Her writing style reminds me of someone very special.

LOL it was probably chartarts mom who has been dragged home in the private plane and saw how unappealing her dreadful dirty working class home is after having spent months slurping of Albert and leaving the household to daddy who is most likely even less houseproud then lynette...

Plus Hibou .... Mrs. Kennedy spoke Spanish as well, and had a good knowledge of Italian. Plus, she was extreme well versed in all the arts, and she had universally acknowledged impeccable taste, style and manners. These two women, JBK and CW, can not, and should not be even mentioned in the same sentence. It is, and was, an utterly different situation, time and background. Besides which, Jacqueline Bouvier was deeply in love with Jack Kennedy when she married him. No one disputes that fact. No one. I don't know much about Mary Donaldson - except I believe she is fairly well educated and she learned to speak her new countries language quickly. She and her husband are more or less the same age. And her husband is kind of cute in a scrawny sort of a way. Again, different situation. Doesnt make her any less of a prostitute. Bought and paid for by Joe Kennedy and Ari Onasis. Period. HUH? Jacqueline Kennedy's father Black Jack was wealthier than the Kennedys when she married him. The Bouvier's were an old French Canadian family. For the uninititated if you have a French Canadian name, typically you are one of the oldest 40 families in North America- especially if your roots are Acadian. The Kennedy's were nouveau riche. Jackie MARRIED DOWN when she married Jack Kennedy. BIG TIME. On top of that she attended Vassar, and then unlike most women of her day who just started charities or got married, she started a CAREER as a PHOTOJOURNALIST for a newspaper- that's how she met Senator Kennedy- she was interviewing him for a piece she was writing on government. The money she got from her father-in-law was to delay the divorce she wanted to get so it wouldn't be embarassing to his son. Basically it was a divorce settlement up front. And you DARE to compare that at all to behing a high school graduate (dropout?) who's father is a photocopier salesman, who gets setup with an appartment in Monaco and allegedly takes 40,000 euros a month from a man she is apparently sleeping with as well as, it's been reported a black centurion card for what 3-4 years? And oh btw she claims she loves him, but sat on her derriere for all those years and couldn't even bother to learn French when she was in a French speaking country- in the era of Rosetta stone- are you posting from SA?

I am not as you call a Charlene supporter. I am, however, dissappointed that women would speak about another woman in such a way. She is not the only woman who - 1. has lived off a man. 2. has "conspired" to "get her man". 3. has thrown a hissy fit because she didnt get her own way. 4. has used tears to get attention. 5. has shown an interest in fashion and jewellry. 6. has made efforts to improve her appearance. 7. is not college educated. "prostitute" and "trashlene" are unfair, IMO. Albert's choice of wife affects only Monaco. After all, all that is required is to dress well, smile and wave and hand out prizes. Okay, you have watched WAY too many soap operas IMO, no college educated woman that I know does ANY of the things in your list, we DESPISE those behaviors (since by improving your appearance you apparently mean plastic surgery I'm including it) as immature high school loser behaviors and ANY woman who strolled into a group of intelligent college educated women who displayed ANY of those behaviors would be immediately, completely, and PERMANENTLY ostracised. As the wife of a head of state that is PRECISELY who she will spend the most time interacting with. Politely of course, if their paths were required to cross they would be completely polite. Women like that also tend to dress a certain way befitting high school behavior. In a nutshell you have why Charlene is not liked, and will NEVER be accepted, nor admired. The wife of a head of state, not matter how small needs to be able to do a heck of a lot more than smile and wave, especially since as it has been claimed that if something happens to her husband and they have children she rules in his stead.... Of a country whose language she can't even speak enough for basic conversation after being in a relationship with it's head of state for supposedly 10 years- at least 4.

And at the time Joe Kennedy offered Jackie the money TO STAY - she had already been married to Jack and they already had Caroline - PLUS - she had also lost one daughter before Caroline - Arabella - a lot of people don't remember that or even know it! Hardly the same thing! IMO - This poster clearly isn't educated and is rather limited in their world views.

Just a correction. Jack Bouvier was down on his luck most of his adult life - I think he lost most of his money in the stock market crash - I think - but that he lost his money is true. He became a terrible alcoholic. But having said that - he was from a very well educated aristocratic family. Jackie's step father Hugh Auchincloss was quite wealthy and also had a very impressive family background. He was from Newport, RI - and he doted on Jackie. Jackie had a lot of emotional scars from her father's drinking and behavior. And, yes, she was known to be very insecure about money because of the financial problems her mother had after her father lost his money and it looked like they would be destitute. And yes, she married Ari Onassis for financial security - after her husband was murdered in her lap! She was terrified the entire family, including her children, would be murdered! She though his wealth and power would provide protection for her and her children. Does that make her a prostitute? I think not - But Even if it does - her situation and these two women can hardly be put into the same box! Please!

IMO, Charlene is much worse than Mary the Bogan or Maxima or any other princess. She sat on her rear end, concocted stories about injuries and how she's an olympian (she never once competed in the olympics) and allowed Albert to pay for her surgeries and clothes, etc. She never bettered herself in that time. She could have attended school. She could have WORKED. She could have LEARNED THE DAMN LANGUAGE. All she did was lie on her back, post online and call reporters.
Footballers wives? Some have worked. The ones who stay after their husband cheats - you don't know what's going on in their marriage. The first time a man cheats on you, you want to believe it won't happen again. There are a lot of women who forgive their husbands for infidelity. The difference is that they are MARRIED to the man and most have children. You do try to work on marriage.
Are some in it for the money like Charlene? Yup. Those that are are exactly what she is. A paid companion to improve their image. They provide a few kids, get the money and the divorce. The problem is that Albert has been doing it all along. He hasn't stopped. She KNEW all along. There are photos of her looking at magazines of Albert's latest cheat when she was at the airport.
Charlene is no St. Therese. I really wish the sugars would quit this whole: "Grace was blah blah, Caroline did x, Stephanie is no better" crap. Caroline's kids aren't married. None of them are Charlene. Albert is the Sovereign of a country. With great power comes greater responsibility. Albert should step down. I'd bet Charlene would be gone in 30 seconds if he did. This wasn't about love.
Jackie loved Jack Kennedy. She was no saint but she's CERTAINLY no Charlene Wittstock. Jackie had class, education and grace. She WAS a fashion icon. She didn't need to have others beg to have her called that.

MyaDia, Thanks for the laugh from your post responding to Colleen. I so enjoyed how you laid out the contradictions of her comments. I am past tired of people who denigrate someone in order to build their idol up. I am still waiting for someone to tell me something positive about Charlene, but the only response I ever get is how horrible his family or other princesses are.

Girl, I'm used to these people - they all are the same saying the same stuff in their attempt to uplift this pathological lying con artist. But, it's catching up to her - and for Albert for being the biggest sucker in Monaco and showing his people how little he cares for them and his country with this shame of a marriage.

It looks like not the bride went to run-a-way but the groom...
