Monaco's Princess Stephanie weds an acrobat. Really.
PRINCESS Stephanie has stunned Monacoâs royal family by marrying her boyfriend, a Portuguese circus acrobat.
| Guess we know what she likes to do in her spare time... |
Stephanie and her new husband, Adans Lopez Peres, were married on Friday in a private ceremony, palace spokesman Armand Deus said yesterday.
| You don't even want to see the honeymoon pictures... |
Mr Peres would be the second circus man in the princessâs life. She separated from Swiss circus director and elephant trainer Franco Knie last year.
| Wasn't... ummm... strict enough for her? |
The 38-year-old princess — the horniest one of three children of Prince Rainier and the late American actress, Grace Kelly — is closely followed in the tabloids for her tumultuous love life.
| Which occasionally seems to consist of anyone who walks by... |
The princess had two children, Louis and Pauline Grace, with her one-time bodyguard Daniel Ducruet, whom she married in 1995, only to divorce a year later. In 1998, Princess Stephanie gave birth to a daughter, Camille. She refused to name the father, though he was said to be another bodyguard, Jean-Raymond Gottlieb.
| "I think it was the one with the hat..." |
The prince, who once banished his wayward daughter to the Alpine resort of Auron, 80 miles from Monaco, where it seemed she might lead a quieter life, has accepted Stephanieâs three children. However, he could not bring himself to sanction the Knie affair. His views on her latest marriage are unclear. Mr Peres, a 28-year-old circus acrobat and juggler is said to be "besotted" with Stephanie — despite the difference in their backgrounds.
| I dunno. It sounds like he's marrying beneath himself. But then, I'm kinda old-fashioned... |
