Reports of a split between Charlotte Casiraghi and Dimitri Rassam were wide of the mark. In fact, Princess Grace's beautiful granddaughter is busy making plans to walk down the aisle. Charlotte was photographed back in Monaco this week - and there for all to see on her left hand was the stunning engagement ring presented to her by her fiacé a year ago in Paris - proving that all is well with her film producer love.
