Rainier himself broke off a six-year liaison with a French actress named Gisele Pascal to marry Grace-a wedding boycotted by European royalty, who disapproved of the bricklayer's daughter from Philadelphia. And Caroline's grandmother Princess Charlotte-known long ago as the "Madcap Princess of Monaco"-made headlines when she ran off with an Italian physician...
...long after Caroline was born, Grace expressed the hope that her second child would be a son, so that her daughter would be spared the public life demanded of an heiress to a throne and "grow up to be anything she likes-even an actress." That wish came true when Albert was born a few months later, but Caroline grew up to be rather too independent-at least for her father's taste.

...material. The lyrics can really sap you with a sudden, gleeful surprise. One of Lowe's best tunes, Marie Provost, sounds like an innocuous remembrance of a faded silent-screen star until the first chorus comes up. Then the sweet little ditty becomes a carbolic valentine to an actress who died destitute in a cheap hotel and whose pet dachshund dined on her undiscovered remains. "She was a winner," Lowe sings, "then she became the doggie's dinner." Lowe has also turned out a jumpy, ironic paean to the Bay City Rollers, and one of Edmunds' best...
