Just a week ago, Charlene and Albert celebrated the National Day of Monaco, also known as the Sovereign Prince's Day.

The annual holiday takes place on the same day as Prince Albert of Monaco ascended to the throne.

The day is typically celebrated with fireworks over the harbour the evening before and a mass in the St. Nicholas Cathedral the next morning.

During last week's celebrations, Charlene and Albert were joined by their young twin children, Princess Stephanie of Monaco and Princess Caroline of Hanover as the celebrations got under way, as well as Caroline's children Andrea, Charlotte and Pierre.

They also spent time at a charitable gift giving event in aid of the Monaco Red Cross earlier this month.

The couple spent time chatting to visitors, shaking their hands and hearing stories about their lives.

The Red Cross is a charity clearly close to the royal's hearts, with the couple hosting a gala ball in aid of the charity each July.

Charlene also delighted fans by sharing a picture of her twins' first visit to the hairdressers on Instagram, ahead of their third birthday in December.

She posted a snap of Jacques and Gabriella, two, admiring each other's new haircut on her Instagram account.
