Who is Alexandre Grimaldi’s rumoured flame Savannah Hennessy – and what’s her royal connection? Grace Kelly’s grandson was spotted at a Gucci show with the cognac dynasty scion

Per Tatler, Grimaldi and Hennessy were seen at a lunch at Glorious Goodwood – an annual horse-racing event held in the English county of West Sussex – together with her mum and a male friend. The pair were also at a Gucci show at Milan Fashion Week together.

For the uninitiated, Alexandre Grimaldi-Coste is the firstborn son of Monaco’s head of state, Albert II, making him a grandson of the late Hollywood icon Grace Kelly.

Grimaldi-Coste’s parents met in 1997 while Prince Albert was on a flight from Nice to Paris. His French-Togolese and former flight attendant mum, Nicole Coste, instantly captivated the young “playboy prince”. Their five-year affair produced a “petit prince” out of wedlock, causing quite a stir at the time.

Per British media, Grimaldi-Coste is now a student at Royal Holloway in London. But what do we know about his rumoured new girlfriend – who also has a royal connection?

Savannah Hennessy’s royal roots

It’s not just her beau who has a royal background – apparently, Savannah Hennessy also comes from a noble lineage. According to Tatler, she is a scion of the cognac dynasty and the granddaughter of Princess Barbara of Orléans. Her mother, Melonie Foster, is an American artist.

She goes to A-list events

Hennessy may not be a household name yet, but she’s been getting invites to all kinds of high-profile events. As seen on her Instagram profile and in photos, she has made appearances at events for brands like Tag Heuer, Kilian and Alexis Mabille, and was also at last year’s Cannes Film Festival. Hennessy can also be seen in outfits from high-end labels including Alberta Ferretti.

She’s a jet-setter

Hennessy isn’t afraid to flaunt her lavish holidays. Her Instagram profile shows her in locations like Saint-Tropez, Paris, New York and Venice.

She loves horses

It’s clear that Hennessy has a soft spot for horses. She has shared a few photos of herself posing with the majestic creatures on her Instagram. “Happy girl,” she wrote in the caption to a post showing her stroking a horse.

She’s represented by the same agency as Kendall Jenner

As seen in her Instagram bio, Hennessy is represented by The Society Management. According to the company’s website, it also counts Amber Valletta, Kendall Jenner, Willow Smith and Leonardo DiCaprio’s girlfriend Vittoria Ceretti among its portfolio of models.

How many children does Prince Albert of Monaco have?

Prince Albert has four children with three different women, per Business Insider. He shares twins Jacques and Gabriella with Princess Charlene, Jazmin Grace Grimaldi with Tamara Rotolo – and then there’s Alexandre Grimaldi-Coste.

Apparently, Grimaldi-Coste gets along with his extended family. Apart from being close to his two older brothers on his mum’s side, he has also developed a bond with his paternal half-sister Jazmin, an American actress and singer.

“I really liked growing up with my brothers, and my mum takes really good care of me – I couldn’t ask for more,” Grimaldi-Coste shared in an interview with Tatler in July. “We are all very close.”
