There's one of her wearing a bathing suit, holding an orange on a stick, with these excited eyes. She's calling, though, from the Prince's Palace of Monaco, where she's visiting for the baptism of her twin baby half- sister and - brother. Theatrically, she describes the majestic living room where she's sitting, its pastel walls adorned with portraits of the late Princess Grace as she's more traditionally remembered: demure Hollywood ingenue, elegant wife of Rainier III, and muse to fashion houses from Herm.

Jazmin Grace Grimaldi on her grandmother Grace Kelly and getting to know her father, Prince Albert II of Monaco.

Jazmin, who shares her grandmother's creamy complexion and is currently growing out a blonde pixie cut, was introduced to Kelly through her films. I'm passionate about acting, singing, and dancing. It was a real goose- bumps moment for me. As Jazmin weaves together an understanding of her grandmother, she is also working to build a relationship with her father. Jazmin's mother, Tamara Rotolo, met Prince Albert in 1. C. The pair had a brief relationship but never married, and after Rotolo became pregnant with Jazmin, she decided to raise her daughter away from the intense spotlight of royal life.

Like Grace, Jazmin grew up in the U. S. Born in Palm Springs and raised in Palm Desert and Orange County, she had a childhood characterized by a conspicuous normalcy: She got straight A's through Catholic school, played the forward position on her middle school's basketball team, and, also like her grandmother, displayed an early appetite for the stage, performing with her church choir and in school plays. But she didn't connect with her father until later on, and just over a decade ago, at the age of 1.

Monaco for the first time. The trip marked a turning point that would redefine their relationship. It's wonderful that it happened when it did, and we've been enjoying a great relationship ever since. The fact that she was the prince's daughter was never a surprise to Jazmin; her mother, with whom she is close, was always honest about her lineage, and communicated occasional messages from her father over the years. But having developed a tendency toward privacy, Jazmin didn't delve into her . Only once the media pieced together Jazmin's story, and the prince formally acknowledged her as his daughter in 2. In Jazmin's case, that meant the arrival of the paparazzi—just in time for puberty, she notes.

But I knew it was going to come someday. It's delicate, but I think I'm ready to step out and share my story a little bit further. Jazmin has since been welcomed warmly by the prince and his wife of four years, Princess Charlene (formerly Wittstock), and has traveled to Monaco many times, sometimes accompanied by Rotolo. On this most recent trip, Jazmin has plans to attend one of the principality's most extravagant annual events, the Grand Prix, but her main focus is on spending time with her new siblings, Gabriella, Countess of Carlad. In Monaco, they recently lodged together with Pauline's mother, Princess St. In New York, the girls attend film premieres together, brave sample sales, and—both foodies—dine out as often as possible.

Jazmin spends much of her time immersed in the arts, whether at Cinema Society screenings or music venues like Le Poisson Rouge and the Village Vanguard. She has also been finding her own voice, so to speak, which, it turns out, is operatically trained and pairs marvelously with an upright bass. After singing with a friend's band in college, she launched her solo career with a cabaret- style showcase, Fall in Love With Jaz (.

Backed by her twangy four- piece band (and citing inspirations from Sia to Freddie Mercury), Jazmin performed soulful takes on musical standards and is planning a follow- up show this fall.

At the same time, she has her eye on a graduate degree in international relations, and—having studied business at Fordham and worked for the U. N.'s World Food Programme—hopes, down the line, to marry humanitarianism with the arts professionally.

At the ripe age of 1. Jazmin Fund, an ongoing philanthropic project currently focused on bringing basic classroom and medical supplies to Fijian villages.

Jazmin's long- term goal with the fund is to return to Fiji and build a community center where local children can engage with music and other arts. Advertisement - Continue Reading Below.

Draped in the season's most elegant gowns, Jazmin personified Old Hollywood glamour while sitting for the pictures in this story, shot by Michael Avedon, whose late grandfather Richard Avedon photographed Grace Kelly. Smiling, she remembers just how early her flair for the dramatic took hold, beginning with her school roles as Belle and Cinderella.
