What is certain is that it has already been a success. Spread late in the evening of Tuesday 19 January, it soon made its way around the web also thanks to the presence of children, who appeared very grown up, especially in height, from the last official family shots.

The twins, who turned 6 on 10 December, have always been an integral part of the life of the Principality, in the spotlight, albeit not overexposed. Nothing demanding, of course, games, school and family take precedence, but since they were born they have not missed any of the important family appointments, from the National Day to the celebrations for the patron Saint Devote. “They have to get used to”, had told his father Alberto a couple of years ago during an interview with People, on the occasion of the life that awaits them.

Jacques one day will succeed him to the throne, although he was born a few minutes later than his sister (in Munich the Salic law is still in use, ed) Gabriella will be freer but it will be difficult to escape an active life next to her brother, a bit like it was for Carolina of Monaco and her sister Stéphanie, at least until Alberto’s wedding.


For now everything is a fun game, as it should be. “Cresurrect two twins it is often exhausting but also very stimulating», Mum Charlène a declared last year Point of view, but the most beautiful thing is the relationship between the children: «They share an indescribable bond of incredible affection and sweetness. They talk to each other all the time and, like all children, they can sometimes be a little rough, a little difficult in their exchanges, but they support each other unconditionally ». The conditions to be like this even when grown up are all there.
