At the DI forum someone posted up a thread about the bride (Princess Charlene) trying to flee three times before her wedding to Prince Albert II. In a post following someone posted a video of their wedding and many people watched it and commented they thought she looked frightened, and unhappy, and a lot of concern was expressed for her. I took a lot of screen shots and now wish I had taken some of the singers as well who looked to be a mother and daughter team. Maybe I can capture some images of that duo later.
I'll start by posting the original (OP) news report of her rumored attempts to flee before the nuptials, and the video, and then follow with several posts of captivating images from the event.
Just before they were to get married news broke that an airline stewardess was pregnant by the Prince. In human terms, that might have had some bearing regarding her emotional state. As magical and tender as it appeared I imagine they are of the bloodlines like others in socialite circles~.

Princess Charlene of Monaco 'tried to flee three times' Princess Charlene of Monaco tried to flee home to South Africa three times before her marriage to Prince Albert II, according to report on Sunday in French newspapers.
The couple's glittering religious wedding drew crowds of thousands to the Mediterranean principality on Saturday and the guest list included a host of heads of state, European royals and stars of the fashion and sports world.
But sources cited by the French press on Sunday said the former Charlene Wittstock, 33, had even tried to take refuge in her country's embassy in Paris in an attempt to get out of the wedding.
Instead senior Palace officials confiscated her passport and then persuaded her to take part in the weekend's nuptials.
"Several sources have even confirmed that an arrangement was reached between the future bride and groom," said a report in Le Journal du Dimanche (JDD), the French national newspaper, which provided no further details.
It followed confirmation by palace sources that Albert, 53, was due to undergo DNA tests because of claims by at least one unnamed woman that he has fathered another illegitimate child.
Monaco's first royal wedding in more than half a century appears to be under threat amid rumours that the bride-to-be came close to calling it all off. The Palace of Monaco has even been forced to issue a statement denying "untruthful allegations" that Prince Albert's South African fiancee was on the verge of walking out after she discovered he was having an affair.
According to the respected French magazine L'Express, Charlene Wittstock, a former Olympic swimmer, had to be talked out of buying a one-way ticket back to South Africa last week. The Times also reported on the story, saying a source confirmed that there had been "an incident" involving the future princess at Monaco's heliport. Palace officials claimed the couple were a victim of a smear campaign.
Yes, I wondered about that upon viewing it too, Paulo. She looked so frightened and very unhappy. Prince Albert looked and acted very icily, no real spark or affection between then in my eyes.
I think I should note, Prince Albert apparently has been associated with alleged MK mind controlled slaves like Karen Mulder. She is the model who appeared on a television show and revealed (and she's not the only model who has stated this) that the fashion industry and models were being used as sex slaves for the elite and that Prince Albert had raped her. They quickly removed her and she was promptly put into a 'rehab'. Ben Singleton did a very extensive post about it and i must say, it seems pretty spot on. http://pseudoccultmedia.blogspot.com/2009/06/karen-mulder-depersonalized-monarch.html
There are many MKUltra terminology and such but its not complicated to follow or understand. I highly recommend his blog for those interested in celebrity connections to it.
