Charlene of Monaco: this day when she totally let go in front of the Monegasques
Will Charlene of Monaco do the honor of her presence at the Monaco Grand Prix, which takes place from May 27 to 29 in the Principality? Some may have forgotten it, but during the 2018 edition, Prince Albert’s wife made a remarkable appearance at this annual event. Usually cold and reserved, the former sportswoman is totally let go.
Forget the sound of waves and the chirping of birds. For a weekend, Le Rocher will live to the rhythm of the roar of engines. Charlene de Monaco, who made a remarkable appearance alongside her daughter, during a fashion event this Tuesday, May 24, did not not confirmed its presence at the Monaco Grand Prix, which began this Friday, May 27 and is due to end this Sunday, May 29. Seen alongside Charles Leclerc in 2019, it is above all his arrival earlier which marked the spirits. During the 2018 edition, Prince Albert’s wife revealed a rather unknown facet of her personality. Once is not custom, the princess has let down the barriers and sent decorum flying.
After winning on the circuit against Sebastian Vettel and Lewis Hamilton, Australian Daniel Ricciardo is, as tradition requires, mounted on the first step of the podium to receive the famous and coveted prize. If the trophy for the 76th edition of the Monaco Grand Prix was presented to him by Prince Albert in person, the Australian champion also the honor to exchange a kiss with Princess Charleneradiant in a colorful maxi dress by Akris, who appeared relaxed and all smiles for the occasion.
A princess as we have rarely seen her
In order to celebrate his victory as it should be, Daniel Ricciardo then joined Prince Albert, his wife Charlene, as well as Pierre and Andrea Casiraghi, the sons of Caroline of Monaco, gathered for the occasion. Despite the presence of several elite members behind him, the F1 champion let his joy explode. And Charlene too. In the euphoria of the moment, the Australian racing driver turned to the former professional swimmer to offer her a drink from the neck of the bottle of Magnum made available to the winner and already open. Yet accustomed to remaining discreet and withdrawn during official events, Charlene of Monaco gladly accepted the sportsman’s proposal.
That day, Charlene of Monaco broke the codes
Breaking corresponding to conventionsPrincess Charlene has indeed lent herself to the game without flinching, under the amused gaze of her husband and nephews, present at his side on the podium. In full view of everyone, she grabbed the bottle of champagne – which also seemed heavy for her size – a drank a sip, before returning it to its owner. Between bursts of spontaneous laughter and childish grimaces, Jacques and Gabriella’s mother is seemed very comfortable during this sporting eventawarded each year on Le Rocher.
A way for her to silence evil tongueswho calls her cold and distant, and to show that a princess could also have fun. So, was it the May heat that made her so perky that day? Or maybe the champagne bubbles? One thing is certain, it’s been a long time since Charlene, who has gone through a number of personal trials in recent months, has not appeared so jovial and carefree…
