Princess Caroline remained with her second husband, Italian financier Stefano Casiraghi, for seven years until his untimely death. In 1990, Stefano defended his World Offshore Championship speedboat racing title with his co-pilot Patrice Innocenti. When his 42-foot boat hit a wave at over 90 miles an hour, it overturned.
Both boatmen were rushed to Princess Grace Hospital, where Stefano was pronounced dead. His death left Princess Caroline crippled by depression, unable to perform public functions for six years. The pair had three children together.
