Antoine Grimaldi, le Chevalier de Grimaldi, acted as regent for the prince between 1732 and 1784, when Honoré chose to reside in Paris or the Château des Matignon in Normandy. This situation remained the same for half a century until Antoine's death in 1784, when Honoré III was already 64 years old.
