Prince Albert (Monaco)

[soul]

I think Wills got a guy on the side and that's why he is intent on keeping his private life private. I'm sure if was socially acceptable (for a royal) he would go totally buckwild, with Marco.

I think she would be a little upset with the way things have turned out.

I don't think things are that terrible, with the exception of Stephanie, who keeps making mistakes. Hmm... I wonder why I don't hear much of her.

Regarding Edward, he just needed some brown sugar. Nothing wrong with that.

I believe she got pregnant as the relationship began to decline. Interesting time to get pregnant if I may say so. Furthermore he supposedly promised to recognize this child after the mourning period, but the tacky tramp decided to do this now of all times. In a way it seems as if Nicole is marking him as her territory, pressuring Albert to marry her, despite the fact he wants someone more suitable (aka wellborn or royal). I doubt that this woman will let his more legitimate family live peacefully.

You're just like the others, nuharoo. You sound like the trolls on the royal forums. Hell, you probably are one of them. Don't you think if Albert wanted a more suitable (i.e WHITE, BLOND, WELL BORN, WEALTHY) bride, he would've done it while Rainier was alive? Albert has always said he will marry whomever he wants on his own terms, not his fathers terms, not your terms, nor any other royal watchers terms. I for one believe him. If he wants to marry an "unsuitable " (i.e. BLACK, middle class, waitress, whatever) woman, he will do that. Don't believe the palace hype about them putting out "feelers" for a "white" oops, I mean SUITABLE bride. Those were Rainiers palace insiders continuing to smear Albert's name. They also insinuated he was a homosexual in that same article (you know, the one about the "well born bride") but all of you fail to mention this.

I for one do not feel this woman is a tramp . I just think alot of white women got there feelings hurt because his 1st child is with an African woman and somehow that makes you feel less than. The name calling has to go. I don't see any of you people on any of these boards namecalling Tamara Rotolo and what she's done to Albert is far worse than anything Nicole has supposedly done.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, I don't think race is an issue. This could have been Cornelia Guest going to the press to put Albert on the spot during the mourning period and many of us would still think she was a biotch for acting this way. Who knows, the way Albert liked to spread his seed, there may be an older male heir that has not surfaced yet and would put this one even farther down the ladder.

The few times I have seen any royal sites I found they don't tolerate trolls, as they are just interlopers who want to destroy their forum. This discussion, I imagine, is the same everywhere. So instead of calling the posters trolls, I think they are just posters with a different opinion from you.

Knock off the personal attacks immediately.

By my possibly inaccurate count he supposedly has at least two kids, a 13 year old daughter by Tamara Rotolo and a 22 month old son by Nicole Coste. Well, if it's true, at least they won't be discussing who Albert has to marry to produce heirs anymore.

[Witchie]

Albert has acknowledged his son with Nicole Coste. The child will not be in line to the throne and won't be a Grimaldi, but will be able to inherit if Prince Albert dies. Here's the article.

Witchie, you beat me to it, but Hello! is my link.

As I posted way back when, I think Prince Albert meant to have the story leaked when it did; I think he gave the chick permission to do it only waiting until after his dad was dead. I don't think he'd go through the trouble of acknowledging the child and therefore his child's mother, if he thought she was all the names someone here posted earlier.

I always thought Albert was gay. I guess with this child I am really wrong!

This whole thing about legitimate versus illegitimate child seems wrong to me, especially in our current day and age. That child is his first born heir and should be entitled to carry on the line, wedding ring or not.

Starla, you're talking about a hardcore Catholic family. There's NO WAY they would let an illegitimate half-black kid become crown prince. Shit, I'm not sure if Monaco would let Princess Stephanie take the throne. Even if Albert has acted like a man-whore, his fruit has to be within the bounds of wedlock, no ifs/ands or butts.
