Princess Caroline of Monaco is once again experiencing one of life’s sweetest joys as she becomes a grandmother. At 67, the eldest daughter of Prince Rainier and the unforgettable Grace Kelly is getting ready to welcome her eighth grandchild, reaffirming her role as the heart of a growing royal family. Quiet but always warm, Princess Caroline has managed to balance her royal duties with deep dedication to her family. Aware of time passing, she has built a strong bond with her three oldest children and now enjoys the rewards of that closeness, staying actively involved in the lives of her grandchildren, with whom she shares a loving and present relationship.

Charlotte Casiraghi is the mother of Raphaël and Balthazar. Pierre, the youngest, shares two sons with Beatrice Borromeo—Stefano, born in 2017, and Francesco, in 2018. Now the couple has something new to look forward to. They are expecting their third child, a girl, who will be Caroline’s third granddaughter after India and Charlotte.

This granddaughter adds to her family legacy and strengthens her role as the heart of one of Europe’s most beloved royal families. The joyful news came without an official announcement, as is typical for this family, who naturally value their privacy. But it was during the Dior fashion show on May 27 at the stunning Villa Albani Torlonia in Rome that Borromeo caught everyone’s attention. She looked stunning in an elegant, white asymmetrical gown with a classic touch, revealing for the first time a small baby bump that caught everyone’s attention.

At 67, the eldest daughter of Prince Rainier and Grace Kelly not only holds an important institutional role in the Principality but is also a central figure in her family’s life.

Caroline has always been a pillar for her children. She stood by Pierre and Beatrice during their spectacular 2015 wedding, first held at Palazzo Borromeo on Lake Maggiore and later in Monaco, and also during the early years of her daughter-in-law’s motherhood. Beatrice herself has spoken in interviews about what motherhood means to her.

Maybe because it’s so hard to express both the difficulty and the joy of this journey at the same time,” she shared in an interview with Vanity Fair Italia. “It’s wonderful and challenging, because you carry the responsibility for the happiness of human beings who depend on your daily choices.”
Speaking about her role as a mother, she also highlighted how lucky she feels to share this journey with Pierre. “I consider myself fortunate to go through all of this with my husband. He is a fantastic father.”
