Naomi has more than one string to her bow and is not only sporty. The widow of German fashion designer Otto Kern is also a music lover, which makes her a very good pianist. As Prince Charles-Philippe confirms to us, with so many qualities, she could only seduce the family of her future husband. Enough to also have many stories to share during a walk in the old Provençal villages.
Already adopted by the prince’s siblings, Naomi also shares something in common with Princess Theresa, Charles-Philippe’s sister-in-law. The wife of Prince François, Count of Dreux, is German. A descendant of the morganatic branch of the royal family of Württemberg, Theresa has found an accomplice with whom she can speak German during family meals.
In his house in Cabrières, Louis-Philippe I is already hanging on the wall and observing the two lovers. As she learns about her future family, reading This curious family from Orléans by Georges Poisson by the pool, Naomi learns more about the origins of her future husband, when he confides in her while playing a game of backgammon.
In the living room, we cannot miss the painting of the King of the French who looks peacefully at his descendant. On the living room window sills are a few framed photos. There is no shortage of good memories of the couple. We can see several vacation photos, a photo by the sea, with friends and of course, with Prince Albert II of Monaco.
