Who is Tatiana Santo Domingo? I LOVE LOVE LOVE this girl! She rocks baby. For starters, please watch these videos of Tatiana speak about her business. I am so IMPRESS because her business venture is a friend of mine and my exact idea. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this girl! Tatiana blows Charlene out of the water in every manner. I actually now have an even deeper appreciation for her dress style. I just want herto do her hair - please Tati, let a professional take a whack at it. I am so glad that she cares about the working conditions and the pay of these women (watch second video). YOU ROCK GIRL! Beware, the VILE, VULGAR, VICIOUS VARMINTS that Albert married into will be after you on the Internet. They operate by tearing down every other Grimaldi with the mistaken belief that trashing others will uplift Charlene.

Beware, the VILE, VULGAR, VICIOUS VARMINTS that Albert married into will be after you on the Internet. They operate by tearing down every other Grimaldi with the mistaken belief that trashing others will uplift Charlene. One particular sycophant says she is not the one for him and she doesn´t believes there is an engagement because: the last three years they don´t seem happy with each other and there are no photos which show them happy.

I like Tatiana too and her dressing style. She was lovely at the Missoni wedding! And I like the fact that in spite of being a millionaire she DOES something in life. I wish them the best.

Beware, the VILE, VULGAR, VICIOUS VARMINTS that Albert married into will be after you on the Internet. They operate by tearing down every other Grimaldi with the mistaken belief that trashing others will uplift Charlene. One particular sycophant says she is not the one for him and she doesn´t believes there is an engagement because: the last three years they don´t seem happy with each other and there are no photos which show them happy. So, Andrea has been with a woman for 8 years and the last three years with her he has been so miserable and unhappy with her that he has decided to marry her? Why? ?? Refia, please do not take this personally since my comment is not directed at you, but it is so beneath my intellect to even try to reason or even respond to dimwits who have the type of mentality and intellect most of the posters do who frequent these royal message boards. Seriously. I am embarrassed to let anyone know that I write on these boards because they will think that I have lost my mind! The average IQ of the silly women who judge every single thing about an individual based on photos capturing a millisecond in time - mostly taken out of context is REALLY REALLY LOW. You do realize that these people do not represent the average person in the real world. In the real world, people's intellect, worth and state of their relationships are not judged by the likability of the women's wardrobe, looks, hairstyle and jewelry. Besides, these are probably the same dimwits who think Charlene is some world style icon and Albert and Charlene are madly in love. Many of these people probably do not Tatiana because she does not fit their definition of beauty and for them - you are only good if you look good. Tatiana does not look good to them therefore she is not good. She is not a raving beauty, but she seems to have the qualities that Andrea believes are more important to him in a life-long mate - and most likely he probably finds Tatiana very beautiful. These sugah royal watchers' world consist of peering and drooling over photos of princesses who they have deemed good based solely on their good looks and good clothes (their definition of good looks). They barely read anything beyond a caption for a photo. Would you choose a mate solely on looks? Of course not, but these loonies believe that is how a mate is chosen. Getting to know, understanding and thus liking someone seemingly as intelligent, consciousness and non-materialistic as Tatiana is beyond the scope of their limited intellect. As I have told others who try to reason with a sugah loonie toon or a hater - you cannot reason with ignorance and hatred. Don't even try. It will only cause you headaches. Been there done that. Let them continue drooling over the shallow people that they find worthy of their attention.

She doesn't look bad...!? In any event, if my Charlotte thought it was a good idea to introduce Tatiana to her brother, I'm cool with it all. They've had a stable relationship. They obviously have mutual friends to support them through life (unlike Albert & CC) and they have a certain air of unconventionality and of belonging together. Their marriage will be one of originality and dare I say, joy. I declare!

I just watched the video of Tatiana and her business partner. I'm totally impressed with her. She is genuine and intelligent and articulate ... three things that Trampolina isn't and could never be! In that 3 minute interview she told me more about being "green" and doing things sustainable than Fat Al has in all his inarticulate and wandering speeches. I just wish she would smile more

Here is some more information about Tatiana that has come directly from her - her website and a March 2012 Vanity Fair (Latin edition) interview (I'll post also).

These are two very intelligent women who have a great idea for sustainable clothing and a concept to sell it. Good for them. I don't know how Tatiana can be in the same room as Charlene. JMO

MyAdia I am 100% with you - she is an accomplished young woman with an education, who works and is literally light years from the likes of Cashlene. And no plastic surgery to land the prince - heloooo people on the sugah boards! She is also a good ambassador for Monaco - good choice Andrea! She SO ROCKS! Her work is like the Jordan River Foundation www.jordanriver.jo/Brava

Well, she is not a classical beauty, but obviously Andrea finds her attractive and that is what counts. She is not plastic and seems confident enough to not become one of those sterotype bimbos in the future. In her world that is extremely superficial and where most women wear standard designers, she dares to wear her own style. There is no need to like what she wears or wear the same things. But she dares to be different and do her own thing, where everyone wants to wear the same thing and look the same way. I haven't made up my mind about her yet as I have not seen enough of her. Looking at her site, they seem to be reasonably priced, though there is not a lot of choice. Maybe that will change in the future...

