Honestly I don't think that any of his family, Kelly or Grimaldi, care anymore. They all know that there is nothing they can do and Albert just will go through with it at all costs [/u]. Literally. You simply have to remember that this guy since he took over has accomplished nothing. He promised his people a country they could be proud of and he has made things worse then they ever were. He has no choice but go through with it, because no one thinks this man ever finishes anything he started. In 2 years they will get a divorce IMO or Albert will die of a heart attack. For Monaco both would be a good thing to happen. If by any bad luck by then they will have procreated, the child will be too young to rule so the crown council will decide on someone they consider apt. That person will also be responsible for the education of the child. the trash will be parked somewhere and they can decide whether they want to take the risk of another Albert or slowly and wisely lead MC into democracy,[/quote] There is no one that could embrace this marriage if that wasn't the plan. I honestly believe this, there just is no other possible explanation for anyone to embrace this women who is constantly embarrassing and a ticking time bomb. The whole wedding is already such a ridiculous joke. If Albert wants to save his hide, he would find away out of it, but Albert doesn't have any balls (or an ounce of foresight). I'm sure they could come up with some nice excuse, like Charlene couldn't handle the pressure....of course at this point I don't think she would play nice, but the humility before the wedding would be a whole lot better, than after when Albert looks even more stupid to have actually made this woman his wife and the Princess of Monaco--she is never going to play nice anyway and it is only a matter of time before Charlene or one of her family members becomes unhappy and writes a tell-all book, just like Diana did, never mind others--Charlene is not exactly the kind of person who attracts admirers....considering what they tried to do with Grace. That said. no one needs to bother, because no one could make Charlene, Albert, or the Palace look as bad as they do themselves. It's embarrassing and painful to watch how they have conducted themselves. I guess there is some entertainment value in it, but it really is painfully sad.

What the ---- is that?! Especially at the end - his vote of encouragement ... ?! And what was that face she made at the end ...? I'm speechless ... And you have to know this was pre-planned and rehearsed - and it's this bad. dear God. I've decided that Princess Caroline is letting him bury himself. There is no other explanation for this atrocity to have gone on this long and gone this far. I'm actually feeling a bit sorry for her - she clearly doesn't have the brains to know just how deep, dark and dangerous the water she's gotten herself into is. The people behind this joke are monsters! Absolute monsters! Well it just goes to show the nature of the relationship.....he thinks of her as a child, it is patronizing...like good girl and from her posts that is how she see's Albert, it is always "Albert didn't tell Charlene to do it" (for example on learning French). Her gesture is well....Charlene! They really believe they can transform this woman's character and maturity level now. You can tell she is sitting there staring at Albert with eyes glazed over because she doesn't understand a word of what is being said, until she gets her cue to deliver her rehearsed line, and then her "oh my god I can't believe I got through that" with her weird child like bug eye expression. I guess these interviews can be really entertaining as painful as they are to watch.

Here's an American blogger's take on the much anticipated TF1 interview - it seems that Charlene's lack of French is a big issue for some. Actually, I find it hard to believe that people are anticipating this interview. What's Narcy'e reputation in France? Does anyone know? Albert et Charlene SATURDAY, MAY 28, 2011 So, the big news here in Paris this weekend is the highly anticipated airing of an interview TF1 did with Prince Albert II of Monaco and his fiancée, Charlene Wittstock about their upcoming nuptials. A two minute clip of the interview has been available online for the past week. What strikes me most about this interview is the fact that, despite being Al's girlfriend for SIX years, Charlene apparently does not speak passable French (since her answers are all in English). She also has no reaction to what the interviewer is asking so apparently she doesn't understand French, either. The Parisians are very hard on those who don't speak their language and I'm guessing that the Super Rich Super Snotty Monegasques are even more so. I can't wait to see the rest of this interview. Bonne Chance, Charlene. You're gonna need it.

LOL I see it's left you speechless! I agree, what can one say at this point? The interview certainly speaks for itself. You have to wonder what Vicky McNeil LeVine is thinking at this point. Hibou, haven't you noticed Tylenol sales have skyrocketed lately! Vicky is taking them by the bucket load!

Yep, plastic fantastic Charlastic, according to the wedding website, right? The designated princess regent. Which is going to be such an improvement compared to Albert. (And a cause for hubby murder if ever I saw one).

That's the worst. Even if Albert dies, and he has a child, the minor regent is Sharklene. Crown council will decide if there's anyone apt for the job, or Sharklene will be Princess Regent?

No the crown council will decided. They are more likely to designate another grimaldi or a Monegasque. It is rare that an outside would be nominated. She would have to be very strong politically to be accepted and seeing that by the time they get divorced she will barely be able to speak the language, it will be more likely one of the kids cousins.They might also decide that the president of the conseil national or some other elected official might become the tutor of the child

Paca, I have bad news for you and the people of Monaco. The Palace says that Charlene will be regent. For some reason it's specifically called out on their wedding site (gag). I hope it's changed by the council. www.mariageprinciermonaco2011.mc/en/argumentaire/the_provisions_of_the_crown/4.htmlThis issue is dealt with extensively and in detail by the Statutes of the Sovereign Family. Regency is first and foremost necessary should the reigning Prince be prevented from or unable to carry out his duties. It is then carried out by the Crown Prince if he is of age, or failing this, by the wife of the incapacitated Prince who has custody of the minor Crown Prince, or again failing this, by the adult heir closest to the reigning Prince in order of succession. Regency also takes place in the event of the death of the Prince, if the Crown Prince is a minor.The regency shall, throughout this minority, be exercised by the wife of the deceased Prince who has custody of the child, or failing this, by the adult heir closest in order of succession. Should the regency not be able to be exercised by one of the members of the Sovereign Family or in the event the Regent is unable to accomplish this mission, it is fulfilled by a Council of Regency presided over by the President of the Council of the Crown and also including the Secretary of State, the President of the Council of State and the oldest member of the Council of the Crown, appointed upon presentation by the National Council. Only an individal of Monegasque nationality may exercise the regency. This system therefore guards against all eventualities.Moreover, it was activated without difficulty at the end of Prince Rainier’s Reign, when the Regency was exercised by the Prince, at that time the Crown Prince.

I don't know why i have the feeling that this relationship won't success. I mean, we obviously know that it won't, but i think that one of this things will happen: * They will divorce in 2/3 years and there will be no children. * They will divorce in2/3 years, there's a one-two year old child, Caroline becomes sovereign. * Albert dies in a few years (again, 2-3 years) there's no children, and Caroline inherits the throne. Caroline was born to reign, i'm very sure she'll be in the throne someday. I don't know, it's a feeling i have. Unless, Monaco becomes a republic, of course.

Thanks for the reminder mrplowfan. I thought that it was a very odd topic for a wedding site; planning ahead for the death of the groom.

It's so odd to think of Charlene as the regent princess. C'mon, the girl can't even speak english! I hope Monaco will be ok, despite all this shit.

I have no doubt that with Albert gone, she will be gone too. Though I think a divorce will be a more likely end. And that would end her claims to regency. I think that most likely in case of regency, they would push for the crown council option. None of the others is politically connected enough to be doing it.

I'm sure she gets lots of boxes of samples free but I'm sure she and her family need soooo much she's running to the store three times a day to buy more! ;D

I'm sure she is only attending to meet the other royals. What a contrast between Charlene and Vicky. At least the other royals will have some one from Albert's side of the family to talk too.

The trash is almost here and monegasque can't say anything.
