I don't agree. Louis is very discreet. Pauline is launching her career and using the usual social media marketing strategies to bring attention to her product, Camille lives her life, does her studies and has set up a very laudable charity. They have public Instagram accounts - like many young people do.Stephanie's children love to be in the center of the scene and even if they don't attract attention as their cousins Casiraghi , they search for attention in any case..Then they complain.
Charlotte, Pierre and Alexandra as well as Tatiana and Beatrice all have Instagram accounts, all private. Alexandra has a public one for her dog. Don't know about Andrea.Agree for the girls. They publish constantly about their life, show their clothes, their bodies their tattoos. I remember when Camille was at school she was having a page in a site called "askfm" where you could ask questions to her. Nothing bad but these style goes against their mother's style who always wanted to be secret and "forgotten". Louis is more secret I think.
The Casiraghis are more secrets. I don't think they have social Media accounts at all, or if they do so, they are locked and private. Only Alexandra has Instagram but private.
No, anyone who has married there in the last 63 years has had a Catholic wedding.Will it be the first Catholic wedding in the Cathedral since Prince Rainier and Princess Grace ?
It's the perfect place for the wedding of a couple who live in Monaco, one half of which is Monegasque and is the nephew of the ruling prince and the grandson of the last ruling Prince.Monaco Cathedral is not the right place for a discreet wedding of a discreet couple.
Nobody said it would be discreet. Please provide evidence for what the Ducruet family would do to get "advertising". What exactly are they advertising? What extra information do you have about them?This wedding will be not very discreet . Ducruet family will do everything to get advertising.
She lives in a loft in Soho.
The appartment of her dad is in Cap d’Ail and his mother has an appartment in the same building. It isn’t specified where Stephanie was interviewed.
What a nice interview. Her family speak with such sweetness and emotion of her.
Seeing Daniel here and on the wedding pictures make me think what a beautiful couple he and Stephanie still would have been if they hadn’t split up.
I understand what Stephanie is saying is that she tried not to expose her children, as she felt she was exposed, when they were small. That if they wanted a more public profile they could decide that when they were older - as they have done to varying degrees.Sorry but I find this interview a bit sickly. Daniel Ducruet cries why Pauline miss him? Every father does. Stephanie Always proclaims she wants a normal life but her life is free ,not normal,she has many privileges and can ensure her children a billionaire llife all around the world. Pauline Is starting to work as designer and everybody think she is Armani. Perhaps it will be better more discretion and less self congratulations.
Daniel Ducruet loves to show off, without shame.

I absolutely agree to what you said.I understand what Stephanie is saying is that she tried not to expose her children, as she felt she was exposed, when they were small. That if they wanted a more public profile they could decide that when they were older - as they have done to varying degrees.
I think she also meant public schools away from the privileged goldfish bowl of Monaco for a while, mixing with people from less monied backgrounds, going to the supermarket etc.
You're right that she was able to make those choices from a position of privilege and wealth but I don't think she is being hypocritical - she did suffer from being hounded by the press as a child, and she has suffered from that accident in which she lost her mother. I think that left lifelong scars and I think it's a bit harsh to say she uses it as an excuse.
The thing with Stephanie is she has low cost tastes with a champagne budget (sorry, I know that sounds unbearably snobby but I can't sum it up better) in that she has never felt comfortable with the aristocratic and intellectual circles that Caroline moves in. She has always sought what she perceives as "normal". Albert seems able to navigate the two worlds more comfortably - which is good given his position.
As to why they are giving interviews my opinion (and that's all it is) is to help Pauline raise her profile for her business venture.
Personally, I think Daniel Ducruet is an opportunistic creep and always did think that but he seems to have been a good father to his children - credit to Stephanie for maintaining good relations with him, despite his awful behaviour, for the sake of the children.
On another note, I find it interesting how similar Pauline's voice is to Stephanie's - and I also saw a smidge of Caroline in her when she speaks.
I absolutely agree to what you said.
Stephanie had always claimed having a normal life, but she does not know what a really normal life is. Normal life is to wake up in the morning, go to work, count your money, and not be able to do all things you would like to, because you ran your off money or time. Stephanie is extremely rich, because the Grimaldi trio had money and from prince rainier but also from princess Grace, she always did what she wanted to do, luxurious homes, trips to Maldives or Mauricius, or the Swiss alpes.
I remember a period she wanted to live a nomad adventurous life and she used to live in a camping car. Only issue that the véhicule costed 300.000 euros!!!
In the interview she talked about public schools, but public school in Monaco is not such a poverty place!!
She never worked to live and now her kids are doing what? Louis works with his uncle the ruling prince, Camille does not really do anything and Pauline lives in 160 Square meters loft in Soho, she decides to be a designer and she has all the money she needs for.
I the mean time they travel from exotic resorts, to another exotic resort and they post Instagram pics.
It is the life that all rich people do, is not a shame, they are lucky. But just not pretend that this is a normal life.