As I said before, I LOVE LOVE LOVE this girl, but there are two things that bother me after reading her interview and looking at her website. First, Tatiana, you are extremely wealthy and can and do live a VERY carefree life where you can easily move around the world and attend many of the best social events, thus, in many people's eyes that makes you a socialite. Accept it and get over it. Stop trying to convince people that you are not by giving nonsensical examples. The label directed by others do not have to define you, YOU define who you are through your actions, attitude and beliefs. I think your business venture Muzungu sisters is a good start.
Muzungu Sisters, well its direction, leads me to the second problem that I have with Tatiana. I love the idea and the products, but after viewing the site and noticing that most of the listed products are "out of stock" it makes me wonder how serious is Tatiana about the venture. If you don't restock after just opening it seems that the venture is just something to keep wealthy girls busy ... for a few minutes ... and then it is time to move onto the next "do gooder project." Is it a socially responsive business idea or a hobby for some bored rich girls (which she hates being called a rich girl).
But, there are still so many things I like about her. Although I must say that she should realize that her reasoning for not smiling on most of her photos (she says that she doesn't like being photographed and she finds it stupid that others want her photos) is REALLY not doing her favors, actually it sounds quite stupid. Tatiana, you don't like being photographed, then don't pose for the photo - leave. But, once you stand and pose for the photo, show your inner beauty that does exist - SMILE! You look so much better when you do. Really.
I still like this girl!

MyAdia I am 100% with you - she is an accomplished young woman with an education, who works and is literally light years from the likes of Cashlene. And no plastic surgery to land the prince - heloooo people on the sugah boards! She is also a good ambassador for Monaco - good choice Andrea! She SO ROCKS! I think she will be a good ambassador for Monaco also - much better than the con artist that Albert spent $75 million on trying to define as his country's image. There's a French royal site that worships the bimbo that Albert brought to Monaco - they believe that she is PERFECT and flawless and is the best thing that Albert ever did for Monaco. They also believe that she is a natural beauty and viciously attack anyone who dare say or even hint that she has done anything to change her flawless features! Yes they ar serious and yes they are CRAZYYYYYYYYYY! These same people who worship Charlene and Albert went berserk in attacking Tatiana and Andrea after the engagement announcement. The underlying and in some cases direct message in their attacks are purely racist. Vulgar was the common word to describe Tatiana and several people used the word "dark" to describe her. They also discussed extensively her Columbian background and how there has to be shadiness attached to her family's wealth. They attacked her facial features and basically stated that she doesn't fit the "dream" - as well as Charlene does - of what they hoped for Monaco. Many asked about her educational level, her employment history and what can she possibly add to Monaco. Then they hoped that Charlene hurries and have a baby because they cannot bare the thought of such a child between Andrea and Tatiana one day ruling Monaco. The sentiments above are the sentiments that convinced Albert to marry a woman who is DUMB, uneducated, uncultured, crass, vulgar, stubborn and rude - but who looks the part of what is dreamed and expected for a Princess of Monaco. None of these people asked about Charlene's educational level, employment history and family background. Why? Simply because in their and Albert's eyes Charlene needed no other qualities to represent Monaco other than to look the part of what the media (the trashy shallow glossy media) convinced him a Princess of Monaco should look like. Albert is stuck with pure trash and his country is steadily heading into the trash pile because he, unlike any other head of state, actually believes that a people were going to be attracted to his country simply because he chose a wife that had white skin, blond hair, blue eyes, is tall and is thin (being an athlete was important to Albert also). Also important, Albert knew secretly he needed a wife that was going to continue to accept his extra marital dalliances. Albert is destroying everything that Rainier has left him, but hey he has given his country a white skin, blond hair, blue eyes, tall and thin princess - that should turn things around real soon

You know, she didn't just fall off the back of a truck, she's been around many years now. I think she'll draw far many more new talented types to Monaco when they see Monaco endorses not just the superficial. It can be for the beautiful people... that don't use plastic surgery as entry card to that world. Her mother if I'm not mistaken was a fashion model, and to me she's a lot more classical in beauty than what you see in glossy magazines. I sense a new era, a gentler one with more creativity. I think she was probably predestined for this. She belongs.

I don't know about you but I had a career for 5 years that kept me from entering straight into university, and if I feel like going back tomorrow, I'd be with people my children's age. Not everyone is so linear in life.
