It's been alleged, but never confirmed, that Princess Stephanie was actually the one driving, and the story that Grace had a heart attack and crashed was a cover story. Grace and Stephanie had a contentious relationship l, caused probably by the usual teen rebelliousness.

Speaking from experience: When you have never seen a healthy relationship, you can't recognize the toxicity of your own. Dysfunction is normal for them.

If you notice from the Grimaldi family tree, there have been many generations in a row with few children: Albert, Louis and Charlotte were only children, Rainier had only one sister, and Grace had only 3 kids. This means the prince's family is very small in number: there is no local aristocracy or royal cousins like in the UK, it's just Albert and his immediate family for every social event. There also is the tradition of not marrying anybody local, so the Monaco princes don't marry anybody they might have grown up with and met in school or at work like many people do. Instead they've had torrid affairs or brief encounters with foreigners that don't always last.

There is nothing unusual about the family's marital history. Until fairly recently marriages were almost always a matter of business and at that level, also of state. People always hoped for a happy union but they were rare. In most aristocratic unions once the dynastic obligations were taken care of it was common for the husband to take mistresses. On occasion the wives were able to as well. In the old days people tended to be much more clear eyed in their approach to marriage. The whole "and they lived happily ever after" bit was understood to belong to fairly tales, not the real world.

@@0912sooli it usually doesn’t. The power dynamics in Indian arranged marriages are skewed from the start, in favour of the man, because India is a misogynistic and patriarchal society. So once married, the bride has to live with her husband’s family, and it’s extremely common for them and the husband to horribly abuse the bride. The bride/wife can’t even go to the police because the cops in India don’t care much about domestic violence and abuse and women’s rights. The woman can try to get a divorce, but divorce is so highly stigmatised in India, that if she’s a divorcee, she will forever become a social pariah. Women are usually also expected to stay home and not allowed to work after marriage, which means that she’s dependant on her husband financially, which makes it even harder to leave a bad marriage. So, tldr, most arranged marriages are far worse off than what most divorced couples in the west experience. It’s a horrible and cruel system.

Honestly, if I were at a ball, like Maria Caterina I'd rather sit with the old ladies as I'm not much on dancing (if I ever attend a dance these days I'd most likely sit out and constantly refuse offers to dance). As for the curse, this family has a lot of marital unhappiness to the point where you'd think a curse was at work (and there are those who think that Charlene, the current Princess of Monaco, is a victim of the curse), so I'm not surprised that people thought there was one on the family back then and now. But then again, maybe it's just a very long string of poor choices that lead to long-term consequences like this one.

Last week, I read that Princess Charlene was being an unofficial mediator in the Zulu Royal House feud.

Her eldest daughter has detailed publicly that Grace was not a loving or doting mother and that whenever their Nanny took a holiday the children cried so much Grace had to call the Nanny to ask her to come back. I thought this was well known??

Yeah a lot of people didn't actually like her and viewed her as a ruthless social climber. But she is romanticized mainly by modern day women. While this channel is good she usually is very sympathetic to most of the women she speaks about. Even if some of them were nuts, greedy, narcissistic or just plain evil in real life.

They all seem to be a hot mess! Cursed or not, your character will be what it is. If they are generally a crappy person, being a Royal of Monaco will not change that. Let’s hope that Princess Grace’s grandchildren can break the so called curse.

23:20 goodness thats devastating for Grace Kelly's daughter, seeing as they were arguing right before her mothers death

The whole point of modern royalty is not working for a living, so of course all they do is sleep around! (I say 'modern' b/c Medieval & Early-Modern nobility *also* didn't *need* to work for a living, but their self-assigned 'profession' was the leadership within the 'art of war.' Very few were actually good at that job, & it's a pretty violent profession to begin w/, but that was what they claimed to be good for, on-paper anyway)

What else? It's not like they wash dishes or work at a factory to pay rent....

The amount of caroline in thier family is astronomical

I think that the witch curse is a convenient excuse to conceal the toxic masculinity that runs in the family. Lots of men abusing their wives and considering them like their own property. Bad intentions always lead to misery. Start doing good and good things will happen.

Sometimes, one should not get married to begin with.

Some are unlucky, it's true, but a lot sound more like bad judgement than a curse to me.

I felt so horrible for Charlotte* while she married that scumbag! He’s always been complete rubbish and never deserved such a wonderful, beautiful woman. He had to marry though as Prince Rainier was getting on in years. He could have cleaned up his act though, as his sisters should have as well. Rotten choices make for wretched endings. * Charlene

Honestly it sounds like they are the ones cursing themselves…. Having children with other people is a sure fire way of seriously hurting your spouse…

When you keep repeating the same pattern of behavior like cheating and living just for your own pleasure that's not a receipe for a happy marriage.

