The banker Philippe Junot had a short romance with Princess Caroline of Monaco in the late 1970s. This love affair, which ended with an annulment of their marriage, did not, however, prevent the octogenarian from rebuilding his life. At 84, he even shares a moment of complicity with his daughter from his remarriage.

At the end of the 1970s, daughter of sovereign prince Rainier III, married banker Philippe Junot in 1978, son of former RPR deputy Michel Junot, 17 years his senior. But very quickly, the intimate life of the tandem will be shattered.
The two former lovers accuse each other of being responsible for the breakup. The crown princess blames her husband for infidelities which made it impossible to pursue a decent life as a couple. At the time, the banker was seen as a real playboy, and rumors about his fickle nature were rife in the press. After obtaining their divorce, the two former spouses even decided to have their marriage annulled before the Vatican. An exceptional and long procedure: it was not until 1992, fourteen years after their marriage and twelve after their effective separation, that Pope John Paul II approved this decision..

As the world of crowned heads has never really moved away from the banker, his second daughter also experienced a romantic destiny similar to that of her father. Born in 1991, Isabelle got her start in cinema, starring in small films that were not very successful. If she achieved fame, it was thanks to her marriage to Marquis Álvaro Falcó Chávarri, 4th Marquis of Cubas. In a monarchical country like Spain, this marriage has a real symbolic significance. This is how Isabelle achieved the status of marquise.

As the years pass I get a little nostalgic, but that all changes when the kids come along and discover the magic for themselves. And there’s definitely no better gift than being surrounded by those you love most (even if some are missing here).” writes Isabelle, who had the joy of becoming a mother for the first time last year.
