'Your papers, please' must never be heard in America
Prince Albert of Monaco is engaged to marry Charlene Wittstock, a former Olympic swimmer for South Africa, in a union that will give this wealthy Mediterranean principality its first crown princess since American-born Grace Kelly died in 1982.
According to protocol, royal couples must wait at least six months between the announcement of the engagement and the wedding day, Ms. Pierrat said.
Miss Wittstock has lived in the principality since 2006, Ms. Pierrat said.
