Princess Charlene was snapped looking serious while attending the opening ceremony of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games last night.
The 46-year-old royal accompanied her husband Prince Albert of Monaco,66,as they attended the event held at the city's Trocadero Stadium.
Mother-of-two Charlene looked chic in a dusky pastel jumpsuit,teamed with a silver clutch and heels. She styled her short blonde tresses into a chic up do.
However,at times during the event,the royal was photographed appearing to look slightly glum as she took in the action.
Some images from the event show the royal appearing pensive while watching from the stands,meanwhile another snap shows Charlene speaking with her husband,with a serious expression on her face.
Princess Charlene began her swimming career in 1996 and represented South Africa at the 2000 Sydney Olympics
'And then I burst into tears some more because I was thinking 'Oh no,now the whole world has seen me cry''.'
Three years later,Charlene gave birth to twins Jacques and Gabriella,who were the first legitimate heirs to the throne after Albert's children out of wedlock.
In 2021,the princess took a prolonged medical hiatus in South Africa which saw her spend most of the year away from her husband and children.
She missed both the seventh birthday of her twins and her tenth wedding anniversary.
In April 2022 the couple were seen together for the first time in more than 12 months. Charlene then returned to full-time public duty in May of that year.
