Old news,rather. But here it is.

Albert admits fathering stewardess' child
By Craig S. Smith The New York Times

THURSDAY, JULY 7, 2005
PARIS In what is either a fairy tale come true or a true confession of an expensive indiscretion, Prince Albert II of Monaco officially recognized paternity of a boy born to a French-Togolese woman nearly two years ago, automatically conferring on the former stewardess' infant son the eventual rights to a thick slice of his billion-dollar fortune.

The prince, who assumed the Monegasque throne upon the death of his father, Prince Rainier III, in April, issued a statement through his lawyer saying he "has and will continue to face up to his responsibilities" after having fathered the child with Nicole Coste, whom he met in July 1997 on an Air France flight from the French Riviera to Paris.

The statement noted that the situation was a private matter and would have no affect on Monaco's future dynastic succession. Monaco amended its constitution in April 2002 to restrict succession to children whose parents are married.

The child's existence was first revealed in an interview with Coste in the pictorial magazine Paris-Match in May, just weeks after Rainier died. The revelation shocked the Grimaldi family's fans, many of whom assumed that the unmarried prince was gay.

Coste said in the interview that she had decided to go public because the prince had not made good on his promise to register as the child's father upon his own father's death. She said that he had privately acknowledged his paternity following a DNA test but had never given her the papers to prove her claim.

The prince is now expected to register as the father of the boy, Alexandre Coste, making the child his heir under both French and Monegasque law, which was liberalized several years ago to give equal rights to so-called "natural" offspring born to unmarried adults.

Under the law, which prevents parents from disinheriting their children, Alexandre will inherit half of Albert's estate if he is the sole heir upon his father's death. The other half would go to whomever Albert designates. If there is another heir, Alexandre and that person would each receive a third of the estate, with the third being distributed according to the prince's wishes.

Albert's fortune is worth more than $1 billion and could be close to $2 billion, according to Frederic Laurent, author of a biography of Albert's father. Most of that comes from the inheritance he received upon his father's death.

The prince could not be reached and the Monaco palace declined to comment, as did Nicole Coste, reached through her attorney, Daniel Vaconsin. Vaconsin said that Coste would now press for the prince to formalize child support payments, which he said have been made to her on an ad hoc basis by the Grimaldi's Parisian attorney, Thierry Lacoste. "She has more needs now," Vaconsin said. "She needs a bodyguard and of course returning to work as a stewardess is out of the question."

The prince's statement, released by Lacoste, said that "His Serene Highness Sovereign Prince Albert II of Monaco" was "stunned" by the Paris-Match photo spread showing him holding and feeding young Alexandre on various occasions.

It said the prince deplored the fact that the revelation was made within days of his father's death and when the official three-month mourning period had just begun. It said he had decided not to speak out during the mourning period out of respect for his father.

Earlier this month, a court awarded the prince 50,000, about $60,000, in damages after he sued Paris-Match for invasion of privacy.

The statement said the prince hoped that young Alexandre would be able to spend his childhood and adolescence in peace without interference from the media, and appealed to reporters and editors to show the same restraint that they have in other, similar situations - presumably a reference to Mazarine, the daughter of the late French president Francois Mitterrand and his mistress. The French press did not reveal her existence until Mitterrand himself chose to speak publicly about her when she was 20.
