Birthday of Charlene of Monaco: where is Nicole Coste, the ex of Albert II?
Charlène of Monaco, who turns 44 this Tuesday, January 25, 2022, has been invisible for more than 2 months. But she’s not the only one. After a devastating interview with Paris Match, at the end of August, Nicole Coste, ex of Albert II, returned to the shadows. Or almost…
She is the other “disappeared” of the rock. But unlike Charlene of Monaco, whose princely palace strives to give more or less reassuring news, Nicole Coste, ex of Albert II and mother of son Alexandre Grimaldi-Coste, seems price of being forgotten. True that after a few appearances in Paris and in the principality at the beginning of the summer, the former air hostess created turbulence with an interview given to Paris Match, end of August.
Contempt of Rainier III for his vanquished, rivalry with Charlene, proposal of assistance to Albert II… The interview made “mad” the sovereign, who expressly dissociated himself from it in the columns of Point of view. Since then, not a sign of life. While a very soon return of Charlene nourishes hopes, the fate of Nicole Coste has everything of a taboo subject. Except on the other side of the Channel. This is Richard Eden, columnist for the Daily Mail, who informed us about its future, last December.
To believe it, Nicole Coste, returned to UK where she had tried a career as a stylist in the 2000s, would not no better disposed towards Charlene, who turns 44 on January 25.

Why should I care?”. Nicole Coste would have assured him again, about Charlène: “It’s a return of karma for her.”
“The Monegasques love me more than Charlene”
Still according to Richard Eden, the ex of Albert II would feel supported by Monegasques: “They love me more than Charlene. They are full of love and respect for me”, she would have named him. Despite the sovereign’s anger after his interview in Paris Match, Nicole Coste would also have taken the opportunity to deny a broken property between them. She would always be “close” of his son’s father, 18 years old since this summer. “I have known him for 25 years”, she would have argued with the editorialist of the Daily Mail. Reported proposals that engage Richard Eden, in the absence of an official speech by Nicole Coste. In his interview with Paris Match, the ex-stewardess had already complained about an interview with the Daily Mail which would have changed his words.
More certain, if we rely on his statements to our colleagues from Paris Match, it is far from being a cordial understanding with Charlene. Nicole Coste would have “experienced things that alerted and shocked (him)” before the marriage of Albert II and the ex-swimming champion, in July 2011. “She has, for example, changed my son’s room, taking advantage of his father’s absence to install him in the employee wing. As a mother, I can’t find words to describe these actions.“, was, for example, moved Nicole Coste in her interview with Paris Match. End of 2021, Jazmin Grace Grimaldi, eldest daughter of Albert II and half-sister of Alexander, did not seem more content to have been forgotten by Charlene on his greeting card.
