Albert's new crowning glory

He was there to see who would claim rugby's most famous crown but it was the crowned head of Albert of Monaco that had everyone talking at the weekend.  The prince was in Paris to see the Six Nations decider between France and Ireland and appeared with a huge dressing over the front part of his head.

As royal headwear goes, it's an unusual look and there's no word as yet as to what happened to the prince.  And his companion in the stands didn't have a great day either.  President Francois Hollande saw his nation's side lose out at the last minute as the Irish side held on to win the Six Nations and send legendary player, Brian O'Driscoll, into international retirement in style.  With St Patrick's Day just around the corner it was perhaps the only ending for a match that caused as much talk at its start and all because of a crowned head with an unusual looking crown of his head.