Nice to see the history of Monaco's royals for once. I like learning about the Windsors, but it can be wash, rinse, repeat!

Prinz Ernst August notorious bad behavior was all over the press back in the day, there’s even a video game with him hitting paparazzi with umbrellas😂🤦🏻‍♀️

This one was really unique, and you're just getting better and better! Love the new approaches and topics.

Good relationships are built on good family relationships. It doesn’t surprise me at all that royal families, who chronically don’t provide good ,loving examples of how to build healthy relationships.

Charlene is too beautiful and young for Albert

Gesh... Not sure it's a curse and more like "Children emulating their parents." The whole lot need therapy.

I think a lot comes from Monaco's royal family being all playboys/golden girls, who were born with gold spoon in their mouths and lacked royal stature British for example had. At least they were less wild and kept their public appearances 🤔

Nice video! I didn't know much about the Grimaldi history, except that Lady Mary Campbell's mother was a princess of Baden, and that's how they're distantly related to the other European royals, and the bit about Rainier's mother being illegitimate and adopted by her father. Oh, and the more recent stuff, too.

As a Formula 1 fan, I can assure you Monaco is cursed. My King Charles Leclerc has never won a home prix, and instead only had accidents on track. Damn you Rainier the first!! 😩😩

Grace thought she was going to take a ship to Monoco, marry a Prince, then come back to Hollywood as the Princess she thought herself to be and carry on as usual. Then all of a sudden it was no more Cary Grant, no more Fred Astaire and no more cameras and of all things she was married to a Prince in a country called Monaco. Life pretty much rained on her parade, didn't it?

Your transitions are always so smooth, like whoa!

They keep making bad choices and are not faithful to their partners. It has nothing to do with being cursed. I feel sad for Grace Kelly. I think she deserved better. 🌹

When I was growing up, the royal family of Monaco was HUGELY popular in the US. People magazine was especially enamored with covering them. Caroline and Stephanie were constantly is the tabloids. They were so beautiful, and Caroline’s children got a lot of attention too for their beauty and wealth from a young age. With Grace Kelly in their genes, no wonder, and of course that explains the American fascination. I’m kinda surprised it’s fallen away as much as it has, while the British royal family remained popular stateside well before Meghan came into the picture. Admittedly, as I grew older, I encountered tabloids less and less, but with the ubiquity of the Internet growing alongside me, I’m still surprised it appears they’ve really dropped so much from the interests of mainstream gossip. It’s not like the fodder isn’t still there, it’s probably just in the wrong generation. I suppose the younger generation isn’t dramatic enough and the older generation’s antics are no longer marketable to the current 18-49 target demographic for everything that’s deemed to matter.

I dont think age is the deciding factor, I think it's the fact our link to Monaco passed with Grace. However, we'll always be ex's with England. I do wonder if we'd be as invested if it wasn't for Diana, her sons, and now Meghan.

There is no curse. "Most" of the unhappy events are brought on by their own actions and choices. Cheating and acting out does not "accidentally" happen.

...to se desilo i pre njenog prošlogodišnjeg odlaska u Južnu Afriku - živela je van Palate, u nekom starom, siromašnom stanu... sama je živela, bez dece...uzeli su joj decu...mnogo je patila... nije više mogla da izdrži...zato je i otišla u Južnu Afriku...o tome je dala intervju njena mladja snaja ( to je ona koja živi u Južnoj Africi) ali je ubrzo demantovala ono što je rekla ( verovatno pod pritiskom Alberta). Naravno Albertu je odgovarao njen odlazak - ljubavisao je sa majkom svog vanbračnog sina...podršku su mu pružile obe sestre...Deca su mnogo patila zbog odsustva majke...često nije mogao da ih smiri... zato je vratio ženu. Zapamtite - Charlene će biti u braku sve dok joj deca ne porastu i ne krenu na studije van Monaka...Ona je izuzetna majka... divna osoba ( čitala sam komentare nekih plivača iz raznih država)...Princ ne zaslužuje ovakvu ženu...ona je pametna, zna kojim će putem ići...

Rainier was devastated when Grace died. Both Caroline and Stephanie appear to have been in happy couples for a while at least...

Me too!!! It's unbelievable to imagine a woman like Maria Catalina at a time when most women(people in general) of her stature were indulging in marital affairs as if it was a cakewalk.

If we notice both Diana Spencer & Grace Kelly's life was somewhat similar. Both got married to royal prince, Charles cheated on Diana whereas Rainier III cheated on Grace , both had a bad marriage, both women happily raised their children, threw themselves in charity to forget everything & help others, both women were more beautiful & popular than their husbands who were actual Prince & at last both were in a car at their last moment at a very young age( Grace had a stroke in car & Diana had a car accident)
