Monaco’s Wild Child: Princess Stephanie First Ever Biography by Artsrunik, Valentina (2004) Hardcover

Daughter of Prince Rainier and Hollywood ice maiden Grace Kelly, Stephanie’s gilded upbringing was shattered at the age of 17, by the car crash that killed her mother. She survived the accident, but not the conspiracy-mongering of the media that blamed her for her mother’s death. Already known as a ‘wild child’, the tragedy and the vendetta fuelled a vortex of self destruction. The book tells the story of the men, the drugs, the clinics but also the odyssey from riches to rags that have led the princess to a strange serenity.
