1 00:00:01,400 --> 00:00:05,360 Speaker 1: And Amanda jam Nation. What do you know of Prince Albert, 2 00:00:05,480 --> 00:00:08,920 Speaker 1: Not the Prince Albert the piercing, not the piercing. Prince 3 00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:12,920 Speaker 1: Albert and Princess Charlene, I know nothing about them. Are 4 00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:18,360 Speaker 1: they English? No, They're from Monaco. He is Princess Grace's son, yes, 5 00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:21,680 Speaker 1: and he had a number of children. According to Billy Joel, 6 00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:26,079 Speaker 1: Princess Grace something that that that we didn't start. Do 7 00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:27,840 Speaker 1: you know all your history and all your life comes 8 00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:30,920 Speaker 1: from words of popular songs. It comes from Billy Joel 9 00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:34,760 Speaker 1: the teachings. According to Billy Well, Prince Albert was the 10 00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:39,519 Speaker 1: young kind of Rakish bachelor until he wasn't he went 11 00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:42,080 Speaker 1: bald and bit podgy. But he had a lot of 12 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:45,479 Speaker 1: illegitimate children. He had babies all over the place, but 13 00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:49,040 Speaker 1: none of them were official heirs. And that's what matters 14 00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:54,120 Speaker 1: in terms of the principality of Monaco continuing its kingdom. 15 00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:59,840 Speaker 1: So he married Princess Charlene in when was it in 16 00:00:59,880 --> 00:01:02,920 Speaker 1: the mid two thousands, I think sometime around them and 17 00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:06,080 Speaker 1: from the minute they got together it's been fraught because 18 00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:10,840 Speaker 1: she was a beautiful Olympic swimmer, South African, tall and blonde, gorgeous. 19 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,759 Speaker 1: But remember on the eve of the wedding, she apparently 20 00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:17,119 Speaker 1: tried to do a runner. Yes, yeah, yes, so from 21 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:18,840 Speaker 1: the minute and then they don't seem to live together. 22 00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:20,200 Speaker 1: She doesn't turn up to a lot of things, and 23 00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 1: suddenly she does from the moment they've been together. They've 24 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 1: been fraught with rumors at this spudding up, but she 25 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:29,399 Speaker 1: has had twins, so she's done her job. Having said 26 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:33,120 Speaker 1: that they are still a couple. They actually they married 27 00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:36,320 Speaker 1: in twenty eleven, but when they first met in two thousand, 28 00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:39,319 Speaker 1: Prince Albert said, it wasn't love at first sight. And 29 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 1: for a big famous couple not to pretend is interesting, 30 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:46,400 Speaker 1: isn't it. He said, they first met in two thousand 31 00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 1: and one or two thousand. We didn't fall in love then, 32 00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:52,160 Speaker 1: he said. And I didn't see Charlene again for several years. 33 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 1: I thought she was an excellent swimmer. She was friendly, 34 00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:57,880 Speaker 1: cheerful and approachable. That's sexy, isn't it. You're friendly, You're 35 00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:01,560 Speaker 1: cheerful and approachable. That's very you'll do, you'll do. So 36 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 1: they waited a number of years before then they got 37 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:05,919 Speaker 1: together and then went on to have this relationship together. 38 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:09,000 Speaker 1: But often relationships don't start with love at first sight. 39 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:12,920 Speaker 1: But I like the idea of couples who really have 40 00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 1: dramatic things happen at the beginning that causes them to 41 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:17,800 Speaker 1: have a huge amount of distasy dally ruled them out.
