The Prince's son and heir, PRINCE ALBERT, and his daughter, PRINCESS STEPHANIE, also attended the gala at the Monte Carlo Sporting Club. Prince Rainier's eldest daughter, Princess Caroline, was not present, having recently given birth to a baby girl with her new husband Prince Ernst of Hanover. A host of celebrities attended the charity event held by the Grimaldi family at Monte Carlo's exclusive Sporting Club. As guests arrived they were met with a battery of society photographers clamouring for pictures. The event was the place to be seen on Friday night. But behind the glitz and glamour was a more serious purpose to raise money for the Red Cross. During the gala, guests were treated to a performance of an extract from the latest musical to take Paris by storm, Notre Dame de Paris. The musical's composers, Luc Plamandon and Richard Cocciante, were among the audience. A spectacular firework display followed. Princess Stephanie and Prince Albert then lead guests on to the dance floor, as the evening drew to a close.

Wide top shot crowd waving banners and flags STORYLINE: Prince Albert II formally assumed Monaco's throne on Saturday during a day of ceremony and celebration to usher in the modern-day monarch and bid a final farewell to his late father, Rainier III. Princes and princesses from Britain, Sweden, Denmark and Morocco were among the royal representatives flying into the tiny Riviera principality for festivities that began with a Mass at Monaco's 19th century cathedral. 46-year-old Albert automatically took royal powers upon the death of his father in April and was appointed His Serene Highness in July, when he was sworn in before the people of Monaco in the first of a two-part investiture ceremony. This round of festivities coincides with Monaco's national day on Saturday and was intended as Albert's coming out party before foreign dignitaries and royalty, though no kings and queens were expected. Ceremonies began on a solemn note, with Monaco's Archbishop Bernard Barsi leading a morning Mass for Albert in the cliff-top cathedral where his father and mother, Hollywood beauty Grace Kelly, were married and are now buried. Accompanied by his sisters, princesses Caroline and Stephanie, Albert then proceeded to the nearby royal palace, where the Grimaldi dynasty has ruled for 700 years. There, to mark the symbolic transfer of power, Rainier's standard was presented to the royal guard for the last time at the gates of the palace, and Albert was presented with a royal standard, or banner, bearing his emblem. He then joined the rest of his family on the palace balcony. The ceremony marked an emotional farewell to Rainier, Europe's longest-serving monarch who ruled Monaco for 56 years until his death at the age of 81. After a lifetime in his father's shadow, Albert has emerged as an assured leader determined to promote dynamism in Monaco's banking industry and clean up the principality's image as a haven for tax evaders and dirty money. Other festivities planned for Saturday include a luncheon at the royal palace for invited guests. In the afternoon, Albert, a devoted soccer fan, plans to attend a match between Monaco and Saint-Etienne, followed by a performance of Rossini's opera "Voyage to Reims" at the grand Monte-Carlo Opera.

Various shots of fireworks display STORYLINE The people of Monaco celebrated into the early hours of Wednesday along the Mediterranean enclave's yacht-filled port to fete the ascension to the throne of their new ruler, Prince Albert II. Albert, followed by his two sisters, Princess Caroline and Princess Stephanie, and the rest of the Grimaldi family, led a procession through the streets of the principality, greeting cheering revellers. He later addressed the crowds who had gathered to celebrate the event. "On this day of my coronation, this image of a population gathered, strengthens our faith in the future of our country," he told them. Earlier on Tuesday Albert was proclaimed ruler of Monaco at a Mass in the white stone cathedral where his father and mother, Hollywood beauty Grace Kelly, are buried. The day's festivities culminated in a spectacular fireworks display over the port, set to tunes by U2 and Pink Floyd. Albert, 47, is coming into his own as a modern-day monarch. Last week, the sporty bachelor unblushingly acknowledged fathering a child out of wedlock. After a lifetime in the shadow of his father Prince Rainier III, who died in April, Albert emerged as an assured leader in his first speech to his subjects. He outlined plans to promote dynamism in the banking industry but stressed that money laundering would not be tolerated. Prince Albert Alexandre Louis Pierre, Marquis of Baux, is a bobsledder who took part in the last five Winter Olympics and has headed Monaco's Olympic Committee since 1994. Long seen as timid and retiring, he has shown a more forthcoming side since his father's death. Last week, as the three-month mourning period for Rainier ended, Albert confirmed news reports that he fathered a child with an African-born Air France flight attendant. In another surprise, the night before taking the throne Albert told France's TF1 television there may be others with paternity claims, though he didn't offer details. The prince automatically took royal powers upon the death of his father but did not formally embrace his role as His Serene Highness until Tuesday. His accession to the throne is a two-step event, with another ceremony expected to draw heads of state on November 19 (2005).

