On December 26, 2020, Princess Charlene shared new family photos and wished everyone a merry Christmas. The family photos showing together Prince Albert, Princess Charlene, Hereditary Prince Jacques, Princess Gabriella, Princess Stephanie, Louis Ducruet, Marie Chevallier, Camille Gottlieb and Pauline Ducruet were taken at the Prince's Palace in Monaco.
What a fashion disaster my
ردحذفDo not agree, looks like a relaxed Christmas party, hohoho.
حذفWhat a fashion disaster
ردحذفOn one hand, fun to see Albert so relaxed in his choice of outfit, on the other hand...for starters, those shoes are the just worst ...
ردحذفCrocs--really????
ردحذفRED Crocs yet, oy. Kind of dorky, but hey they're all having some fun with the family. ~Laurel~
حذفNow that I discover the crocs for Him, I understand better the new catastrophic punk-hair-look for Her. A disaster.
حذفTheir ancestors must be looking down on them, and thinking what are they wearing!
ردحذفBoots are trendy in Monaco.

Lovely pictures of a family enjoying their Christmas. I don't really care what they're wearing to hang out with each other on this occasion. :-)
ردحذفRight! I’m sure the twins loved Albert’s glasses and hat. I hate the crocs but he’s in his home. I like how Stephanie and Camille styled their Christmas sweaters. Love Pauline’s boots.
حذفE.B.B,
Totally agree Anon 7:38. To see them so relaxed and having fun with each other on this occasion is more important for me too. Their only pleasure and responsibility here is to themselves and each other. Love it.
حذف- Anon 9:13
Indexe, live the pic of Prince Albert and the Sunshine-Twins 👑👑
حذفFashion disaster indeed. There is very little sense of style in that family. The family members who have some good taste (Caroline, Beatrice) are not there, and the rest make for a crazy, excentric lot. Charlene looks rightout scary.
ردحذفAnyway, they look happy, so good for them. It´s nice to see them come together for Christmas.
Die Frisur der Fürstin ist eigentlich das grösste Desaster ....
حذفThe group size is restricted in Monaco as in many other countries in Continental Europe. If I remember it correctly, it's 10 grown-up persons. In an interview earlier this autumn/winter Albert told that due to the restrictions all the family is not coming at the same time to the palace.
حذفPublishing holiday photos should be avoided - even in an ordinary family. Actually I'm enjoying these photos. Certain Christmases our family had come to mind (of course in smaller surroundings).
Margot
I love your web! But do you have a Instagram account? Thanks!
ردحذفI think they are having a good time.
ردحذفAlbert's outfit is hilarious and a fun dad look for the kids.
For most of us, Christmas day is not a fashion event - and many end up with unflattering, silly, happy, loving photos as a result.
ردحذفThis is what it looks like to me here - people being casual and fun without worrying much about appearances. Sweet little ones. A cute dog... same as most of us.
Fortunate to be together on a day many of us couldn't be with family this year.
Who cares what they dress like as long as they enjoy each other company. Let people be themselves instead of playing pretends...there's plenty of that already.
ردحذفSometimes blog board can bring out the worst in humanity.
Here's to better 2021.
Albert's outfit and demeanour made me chuckle, good for him. I agree that fashion wise, the ladies are not very fashionable. In my opinion, Charlene looks more comfortable and relaxed, with this side of the family than with Caroline's.
ردحذفMaybe they thought : let's do silly pictures and see the reactions on the web ! And now they're having a good time.
ردحذفHier wollte das Fürstentum nicht öffentlich
ردحذفauftreten, denke ich.
Alle gelöst und fröhlich, im Familienkreis.
Albert hatte vielleicht die Rolle des Santa Claus
übernommen.
Ich finde es jedenfalls schön.
I am pleased that they had a good time indeed, however was it a good idea to publish pictures? Pleasant to get an insight but good for their image? I get more and more the impression that we have a wrong perception about them . As Vanessa says, the positive thing is that they have a friendly relationship, contrary to some rumors. I want to be positive towards Charlene, but I am at a loss of understanding her. Difficult to make any fashion comment, except that Louis Ducruet is a good-looking man.
