Charlene, Princess of Monaco

Charlene, Princess of Monaco, is the wife of Prince Albert II and the Princess Consort of Monaco. She is newsworthy due to her participation in the historic visit of Pope Leo XIV to Monaco. The Pope's visit marks the first time a Pope has visited Monaco, where Catholicism is the official religion. Princess Charlene, along with her daughter Gabriella, utilized the 'privilege of white' during the visit, wearing white attire in the presence of the Pontiff. This privilege is typically reserved for queens and consorts during papal audiences. The visit itself is significant as Pope Leo XIV used the occasion to deliver a message about wealth redistribution, highlighting social issues on an international stage.
