Princess Caroline's children were all born in wedlock, but 2 were concieved out of wedlock.

Princess Stephanie's youngest child was born out of wedlock and is not in the line of succession for Monaco. Although Stephanie's first child was also born out of wedlock, she later married the father and thus the child was legitimized.

Regarding Princess Stephanie's children:

Although Stephanie's children were born before her marriage, Monegasque civil law, like French law, provides that natural children are fully and completely legitimized by the marriage of their parents (article 227 of the Monegasque Civil Code states in part: "Les enfants nés hors mariage, autres que les enfants adultérins, sont légitimés par le mariage subséquent de leurs père et mère, lorsque ceux-ci les ont légalement reconnus avant leur mariage ou qu'ils les reconnaissent au moment de la célébration." while art. 229 states: "Les enfants légitimés par le mariage subséquent auront les mêmes droits que s'ils étaient nés de ce mariage"). They are thus apt to succeed. Stéphanie's last child Camille Marie Kelly Grimaldi (b. 15 Jul 1998) of undeclared father, is not (yet) legitimate and thus not in line.

^^To be fair, just like French tradition, because she married their father they were ligitimized.

Even if illegitamate children were included into the line of sucsession, because they were not born in Monaco, they could not be included.

Wiki says that only people with Monegasque nationality are eligible to succeed but I don't think that means they have to be born in Monaco. Princess Caroline's youngest child is in line to the throne but she was born in Austria.

Probably. I remember she was trying to be a singer at one time. Maybe they re-wrote some law preventing her from ever trying that again.

She was always acting out after the car accident with her mother