ردحذفMy first reaction when I saw the photos was that they were of the Christmas replacement team for the circus of Monte-Carlo with Caroline and company not seen as they were doing the administrative work in the background.
حذفHowever, after a second look, it appears it's a day off to have fun for (some of) the Princley family of Monaco.
Happy holiday period to them all.
Fashion comment: Nothing to say as it's certainly a dress down day with anything goes.
Opps, yes MaryT , Louis Ducruet is quite yummy.
what happened to Charlene hair??
ردحذفGood question!
حذفAnd a question for you dear Precipitevolissimevolmente.
Is that your first/christian name?
If so, I hope your family name is Brown or Smith.
Hello, Deadeggs, your comment is top as always!!
حذفNo, I am sure that the woman with this funny Italian "name" is the same as the one who mixed Italian and English once (maybe a problem with her Google Translator?) and writes so many comments with so many first names /no names changing her opinions on the way.
She seems to be having a lot of fun (good for her) and a great deal of time on her hands...
I think she likes being centre stage.
My very best wishes for the new Year to you to the Administrator and to all the commenters on this site.
God bless us all.
Thanks Maria. We need God or whoever it is up there to bless us all and hopefully to show us how we can enjoy a bit of lightheartness to help us through this unusual period in the world.
حذفEine private Christmas Party , ist kein Fashion Event . Cool das das Fürstenpaar zeigt, das sie lässig und fröhlich,wie Normalos feiern .Super , Albert mit seinen Kindern, so ausgelassen zu sehen ,Charlene ist ganz verliebt in den kleinen Welpen,schöne Aufnahme.
ردحذفlooks like a great evening , very relaxed, everybody has his/her most comfartable clothes on. Like the sweater of princess Stephanie, it looks like something I would wear myself. Best dressed without a doubt is Gabrielle :-)
ردحذفNo comment
ردحذفAbsolutely lovely! :-) Merry Christmas to everyone.
ردحذف-B.
@ Vanessa... well done you are a master criticizing and putting people down, and at the end saying something that wants to resemble good will.. so speaking from both sides of your mouth.
ردحذفHas it occurred to you that this was perhaps a way for the family to have a good time by wearing eccentric outfits. We do that in my tribe, is called ugly Christmas sweater day and we try to outdo each other by wearing crazy stuff.
Chill out.
Sandra
Sandra, Vanessa's post was very pleasant and it had a lot of good will; did you notice Vanessa wrote "Anyway, they look happy, so good for them. It´s nice to see them come together for Christmas."
حذفWhat Vanessa wrote is also true; Caroline in particular is always stylish. And Charlene looks almost scary in the above pics.
I notice nothing to suggest Vanessa should 'chill out', or that she be 'master of criticism and putting people down'. None of that exists in her post.
What you wrote reads like you're not happy with what Vanessa posted, and you go for her personality. - It did not occur to me that they may have been playing whatever, and it does not, because it is irrelevant. This is a fashion blog.
People often find it difficult to allow others to say what they think, when their own opinion is different. But they would expect the opposite, if roles were reversed. - Elli
I agree with Elli.
حذف@Elli, you must not be familiar with Vanessa's diatribes.
حذف@Elli, and I disagree with you, to call Charlene scary is rather mean, she is not, you may like her hair or not, personally don’t care much for it, and I don’t think that they generally dress “ crazy” as Vanessa puts it. The comment is mean, and the end is priceless, is what one says after bashing you... sort of like calling somebody ugly and the saying “ anyway, at least she is tall”... do you get it?
حذفOn the other hand those are the comments that we get from this particular person, so nothing unexpected here.

Hi Sandra,
حذفI find it interesting how you agree with my impression and at the same time manage to attack me for sharing it.
