Prince Albert II and his wife Charlène of Monaco have published this year’s Christmas card. The Grimaldis then stage the perfect family happiness.
It is a long-standing tradition for the Monegasque royals to release a Christmas card just before Christmas Eve. It is adorned with a current family photo that many fans of the dwarf monarchy are eagerly awaiting. This Friday the time had come. “The Prince’s Palace invites you to discover the Christmas photo of the Princely Family,” says the palace’s official Facebook account.

There is actually a lot to discover: Prince Albert II and Charlène of Monaco have dressed up for the occasion, he is wearing a tuxedo with a red bow tie, she is wearing a brown robe. The children are also dressed festively for the occasion. Jacques Honoré Rainier nestles against his mother, on the shoulder of his twin sister Gabriella Therese Marie the fatherly hand rests. Overall, the Grimaldis send the image of a happy family to the world. Just as if nothing had ever happened.
For a long time they were considered the crisis couple among the European royals: the marriage of Prince Albert II of Monaco and his wife Charlène was repeatedly overshadowed by rumors. The relationship had broken down and the spouses had become estranged from each other. In addition, there was a mysterious illness that led to Charlène spending large parts of 2021 away from the principality. Which some in turn saw as evidence of the troubled marriage.
Charlène vehemently opposed such speculations. “My family is my rock,” the native South African told the newspaper “Monaco Matin” around 2022. Also Albert denied these “hurtful rumors.” “Charlène is always by my side,” he told the Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera in September.
