It was July 2, 2011, when Mr Prince Albert and Princess Charlene of Monaco were climbing the steps of the church. Twelve years later, the couple celebrated their wedding anniversary, having had two children. Through the official Instagram account, a tender photo of the couple was posted, which was taken in April at the Sainte Devote rugby tournament.

“Happy wedding anniversary to Their Highnesses Prince Albert and Princess Charlene,” she captioned the photo, which showed them happy and chatting.

The couple first met shortly after the 2000 Sydney Olympics. On 23 June 2010, they announced their engagement, with Charlene wearing a unique diamond engagement ring. Fifty-five years after the ‘Wedding of the Century’ between Prince Rainier and Hollywood star Grace Kelly, their lavish £53 million nuptials took place, with Princess Charlene stunning in her silk Armani wedding dress, embroidered with 40,000 crystals Swarovski.
