Albert of Monaco on the edge: Charlene says enough about his sister

Family tension grows in Monaco, meanwhile Charlene marks her stance and royal stability is put to the test

The royal family of Monaco has been in the spotlight in recent days; apparently, the conflicts can't calm down. On one hand, the concern has focused on the health of Prince Albert of Monaco. Although public appearances by members of the House of Grimaldi remain constant, the internal atmosphere is becoming increasingly complex.

A recent inauguration in the Principality has once again put the family in the eye of the storm, this time due to an accessory that provoked reactions of all kinds. While Caroline of Monaco accompanied her brother Albert at the event, a small gesture of hers triggered a wave of criticism. This not only affected her image but also that of the royal family.

The controversy caused by Caroline of Monaco

Caroline of Monaco, always so elegant, surprised the world with the choice of a blackamoor brooch, a piece that has been controversial for its historical and racial connotations. This type of jewelry originates from Venice and was once recognized as "the Moor of Venice." The brooch has different versions, but its roots are in colonial culture, being very popular among the aristocracy.

In recent times, the blackamoor is a piece of jewelry that generates debate due to its implications, every time someone wears it. The brooch that Caroline wore seems to be an accessory with history, inherited from her mother, Grace Kelly, who wore it on more than one occasion. However, the piece didn't go unnoticed, and the Monegasque royal family had to face the controversy in 2025, where society is more sensitive to these issues.

Charlene and the silence that speaks louder than words

Caroline's choice hasn't been well received by everyone. In particular, Charlene of Monaco has been clear about her disapproval, showing her discomfort for what she considers an inappropriate gesture. Her displeasure has been expressed with her total silence.

This incident has reignited the tense atmosphere within the Grimaldi family, Charlene makes evident her desire to keep the family's image. The situation is said to have grown into a serious topic of debate. It would be a new threat affecting the internal stability of the monarchy.
