Gabriella and Jacques - News & Photos

[Hester]

The pictures of the siblings is adorable, I'm glad they have a relationship.

I've seen several stories about her not treating his other children well.  One story is she moved his room away from the family rooms. I hope it's not true but it wouldn't surprise me.  More power to the siblings, I hope they manage a close, supportive relationships and if cha cha don't like it TOUGH.
 

This particular story was confirmed by Alexandre's mother, if we can trust what Nicole Coste said, it does seem like Charlene has an issue with having step-children.  

Children born to mistresses are not quite “stepchildren”…

They weren't born to mistresses as Albert wasn't married when they were conceived. They're her husband's kids, so I just hope that the rumors of her treating them badly are false.

By all means, happy to pay that, if you want to focus on the semantics rather than the substance…😺

Haha, I was just about to comment about semantics  

And let me just say this, generally and absolutely neutrally: when a person becomes ill - or meets with misfortune - people sometimes tend to sort of - I don't know - idolise? uplift? that person, being too much PC perhaps? and that's not always well justified. And then all personal responsibility conveniently disappears, and everybody owns something to the supposed victim, and other people truth and interests do not matter any more...

So, what's wrong with a casual photo of four siblings (ok, some are half) being released? I think it was actually meant as to show a family support?

It’s a good thing the children have a close relationship (if they actually do) but tbh I don’t think G&J look all that comfortable in the photo. I am certain Jasmin meant well but I hope there is an adult looking after the twins besides Albert, someone who can aide him looking out for their best interest first and foremost.

From the get-go of the release of this photo, it bothered me that only Jazmine looks happy in it.  Maybe it's as simple as people's tendency to post photos that are flattering of them, regardless of how the other folks in it look, but the picture doesn't radiate ease and comfort and happy, laidback, comfortable relationships.

I think Jazmin is very typically American in that respect just smile big if a camera is pointed at you. It doesn't look like a natural photo actually it is quite posed or quick. It would be more fun to see them all together at the park or swim club. What I have noticed since Charlene has been absent for so long is that the rest of the family has stepped in with the twins including Caroline and that's not something I would have put past her twenty years ago. She's the chic intelligent Grimaldi the snob. I wouldn't see her easily babysitting but she's a granny now and the family seems to know to close rank.

I just hope that Albert approved a social media photo.

Albert is close with Stephanie so I would not be surprised if she and her kids aren't actively involved on a day to day basis with Caroline also stepping in when needed.

I totally agree. The family -aunts and cousins-  always take good care of the twins.They sort of protect them and are very attentive to their needs and feelings.

The twins are incredible young - so one year gone (which is up now) makes up 1/5 of their life time. As you mostly start remembering things when you are two or three sadly they might not remember that much about their time with Charlene compared to the time they spend with other people and each other.

Very sweet photos ... missing Charlene though, a pity.

Charlene shared that once again Gabriella got ahold of scissors.

Looks like her brother did as well, unless perhaps she gave him a haircut.

Once is cute but twice? These children need more supervision.

She cut his hair too and I agree.
