Charlene, Princess of Monaco

I don't want to be a princess who sits on the sidelines; I want to be present and actively involved. It's a life with a purpose. ”

The people I mixed with in Monaco didn't relate to my South African mentality or humor... Although I have met some wonderful people since I've been living in Monaco, I regard them all as acquaintances. I only have two people I consider friends here. ”

Grace Kelly forged a link between Monaco and the movie world, and I would like to create a strong bond between Monaco and the fashion community. ”

I personally want to have children. I love children, and I simply can't wait to have a family of my own. ”

My foundation is based on helping children, and I hand-pick projects that are close to my heart and home. ”

As for the French language, it's probably one of the most beautiful in the world. I speak a little bit and I can follow conversations, but I think it will take time to improve myself. ”

I had been playing beach volleyball all day, painted my nails red, and threw on a green dress. I thought I looked great at the time, but looking back, I realize that my debut into Monaco society should have been better executed! ”

We need to instill the values that are important for future generations, and above all we have to show boys how to respect women. ”
