Charlene Wittstock attends to presentation of jewels created by Angelina-Jolie and Robert Procop at the Safia Al Rashid gallery in Monaco on May 18, 2011. Notice the fiddling with her fingers. This is something that I have noticed that Albert and Caroline do, and Grace before them, which I assumed meant they were nervous. I wonder if this is contrived by Miss Charlene? I don't remember her doing it before. Also, someone needs to tell her to keep her hands hidden as much as possible; don't draw attention to them this way. Once those hands (or feet) are seen, they are like a train wreck, you can't look away, they are so large.

I guess we have fully discussed Charlene's scholastic, professional achievements? Short and sweet.

You know what I'm wondering ...? I'm wondering if perhaps Eringer is correct and Albert REALLY is mentally ill. This is getting creepy - scary creepy! No one is this stupid. Maybe it's all coming from him - Albert and his pea brain finance - all this PR nonsense - and the PR people are just doing what they are told to do. These PR people CAN NOT be this stupid and unprofessional. ... can't be - can they - all of them? Maybe they are just trying to keep their jobs - it's tough out there. Later they can say they were only doing what they were ordered to do. Any thoughts on this as a possibility? I meant FIANCEE - boy was that Freudian or what? LOL ;D I think you had it right the first time.

They need to distance themselves from his parents. This "walking in their footsteps" only highlights how much they are NOT Rainier and Grace; they don't have the talent or star power. Also, why don't they stay in Monaco and try to improve things by actually working on the problems?

Will they melt these coins down and destroy them if the wedding is called off? This just seems like they are jumping the gun on putting the two of them on a coin, but may become a collector's item.

Charlene's body is so peculiar that she is going to need to have ALMOST everything custom made for her if she wants anything to look decent. Everything she wears that is "off the rack"- even if it's a high priced designer outfit - pulls across the shoulders ad bust. If it fits properly there, it will be way too big in the waist and hip and length area. But, let's talk about that TOP LIP! None of these people - including and especially CW & PA - seem to have any sense of asthetics or proportion. Unbelievable. I agree CM. Rather than running into shops and grabbing all of the most expensive items and running out, Charlene needs to get some designer that is willing to work with her to custom fit her clothes. Her shape is just not normal in any way. It would be better to have fewer outfits, but have them fit properly, than the way she is going about it. If your clothes don't fit, you will not be a Princess of Fashion. No way!

I've noted what you mention, MyaDia. It seems if you are anti-Mary then you don't want any other princess to be viewed negatively because it might knock her off the 'worst crown princess every pedestal' and you have too much invested in that premise. Mary or Kate or whoever needs to be only crown princess unsuitable for the position. Can't have any competition. To me, they can all be unsuitable or all fantastic for their positions or probably they will be all over the board since we are talking about individuals.

Emmeline, be careful if you watch this wedding. I'm thinking that it is going to be like having a root canal with no anesthetic. Be sure and take some anti-nausea medicine in preparation. Seeing that 'look at me' smirk will unsettle the strongest stomachs! If I watch, I'll be focused on Caroline and seeing if she is able to keep the blank look on her face throughout the whole event. Also, who will be at the balcony with non-dynamic duo, assuming Charlene will share it, and will Albert be able to give Charlene a real kiss to fully seal the deal? At the garden tour that they just finished, he seemed to have difficulty just looking at Charlene. Not that I advocate over-indulgence, but we may have to have a drinking game during the wedding where you have to take a swig every time Charlene grins at the camera. This will probably be the only way I can watch the whole thing.

