Monaco's Princess Caroline has been romantically linked to London-based gallery owner Gerard Faggionato, after not being seen with her husband for 18 months.

Monaco's Princess Caroline has been romantically linked to London-based gallery owner Gerard Faggionato.

The 53-year-old royal - who has reportedly been estranged from her husband Prince Ernst August of Hanover for 18 months - was spotted at the art dealer's 50th birthday party in Italy, sparking rumours of a blossoming relationship.

According to Britain's Hello! Magazine, Caroline - who is the eldest daughter of Prince Rainier III and Hollywood actress Grace Kelly - stopped off at the glitzy bash whilst on her annual cruise of the Mediterranean on her yacht Pacha III.

Handsome Gerard, a favourite with the London society set, welcomed Caroline to the nightclub along with 300 guests on the jet setters' island of Panarea, just north of Sicily.

It comes almost a year after her husband Prince Ernst was rumoured to be dating Iranian-born Maryam Sachs.

The pair have been friends for years and even holidayed together in the past, but reportedly started to spend increasing amounts of time together within weeks of his split from Caroline after 10 years together.

The princess was "humiliated" further this year, when her husband was photographed allegedly kissing another woman in Thailand.

German magazine Bunte published pictures in January showing Ernst embracing an unknown woman on Phuket's Freedom Beach.

It claimed the mystery woman was a double for Caroline, "only somewhat younger" - and said the couple made no secret of being together on a beach frequented by 30 to 40 boatloads of tourists every day.

Caroline - who is yet to divorce Ernst - has been married three times. She divorced her first husband, Philippe Junot, while her second, businessman Stefano Casiraghi - with whom she has three children - was killed in a powerboat crash off the French coast in 1990.

Caroline also has an 11-year-old daughter with Ernst, who has two children from his own first marriage, to Swiss chocolate heiress Chantal Hochuli.
