18th Floor IMPERIAL
M. JEAN-CHARLES REY, a Monaco notary
who this month secretly married Prince Rainier's sister Princess Antoinette, has up until now been Prince Rainier's most redoubtable and relentless political foe.
So much so that his opposition to the Prince gave rise recently to nonsensical reports of a plot to dethrone Rainier engineered by Rey in alliance with Princess Antoinette.
This explain the peculiar circumstances surrounding the marriage. Under the Constitution ail members of the Prince's la maly must marry in the Principality.
As Prince Rainier's relations with his sister are strained-and with M. Rey are strained to the point of them not being on speaking is it was impossible to have the wedding in Monaco.
The Prince's inevitable absence from the ceremony would have provoked too much painful comment. As a result the couple married in the Monaco Consulate at The Hague which can be tech-
nically considered Monaco territory.
Both Antoinette and M. Hey have been married before.
DEVOTION
An extraordinary relationship exists between Rainier and his sister Despite the conflicts between them it has always been marked by an almost touching mutual devotion.
Rey a a member of Monaco's 18-man National Council, becaine a brilliant and popular critic of the Prince following the crash in 1955 of a private bank into which thousands of pounds of public money had an poured,
H now remains to be seen whether the marriage will both remove a political foe of Reinier and at the same time reconcile him to his sister.
