Married twice - first to an American, and later to a French - Daisy has indeed come a long way from her South Sulawesi island in Indonesia.
Highly protective of her two beautiful daughters, Daisy fought tooth and nail to rescue Manohara from her allegedly not-so-charming prince, 32-year-old Tengku Muhammad Fakhry Petra.
Malaysiakini spoke to Daisy last week while waiting for Manohara to finish shooting a soap opera at a studio of a private television station in Jakarta.
When did you and your daughter meet the prince?
We met Tengku (Muhammad Fakhry Petra) at a dinner party; this dinner was held for (Prime Minister) Najib Abdul Razak, so Najib was also there. The prince introduced himself to Manohara and me, my first impression of him was that Tengku was a well-mannered person.
