Palm Desert, Calif., an oasis that has long been home to presidents and movie stars now has a touch of royalty.
Her name is Jazmin Grace Grimaldi, and she is the 14-year-old out-of-wedlock daughter of Monaco's Prince Albert II and a California woman who reportedly worked as a waitress.
If it sounds like the plot of a Disney movie, it is — almost.
Unlike the fictional Mia of "The Princess Diaries," Jazmin won't face the painful decision of whether to take the throne of the 700-year-old dynasty. The royal family of the tiny principality recognized her Thursday but said she will not be in line to the throne.
Confirmation that Albert was Jazmin's father followed years of rumors about a daughter, and Albert's acknowledgment last July that he fathered a boy out of wedlock by a former flight attendant from Togo.