This arm holding is just so fake! No one would have their arms linked like this for such a long time. Normal people in love would unclasp, touch shoulders/arms, hold hands, but not walk around with this arm link the whole time.
Note that Albert never holds her hand or touches her in anyway and we know that he loves touching women by all the photos of him touching any women that he is near. Charlene is sending a message or she is unable to stand unassisted.
;D

These two have one of the longest engagement periods in modern history, but they still cannot get it together. This juke should have already been produced and on the street to be sold. Dates are changed; venues change; dress designers change. Albert has shown in full view his management technique and it is not positive. He cannot even plan a wedding; why would anyone think he can run a country? Everyone note that 'dumb-as-a-rock' Charlene has expertly executed her plan. She is firmly ensconced at Roc Agel. She has gotten her family moved from South Africa (it wasn't as hard as it might have been, they didn't move much of their personal possessions, content to allow Albert to buy new). She has remade her physical appearance (except for those damn pesky coat hanger shoulders), bought every item of clothing that she could find that costs over $1,000. Attended two royal weddings in the past year. She wasn't kidding when she said that she sets a goal and thinks of nothing else till she gets it. Maybe Albert could learn something from Charlene about accomplishing goals.

Was Charlene unable to stand on her on? Normally, there is daylight between these two love birds unless they are in a hot tub. Albert is smiling, but none of the photos show him looking or interacting with the Coat Hanger. I'm not feeling the Love. On another topic: I was at the store this morning and saw 'Life & Style' magazine. The headline on the cover was "The Next Royal Wedding" over a photo of Harry and Chelsey. I didn't think that they were even confirmed as a couple, much less ready for marriage. No mention of Big Al and the Coat Hanger.

Also Grace put Monaco on the map because of who she was as a person before she became the Princess of Monaco. That is where the Palace, Albert, and Charlene have it very backwards. The woman made the title--the title didn't make the woman that was Grace Kelly, she made the title mean something, in the same way Charlene makes a joke of it. It is the woman behind the title that is going to make it mean anything or attract anyone. Grace would have probably been even more popular if she had stayed a Hollywood actress--she did quite a few films in a small amount of time. This is exactly the point that I have been trying to make. Grace was an accomplished person BEFORE she became princess. And this made people want to know what and who it was that made her give up a successful career. Thus, people became curious about Monaco. And though I think that Rainier loved Grace, he was also looking for someone with this potential for his wife and he found her. Albert is clueless of this fact and no matter how many lies that the palace spins, they will never convince most people that Charlene was a successful, accomplished person before she became princess. There is nothing there to be successful about. Sure she was a swimmer; but no offense, it was in South Africa, not in a country that has slew of competitive swimmers. There is a story that Caroline and Albert tell that when they were little all they knew was that their father was a very important man and Grace was just their mother. Then in the mid-sixties (?), they took a trip to Hollywood as a family and went to the various studios. Everyone there oohed and aahed over Grace, waited on her hand and foot, and just treated her like total royalty and though they were nice and polite to Rainier, he was just her husband. It was at this time that C and A realized that their mother had been successful and somebody before her marriage. I guess Albert has forgotten all this and just thinks that Grace was a total nobody before she became Princess of Monaco. It is really a shame that he has so little concept of who his mother was. That or he really hates her for some reason.

Rented attendants and paid wedding sponsors. What a high-class event! Is Albert not the godfather for anyone's children, but Caroline's and maybe Stephanie's? And those children are all grown now. I remember Victoria's wedding (the one that inspired this rented, sponsored, street fair circus) and she had all of her godchildren as her attendants. It was really neat and interesting how she had all these future kings and queens in her wedding. The rented attendants really underscore that these two have no friends in Monaco or elsewhere. Also, this is a huge slap at Nicole and Eric/Alexandre. Albert probably should have Alexandre as a page boy, but he doesn't want to go anywhere near that land mine. This is what happens when you publicly and privately disrespect your children.

Very good point, grandduchess! Yes, Diana was mentioned, but the British royal family did not drag her out all the time to sell their wedding. They just let William and Catherine do their thing and the public was what generated all the buzz. Albert is dumb, but he apparently knows that his mother put Monaco on the map. The fact that the palace is reverting back to Grace at every chance tells me that they know Charlene is not selling as promised. Now we will find out if Albert is a total loser. All signs say to cancel the wedding, but it takes a lot of guts to break an engagement, particularly when you have tried to ensure that every person on the planet is aware of it by taking Charlene to Japan and Ireland. That's a lot of egg on your face.
