Monaco royals at father’s bedside as Rainier is put on life support
An official medical bulletin described the 81-year-old head of Europe's longest-reigning royal family as "stable", as he was put on a respirator at the Riviera principality's Cardio-Thoracic Centre.
Rainier was transferred to intensive care on Tuesday after developing a sudden respiratory infection and "cardiac and kidney insufficiency", a palace statement said.
