I'm just gonna say it – he's a bit tan for European royalty, no? What happened there?

Mess.

How many bastard children doesn’t Albert have now?

Sexy guy.

He's a handsome kid; lucky he takes after his mother & not his doughy father. You could do worse for the new face of Monaco, but it's hard to imagine the sharp-elbowed Caroline will allow that

Well I guess we finally know where Michael Jacksons' stage wardrobe went.

Beautiful young man

Is he heir to the throne?

Beautiful mixed race guy, usually they get like Zendaya and Obama.

R8 No, children born out of wedlock can't suceed the throne. His little half brother is the heir.

by Anonymousreply 10May 1, 2024 1:53 PM

He seems like a nice young man born into incredible privelege. So much more class than we usually see from young American celebrities.

by Anonymousreply 11May 1, 2024 1:57 PM

He is very good looking. I'm not a fan of the hair, but that's the way the kids are wearing it these days. He says that his father is his hero, so I guess Albert was involved in the kid's life.

by Anonymousreply 12May 1, 2024 2:04 PM

Ooh, he’s fancy. He’d fit right in on the Interview with the Vampire show.

by Anonymousreply 13May 1, 2024 2:06 PM

Attractive guy, but that ridiculous wardrobe in the photo shoot isn't doing him any favors.

Albert has two out-of-wedlock children that we know of, has good relations with both of them and supports them. In past years he's been seen out more publicly with them as well - public events like the Rose Ball, personal photos, showing up on their social media. There was a lovely photo of him with all four of his children not too long ago, which was a first.

by Anonymousreply 14May 1, 2024 2:15 PM

Alexandre is the best looking of the 4.

The Grimaldi tribe is considered unrelated trailer park trash by European royals.

And Monaco is nothing more than a money laundering scheme. It's just a lesser Las Vegas but with better clothes and hookers.

Grace spent most of her time drinking in Paris for a reason.

Name one European royal family that is not one step removed from trailer trash.

R8 R10 Prince Rainier III (Prince Albert II's father) was born to Princess Charlotte who was the illegitimate daughter of Louis II. She was adopted by her grandfather, Prince Albert I, so there would be a legitimate aire. Princess Charlotte ceded the throne to her son when her bio-Dad/adoptive brother, Louis II died. Monaco got rid of the provision to adopt like that once Prince Rainier III realized he had a potential Black aire to the Monegasque throne opting for it to pass to Caroline and her eldest son. Albert ended up marrying and having twins.

R8, No. He's a princely bastard.

by Anonymousreply 23May 1, 2024 4:57 PM

R22, "legitimate aire" 🤪

by Anonymousreply 24May 1, 2024 5:02 PM

R24 Alexandre could have been "legitimized" by Prince Rainier adopting him just as his own illegitimate mother was adopted by her grandfather. Alexandre was about 3 years old when Rainier died and I'm sure he was well aware his grandson's existence.

Why has no one yet introduced me to this charming young man?

by Anonymousreply 26May 1, 2024 5:18 PM

R15, he looks like Brittny Griner being busted for cannabis oil at the airport. Looking at the two older kids, Albert wasn't very discerning when it came to his choice of conquests.

R22, "aire" 😂

No, R30, the two youngest are legitimate—how weird is that?

Those Grimaldi /Kelly genes are like a box of chocolate, you never know what you're going to get. Very handsome young man. Glad he's not cursed with royal titles. Hopefully he has a good life ahead

by Anonymousreply 34May 1, 2024 9:07 PM

That interview in Tattler grew annoying - he sounds like a massive poser and schemer and his virtue-signaling rings inauthentic. Plus, who is he fooling - gurl please, you’re gay.

He is cute but did they have to put him into this ridiculous white coat?

by Anonymousreply 40May 1, 2024 10:06 PM

Being a bastard, he isn't a royal. In fact if he wasn't a bastard, he'd still not be royal, as the Grimaldis aren't (it's in their titles - they are Serene Highnesses, not Royal Highnesses).

Shuffle some of that quote around and you'll get the word 'nepotism'.

For such an obvious gay, Prince Albert sure has a lot of bastard children with women.

by Anonymousreply 45May 1, 2024 11:03 PM

Exactly, R41. Albert has been known to correct interviewers who refer to the “Royal family of Monaco” with:

“Princely family, actually”.

by Anonymousreply 46May 1, 2024 11:12 PM

R46 They're casino-owning trash who built their cute little "state" on tax evasion and hookers who smoke pink cigarettes. They're the Trumps with better hairstylists.

Fuck 'em!

Why did a national magazine profile the grandson of Grace Kelly’s former servant? It’s a known fact that coloreds are illiterate and rely on their owners to communicate things to them- just like nature intended.

You weren't nearly clever enough to pull it off. I wonder who you were trying to imitate.
