Prince Albert at Lady Jean’s funeral on Arran last year. 01_B15albert01
A leading European monarch, and a good friend of Arran, Prince Albert II of Monaco, was in Scotland this week voicing his support for Marine Protected Areas (MPAs), including the one in Lamlash.
The ruling monarch of the Principality of Monaco is a relative of the late Lady Jean Fforde and spent some of his formative years on Arran during family holidays. His last visit was in October last year on the sad occasion of Lady Jean’s funeral.
