Rumor of marriage change

Prince Albert II is known as the Prince of Gossip. As early as a few years ago, less than a year after he took the throne, he has recognized two illegitimate children. One is his son, Alexandra, with Nicole Koster, a black Air France flight attendant, and the other is his daughter, Jasmine Grace, with Tamarrotolo, an American real estate agent. The latest Revelations in the media suggest that Albert's affairs may not be all that. So, in a fit of rage, the princess-to-be bought a one-way ticket and prepared to fly home to South Africa via France.
On June 21, 2011, the police at the airport in Nice, France, immediately detained the soon-to-be Princess Charlene, who was about to board a flight to South Africa, after receiving an urgent notice from the royal family of Monaco. On the other hand, a billionaire friend of Prince Albert in France was also commissioned to act as a lobbyist to persuade Chalen to return home. Charren finally changed his mind after a heart-to-heart exhortation.
But while she agreed to go ahead with the wedding, she insisted she would "refuse to carry out any official functions in relation to the princess". It is reported that because of the remaining gas, Charon did not rush to return to Monaco, but instead went to Paris alone for sightseeing.
In the face of this increasingly intense "marriage change" rumors, Albert was forced to publicly refute rumors 48 hours before the wedding, angrily rebuking the French "Express" for "nothing." "These rumours, published just days before the wedding of Prince Albert II and Miss Charren Wittstock, clearly have only one aim - to seriously discredit the Fuhrer and Miss Wittstock and to cast a shadow over an otherwise joyful event," the palace said in an official statement. According to a Monaco royal source, Albert II is furious about the latest false rumors circulating and is preparing to take legal action against the French newspaper L 'Express [11] .

Illegitimate child

Albert II has admitted through his lawyer that he fathered a 14-year-old daughter out of wedlock with an American waitress. This is the second child he has admitted to fathering out of wedlock. The girl, Jasmine Grace, lives with her mother in Southern California. Albert has promised that his daughter can visit or settle in Monaco at any time, and French media have also published photos of Grace. In 1991, while on holiday in the south of France, Albert met Tamara Rotolo, the two fell in love at first sight, and spent two weeks together, the following year, Tamara gave birth to a baby girl, but Albert did not acknowledge the child. A month after Albert II officially took over as king of Monaco on November 19, 2005, a Togolese stewardess with a three-year-old son came to her door asking to be his father. Although reluctantly, Albert finally recognized the son and brought the couple to Monaco, where they settled in a villa and visited regularly. Under Monegasque law, a child born out of wedlock cannot inherit the throne unless the head of state is married to the child's mother. As a result, the chances of the two children inheriting the throne are very slim, and they cannot use the family name of Monaco's royal family, the Grimaldi, but they can inherit their father's $1 billion fortune [12] .
