This is a nice follow-up to the Monaco photo set! Watch Charlotte Casiraghi’s first interview. It is delightful. She is with her uncle, Prince Albert II.

First question, about her interest in riding:
I started to ride when I was very young, and it is a sport I have practised for a very long time, and it was a great pleasure for me to participate in the jumping of Monaco. Event was held in the Fondelle tent; they now wished to have it in the harbour and it was a challenge.

Question about her participation :
It was very difficult for me because I haven’t been able to train in the last 3 weeks, so I had to leave my horse in the hands of my trainer, so it is fairly difficult to resume competition without any prior recent training. Fortunately, my horse has extraordinary concentrating powers, (or attitude, or smarts) and he was able to carry me (or support) in that slightly difficult moment, given my injury.

Question about her ambitions as a professional:
For the time being, I am trying to achieve good results in the amateur competitions. Well see how the season develops, but why not ?
