Jazmin Grace Grimaldi

Grimaldi said in an interview with Tory Daily that she was inspired to start The Jazmin Fund because "From an early age, I’ve been passionate about volunteering and getting involved in local outreach programs, and always wanted to start my own initiative." She said that her best experiences in Fiji was "dancing and singing with the kids of Fiji and seeing the excitement on their faces as we introduced their picture to them—through a camera—for the first time!" And she said that her proudest moment was being able to raise awareness and provide many items off of the villages’ wish list.

Besides embarking on a career as an actress, Grimaldi is also pursuing a career as a singer. On April 10, 2018, she announced that she would release her first single titled Fearless soon.

On March 14, 2018, she traveled to Monaco to celebrate her father's 60th birthday, days before final preparations for 28th Rallye Aicha des Gazelles du Maroc in Morocco, as did the daughter of Princess Stephanie, Pauline Ducruet. Grimaldi took 3rd Place in her class (e-class), for the all-women's event.

Grimaldi first on-screen appearance was a role as a cashier in the TV series Jay & Pluto in 2016. A year later, she starred as Mora in the short film The Scarlet M. Grimaldi starred as Amber in the 2019 film Cicada.

On October 22, 2012, Grimaldi attended the 30th Anniversary of the Princess Grace Awards in New York City with her father and stepmother, Princess Charlene. In an article published in Hello magazine about the event, the Prince was described as protective of his daughter, who was said to admire and respect her father. Grimaldi's first published interview, in 2015 with Harpers Bazaar was conducted at the Prince's Palace of Monaco in Monte Carlo. Grimaldi talked about her grandmother Princess Grace, her father, her siblings and life in Monaco.

Upon graduation, she received The JSerra Senior Faculty Award and the Fine Arts Award. She was also selected to be a lifetime member of The California Scholarship Federation, and has been since she was a sophomore, entitling her to the distinction of Sealbearer. After graduating from JSerra High School, Grimaldi then attended Fordham University from 2010 until her graduation in May 2014.

Prince Albert II publicly confirmed Grimaldi's paternity on June 1, 2006, claiming that he had wanted to protect her identity until she was an adult. Grimaldi is the older half-sister of Alexandre Grimaldi-Coste and of Prince Albert's two legitimate children, Princess Gabriella, Countess of Carladès, and Jacques, Hereditary Prince of Monaco.

Grimaldi grew up in Palm Desert, California and Orange County. She was educated at St. Margaret's Episcopal School where she graduated in 2006 and a Catholic high school, JSerra High School, where she graduated in June 2010. She was an honor student and a soloist in a school choir that performed with singer Barry Manilow.

In February 2006, the French magazine Voici published photographs of Grimaldi and her mother during a visit to Monaco. The Prince has hired the security services of Gavin de Becker and Associates.

On October 26, 2006, Albert II of Monaco gave an interview to US television personality Larry King. Albert said his children are not in line for the Monegasque throne but that they would be taken care of financially. They also stand to inherit a part of Prince Albert's personal fortune, estimated at more than one billion dollars.

In November 2006, Grimaldi visited eight islands in Fiji on a humanitarian mission to help bring the local children assistance in education, medicine, and community development. One of her stops was at a school for the disabled and she donated 30,000 prenatal vitamins to the Savusavu Hospital on the island of Vanua Levu. She has also established a humanitarian fund for the region called Jazmin Fund.

Jazmin Grace Grimaldi (born March 4, 1992) is a Monegasque-American singer, actress, and philanthropist. She is the daughter of Albert II, Prince of Monaco and Tamara Jean Rotolo. Since her parents have never married, she is not in the line of succession to the Monegasque throne.

Grimaldi was born in Palm Springs, California in the United States on March 4, 1992. Her mother, Tamara Jean Rotolo (born October 25, 1961, in California), later a real estate agent, was a waitress at the time she met Prince Albert. Grimaldi was born when her mother's divorce proceedings to David Schumacher were not finalized. She didn't connect with her father until her visit to Monaco at the age of 11.

Extramarital children are common in the ruling family of Monaco – in every generation for the last 100 years a Grimaldi has had an acknowledged child who allegedly did not have legitimacy of birth for the throne. Some of these have obtained succession rights through legitimization or adoption, including Princess Charlotte, Duchess of Valentinois, an extramarital child who was adopted by her own father, and who then ceded her succession rights to her son Rainier on May 30, 1944. Prince Rainier III made obtaining succession rights in this manner impossible for the extramarital children of his son Albert by a 2002 modification to the constitution which limited the succession to direct, legitimate issue born in wedlock.
