She is the “Princess Grace” of Monaco for her time - she has all the same beauty, grace, elegance and joy of life that Grace gave off in pictures, too. Love her expression inthe very last pic!
ITA. She is stunning.

I hope she's not actually driving in that first photo - sprawled back, no seatbelt?, one hand on the wheel rendered less effective by the arm propped on the door...
She is very beautiful.

Strangely, I don’t find her beautiful at all!

for me, she is beautiful but lacks charm, grace was both beautiful with full of charm

To the point! I always thought she was / is beautiful, but that there was something lacking.

But having your “partner” groping you in public? I’m mean ok in private but if someone wants to do an “examination” of that nature then there is a reason for bedrooms

I think Beatrice is beautiful. I understand she's smart, too.

hmmm not sure about the smart bit Paulina... I remember reading an article she wrote or tried to write about something or another and she came across as a real light weight, a poser anyone else remember that article and incident?  G

I welcome that article Geta. I think I heard she was a writer with an actual career. Not just a posing socialite as she is now.
I could definitely be wrong. No one in that family or adjacent seems particularly bright or driven. Rainer, yes.

Years ago, before she married Pierre, she was a journalist for different Italian papers. She did a big research report about the Mafia in Italy. I don't know exactly what she studied, but she had her own profession and was hesitant giving that up when she married into the Monaco family. I am sure she also has money in the background, but not as much as the Monaco family has. Married with two small sons she might not have so much time any more to follow her professional career as a journalist. She published a children's book last year about sailing across Europe to the US with not using a lot of fossils energy. Pierre did that thing with Greta Thunberg to demonstrate how it can be done. Well, it was just a business/publicity show. She is educated and not stupid IMO

Very well educated  (Caroline and all of her children are well educated, some with multipal degrees) ) She has always reminded me of Carolyn Bessett Kennedy. Cool beauty, almost brittle, not much softness in her "look" but totally different in relaxed, smiling photos I still think of that couple and wonder what they would be like all these years later. Would they still be married, have lots of kids and him a senator? Such a sad, stupid waste.

A master's in journalism is nothing to sneeze at and it's not some kind of candy degree. I think the observation below that she reminds of Carolyn Bessette Kennedy is spot on. Nice analogy.
