Now THIS is news. Wonder how the succession will be worked out if the twins are one of each?
If they are twins and are one of each it won’t matter whether the boy or girl is born first because the boy with supperceed his sister in the succession dur to the fact that Monaco prefers male preferance primogeniture.
similarly, if they do have twins and both are girs and then a boy is born later, he will then superceed his sisters even though he is younger than them. i hope this answers your question Eluzabeth Pease.
One of the babies (or maybe both) will look like Grace kelly.
