Prince of Monaco Albert II finally married

Just recently, an exclusive royal wedding took place, in which the Cinderella of the people turned into a princess of Monaco. She became a professional swimmer from South Africa Charlene Whittstock. Since ancient fairy-tale times, the attributes of the royal wedding have changed a little, the bride was wearing a gorgeous dress from Armani, and instead of a coach for the young, there was a brand-new Lexus made especially for this wedding. The whole tiny European country was waiting for the wedding. Prince of Monaco Albert II and his chosen wife were married in the church. For the sake of this ceremony, Charlene Whittstock, a former Protestant, accepted Catholicism.

A lavish wedding ceremony lasted all weekend. First, the 53-year-old Prince of Monaco Albert II and Charlene underwent an ordinary civil ceremony of marriage. The beautiful bride, who on this day became a princess, was dressed in a light-cyan wedding dress with a jacket from the famous designer from Italy Giorgio Armani. She had an amazingly modest hairstyle and diamond earrings in her ears. The Prince of Monaco was dressed in a snow-white uniform of a carabineer.

The ceremony was held on the territory of the prince's palace, attended by 850 guests, most of whom were members of royal families and heads of many states. On the square in front of the palace gathered about 3,500 people, whom the newly-married couple welcomed from the balcony. The very next day the wedding took place in the church. The ceremony was held by the Archbishop of Monaco, Bernard Barsi. The wife of the Prince of Monaco Charlene, who has already become a princess, and Prince Albert after the wedding went to the Opera Garnier for a gala dinner.

According to numerous rumors, the romance of this couple lasted for 8 whole years, and the wedding could not take place at all, since the bride was supposed to escape to her homeland from under the crown. This happened when the young bride learned that her future husband should have a third illegitimate child. Charlene Whittstock has lived in Monaco for several years, but she has not been able to learn French well yet. In addition, she is not a special blue blood, she does not even have a university diploma. But the prince of Monaco chose the former Olympic swimming champion, because she looks very much like his mother to actress Grace Kelly.

Despite the fact that by royal standards a wedding worth 80 million euros is not very chic, but even modest, the whole ceremony was very lavish. During the wedding ceremony, the train of the bride dress was carried by six children. Then the newly minted spouses swept the exclusive Lexus with a special transparent roof. Behind all the action, which was demonstrated on huge television screens, almost all residents of this small country watched. For them, this ceremony was extremely important, since now two square kilometers of the state's territory will remain independent and will not pass under French rule.

Head of the Principality of Prince of Monaco now has a legitimate spouse and it remains only to wait for the appearance of the legitimate heir to the throne. However, the passions did not subside and immediately after the wedding there were rumors that a twist occurred in the couple. But the head of state of Monaco indignantly rejects all these rumors, calling them mercenary, threatening lawsuits "for spreading slander." A couple of weeks after the wedding went on a honeymoon in South Africa and not all the time was together, as it is supposed to happy young couple. But the temporary separation was connected with the official need, during the "honeymoon" the ruler of the Principality of Monaco held several important business meetings, since in addition to the government of the state, Prince Albert is also a member of the International Olympic Committee for 26 years.
