That black uniform suits the Prince. He immediately looks much lighter in weight.

What a pity, he is always alone performing his duties in the Principality.
He was alone when opened the New Policlinic at Princess Grace Hospital as well. It's weird that Princess Charlene didn't have 1 or more Hours per day to dedicate to her New Country. Or far worst she left Monaco for South Africa and never came back Since her daddy's Birthday, as rumors are growing.....

The Monaco Matin article mentions the incident where Grace, at the instigation of Jackie Kennedy, dressed up as a nurse to visit a seriously ill JFK in the hospital in the early 1950's. It says there is actually a photo of Grace sitting on JFK's bed...how I would love to see that!
