Honoré II was born in 1597, the son of Ercole Grimaldi and Maria Landi. On his father's death in 1604, he became lord of Monaco at the age of six, under the regency of his uncle Federico Landi, his mother's brother. In 1612 he was the first to take the title of Prince of Monaco, consolidating the principality's sovereignty and placing Monaco under French protectorate. In 1616 he married Ippolita Trivulzio.
Hercules Grimaldi was born of this union.
