Princess Caroline Said Her Strongest Bond Was Not With Her Mother, Grace Kelly
Princess Caroline says that the nanny, Maureen Wood, was the go-to person in the lives of herself and Prince Albert.
“For my brother and I, Maureen was a key figure in our life. When we were little, we were probably closer to our nanny than to our parents.”
Princess Caroline said that they dreaded the nanny’s days off and vacation time.
“We were sad for days. Most often than not, our mother would end up calling her to ask her to come home earlier than planned.”
