Marie Agnethe Cavallier

[lynda]

I did a little research, born Paris 2/6/76.  Father is Alain Cavallier born in Cahors, France (where Prince Henrik has his wine Chateau de Caix), divorced her mother (when she was age 13) Francois Grassiot who either owns on runs a very fancy B&B in Southern France, Chateau de la Verned (which I couldn't find--I may have the spelling wrong), who married Christian Grassiot who claims to be a partner in REInvest in Geneva, Switzerland (couldn't find his name on anything to do with this company and who Marie works for (also suppose to be a partner in this firm).  Marie takes her Bichin Frise doggie Apple to work (we use to also take three of our dogs to work, at least thats normal).  Marie attended the ultra-fancy expensive Beau Soleil Boarding School, also attended University of Boston and worked in NYC. 
She is multi-lingual speaking French, English, Spanish, Italian, Swiss, and (maybe some) German.
Her stepdad & mum own their home Villars sur Ollon in Switzerland

Do you mean Boston University (commonly known as BU) or University of Massachusetts Boston (known UMass Boston)?

Okay all you Board Members:  Does she have sisters or brothers, half sisters or brothers??  Who are they, and where do they live???  I looked but couldn't find any mention of them.....if we find them are they close to her......
Any skeletons that could jeopardize her engagement???

Liesl, it only said University of Boston, never said if she got a degree (I may have missed that part)
Do you mean Boston University (commonly known as BU) or University of Massachusetts Boston (known UMass Boston)?

There is no such school as University of Boston.  I've read that she attended university in Boston but that leaves a range of 50 schools ranging from the uber-prestigious to the obscure.

Lupina found Mme Grassiot's B&B.  It's gorgeous:

I didn't know that there was a Swiss language?

The Château de La Vernède is located in Saint-Pierre-la-Vernède near Avignon in  Southern France (I found this, in French unfortunately  :http://www.avignon-et-provence.com/chambres-hotes-provence/chateau-vernede/vacances-provence.htm
)

Right, there isn´t one, but there is "Schwyzerdütsch" (Swiss-german), that is considered as dialect(s). But in comparison to German or Austrian dialects, it´s not unusual, that all social classes are speaking it. Swiss are also more often writing in swiss-german (and not standard german)
If she can really speak swiss-german, it also shouldn´t be too hard to switch to standard german...and to learn Danish.

marie may not have a degree, but she sure gives a good competition to mary if she and joachim get married. more stress to follow for mary.

[Lena]

She has at least on brother according to EB. He should be named Gregory and is elder. I´d guess they are having the same parents. But I couldn´t find much on a "Gregory Cavallier"

Christian and Francoise are both having a registered telephone number in Geneva

What is surprising is that Mary's birthday is on the 5th Feb and Marie's on 6th Feb. Talk about similarities....
