiraghi saw for the first time and fell in love and went crazy for love, so much so that after that trip were lost together for a few weeks and it was already news. Carolina she left behind her relationship with Robertino Rossellini and Stefano, with Pinuccia Macheda.

Everything was very fast and passionate, so much so that you were to travel through New York, Paris and Milan. That was where the Stefano, as a good Italian attached to his family, he decided to take Carolina in an official manner to the “villa Cicogna”, the property of their parents. In that place, which was a kind of castle Italian, the Princess shared with her parents-in-law and brothers-in-law.

After this visit, came the turn of Stefano in Monaco and there he was with the Grimaldi family, who adored him, especially Rainier who saw in him the best man that her daughter could have, with a Carolina which did not stop smiling, and that little by little they began to change their dress for a more conservative. The marriage was on December 29, 1983 and the Princess wore one of the dresses most classic of the history of fashion, a design of satin beige Marc Bohan of the house of Dior, created especially to disguise her pregnancy.

it Is said that the dream of both was to bless his love on the altar, but this could not be fulfilled while Stefano was alive. However, the birth of their three children, Andrea, Charlotte and Pierre, and as loving was he with her were easing, that the Catholic Church never gave them and that only would be granted two years after the death of Stefano Casiraghi, in an accident motonáutico in the lake of Garda (Italy).

If the death of Grace became to Carolina in a lady, the death of Stefano, became a lady. For years, the monegasque they would use to see a figure that almost did not recognize: a Carolina, fleetingly here or there, always dressed in rigorous black making his life in St. Remy with their children, away from the protocol. In mid-1992 was attributed to an affair with Vincent Lindon, a French actor of not too many flights but of wealthy family.

Without Monaco and without love

In 1996, Carolina decided to redo her life without think about who could be hurt: fell in love with the Prince Ernest Augustus of Hanover, the husband of her best friend Chantal Hochuli. The divorce between Ernesto and the aristocrat switzerland gave in 1999, same year in which he married with Carolina, with whom she had to Alexandra. In 2005 he returned to the tragedy of the life of Carolina. His father, Prince Rainier III, died from complications in their health status, in both, her husband suffered an acute pancreatitis, although not killed, it is hinted that he was an alcoholic. The separation was imminent. In addition to being single, Carolina was relieved of her duties in Monaco after the wedding of his brother Prince Albert with Charlène, who assumed the commitments that the Princess played. A life full of nuances, of darling girlfriend rebel, a wife in love with a devoted mother, and today the grandmother of three grandchildren, Carolina remains one of the most elegant in Europe, after all: “There are Princesses and there are the Princesses of Monaco”.
