in Paris with Prince Caroline of Monaco,
who is known to be a fan of the breed.]

in the bag used in the alleged attack
had been produced by
Gustav just minutes before.

during the interval on Sunday
from entering the opera house,
and accused her of being responsible
for theatregoers cancelling their
membership subscriptions.]