Mid shot of Monaco STORYLINE Prince Albert took over Monaco's royal powers on Thursday, assuming all but the throne in the tiny principality after a royal commission decided that his critically ill father was too sick to perform his duties. The announcement by the royal palace marked the first time since 1949 that Prince Rainier III - Europe's longest-serving ruler - had not been in control of the Mediterranean realm smaller than New York's Central Park and famed as a playground for the rich and famous. Albert, 47, is the only son of Rainier and his late wife Grace Kelly, the American beauty who exchanged Hollywood stardom for the life of a princess. Well-travelled, multilingual and Monaco's top ambassador in recent years, the unmarried Albert is regarded as a shy, even reluctant, heir. Albert promised to devote himself "with strength, conviction and passion" to his new role as regent. "The state of health of our father remains very fragile," he said in a statement. "Today, faced with the difficulty for my father in exercising his high functions, I will assume all of the royal powers in his name." Rainier, 81, was hospitalised on March 7 and has been intensive care for 10 days with breathing, kidney and heart problems. The Council of the Crown, a commission appointed by Rainier, met on Thursday at the royal palace that overlooks Monaco's yacht-filled harbour and decided after weighing his doctors' diagnosis that the ailing prince can no longer rule. The regency means Albert takes over royal powers while Rainier is sick, but his father could regain them if he recovers, a palace spokesman said. Rainier keeps the throne. Albert has been groomed to rule the principality run for seven centuries by his family - the Grimaldis. But he has remained heirless - causing such concern that the constitution was revised in 2002 to ensure the continuation of the dynasty. His older sister - Princess Caroline, now 48 - would succeed him. She in turn, would be succeeded by her oldest son, Andrea Albert Pierre, now 20. Befriended by numerous celebrities, Albert has remained doggedly his own person and, despite his retiring nature, increasingly assumed the role as Monaco's public face as his father grew frail. There had long been speculation that Rainier, his health increasingly fragile, would turn over power to his son. But the decision was finally made for him, when Rainier's long-failing health became critical.

Albert and Caroline standing on balcony watching procession STORYLINE: Prince Rainier III of Monaco was clinging to life on Friday, with doctors refusing to say whether he could recover. His son and heir appeared on a palace balcony before subjects praying for their ruler's life. It was the first appearance of Prince Albert since his father entered an intensive care unit on Tuesday with heart, kidney and breathing problems. Doctors refused to say whether the 81 year-old head of Europe's longest-ruling dynasty might survive. A health bulletin signed by three doctors appeared grim, saying Rainier's state of health "remained worrisome." Albert, 47, and his older sister Caroline, 48, appeared on a balcony as a traditional Good Friday procession passed the palace. Caroline, whose husband, Prince Ernst August of Hannover, also was present, bowed her head, praying with her subjects. A priest leading the procession, which carries a statue of Jesus Christ through Monaco's streets, asked the faithful to pray "for all men who suffer, for the ill, for innocent victims." Rainier, who has ruled this Mediterranean principality since 1949, was suffering heart, kidney and breathing problems, and the doctors withheld a prognosis, suggesting the outcome was uncertain. "Because of the fragility of his cardiac, respiratory and kidney functions, the vital prognosis remains reserved," a medical bulletin issued Friday said. The medical team at the seaside Cardio-Thoracic Centre called in a specialist from Paris because of "the gravity of the situation," the bulletin said. Dr. Jean-Charles Piette, chief of internal medicine at Paris' La Pitie Salpetriere hospital, examined Rainier on Thursday night, said palace spokesman Armand Deus. The team decided to continue the current treatment. Priests asked worshippers at Good Friday services in Monaco to pray for Rainier, who has led the more than 700-year-old Grimaldi dynasty, said Deus. Prince Albert, 47, and his two sisters, Caroline, 48, and Princess Stephanie, 40, have been at Rainier's bedside since he was placed in intensive care. The appearance of Albert and Caroline before the crowd was heavy with symbolism, as if to prepare Monaco for change. Albert, a bachelor, would become the new ruler should his father die. Caroline is next in line. Monaco revised its constitution in 2002 to allow power to pass from a reigning prince who has no descendants to his siblings. Both of Albert's sisters have children. Rainier was hospitalised March 7 with a chest infection. His health suddenly worsened, and he was transferred Tuesday to the intensive care unit of the Cardio-Thoracic Centre. The silver-haired Rainier is like a father figure to many here, and some residents were bracing themselves for what would be a new era. The prince has left his mark on his principality smaller than New York's Central Park, transforming Monaco into a modern and elegant enclave for the rich. Rainier's movie-star wife, Grace Kelly, died in a car crash in 1982. Rainier has been in and out of the hospital recently. He has a history of heart problems and has been plagued by recurring respiratory tract ailments.
