She Ain't Messin' With No Broke Princes

Prince Albert! Dude, I see this on Maury Povich all the time. Hood rats/rural rats claim that some skank tricked them and/or that they are not the "baby daddy." But, here's a trick for rich, educated heirs to a throne who screw women around the globe: If you don't want children, get fixed or wear a damn condom!

Prince Albert II of Monaco told the New York Times that he was tricked into fatherhood by his West African ex-girlfriend of five years, Nicole Coste, after she stopped taking her contraceptive pills.

'Yes, I think I was set up,' said Albert, who officially became ruler of his Mediterranean state in July. That was also the month the 47-year-old bachelor found out he had a son with Coste, a former Air France flight attendant from Togo who gave up all the dirt on their long-rumored relationship to the French celebrity magazine Paris Match.

The child, Alexandre, was born in 2003; his mother has two children from a previous marriage.

Albert told the Times that he was still 'coming to terms' with his accidental fatherhood. He said he had seen the child only once since the story became public 'because of his mother's attitude toward me.'

'It's not a very pleasant situation,' he said. 'My only concern now is the well-being of the kid.'

Gosh! It's bad enough that he's known as a jet-setting, ho hopper but it's just plain nasty that he has unprotected sex and, in this day and age, doesn't take responsibility for his own contraception.

Pay the piper!
