Charlotte Casiraghi Shatters Jet-Set Stereotypes in Book - Charlotte Casiraghi's raw memoir shatters royal stereotypes in La Fêlure
Charlotte Casiraghi, daughter of Caroline of Monaco, has released a deeply personal book titled La Fêlure (The Fissure). The 400-page memoir explores the fragility of life while challenging the stereotypes that have long defined her public image. Published on 29 January, the book marks a rare glimpse into her private world beyond royal expectations. Casiraghi's early life was shaped by tragedy. At just four years old, she lost her father, Stefano Casiraghi, in a speedboat accident. This loss left a lasting impact, one she reflects on in her writing. For years, she has been portrayed through narrow clichés—either as a glamorous It-Girl or a privileged royal figure. In La Fêlure, she pushes back against these labels, offering an unfiltered account of her struggles and self-discovery. Now a mother of two sons, she lives in Paris with a new partner. The book reveals her efforts to balance personal growth with the weight of her family's legacy. The memoir provides a candid look at Casiraghi's journey beyond the headlines. By sharing her vulnerabilities, she aims to redefine how the world sees her. The book is now available, offering readers a perspective far removed from the usual royal narratives.