I said that the family members in the photos lack style, look crazy, eccentric and (in Charlene`s case) scary. That they look happy anyway. And that I liked seeing them come together to celebrate.
And then you respond that they maybe "have a good time by wearing eccentric outfits", thus not only confirming that they do look eccentric, but that they have a good time anyway. Isn´t that what I wrote?
"We do that in my tribe, is called ugly Christmas sweater day and we try to outdo each other by wearing crazy stuff". So: ugly, crazy, eccentric - all your words describing the kind of outfits we see in the photos above. Don´t attack me for using the same words.
And for the record, I kind of like the christmas sweaters. They are the least problem in the photos.
To Elli -
Thank you for your kind words.
Vanessa, your track record speaks volumes. Please don't twist words and the way they were used to fit your argument. "Fashion disaster indeed." Negative. "There is very little sense of style in that family." Negative. "The family members who have some good taste (Caroline, Beatrice) are not there, and the rest make for a crazy, excentric [sic] lot." Negative. "Charlene looks rightout scary." Negative and mean, and that concludes your first paragraph.
حذفSandra used "ugly", "crazy", and "eccentric" to refer to what are known as "Ugly Christmas Sweaters". The uglier, crazier and more eccentric the better. You used the words "crazy" and "excentric" (eccentric) to refer to PEOPLE. Then you threw in "scary" for good measure. Pelting them with a few unpleasant names, then tacking on a forced courtesy at the end to make it right is not going to help. The damage is done. I don't know why you can't see this, but I understand that this is just the way you are. I know you enjoy the last word, so you may have it.
To anonymous 8:28
حذفYou sound bitter. If venting at my expense makes you feel better, then I´m happy to be there for you.
@ Vanessa, yes you always have to have the last word, nothing bitter about the comment above by the way. Glad to see that somebody saw your “ clever” maneuver to use my words within the same context that you use yours, but we both know that is no the case right? Criticism about fashion doesn’t have to become an outlet for judgement and disapproval of the ones wearing such fashion, however you always manage to do that. At least this is just your way to be negative about almost everybody, and not your uninformed, unscientific and dangerous ideas that you promote about health issues.
حذفSandra F
Louis Ducruet oviously didn't receive the dress code for the party. He looks a little out of place :-))
ردحذفWhy does everything have to be high fashion with some of you? These are real people. I say good for them. There is nothing to criticize about a family getting together and having fun for Christmas. Props to Albert for committing to red, head to toe. The kids must have loved it. He certainly looks like a fun dad. I always say yes to an ugly Christmas sweater. The uglier the better. They are always good for many laughs.
ردحذف@9:03 You said it! We certainly can see the worst in humanity on here.
Wonder what the current rules are about Christmas parties (lockdown parties) in Monaco!!! Far away from what they are in many countries! They don't care about the example. In this respect it is to be rejected or at least not to be published. Lack of maturity. Monaco in under the administration of France for a lot of rules, wonder what French President thinks of it.
ردحذفMonaco est indépendant, il y a ses propres règles,
حذفPour Noël appel à la vigilance de chacun dans la sphère privée, 6-10 personnes maxi, couvre feu à 23h30.
Nouvel an couvre feu à 20h.
Ou avez vous vu que Monaco était sous administration française, Monaco est un pays indépendant , il a ses propres règles, sa propre administration, son propre chef d'état le prince Albert et son propre gouvernement.
حذفMonaco n'a pas été confiné en novembre et en décembre comme en France, il y a un couvre feu de 20h à 6h du matin mais les restaurants restent ouverts jusqu'à 22h, contrairement en France, les restaurants restent ouverts ainsi que les petits commerces quand au nombre de personnes conseillées pour Monaco est 8 personnes tandis qu'en France c'est 6 personnes, le jour de noel, les personnes ont pu circuler librement et se réunir en France comme à Monaco. Ce que fait le prince de Monaco ne regarde pas le président français

Oh for goodness sake! The lack of maturity is to be found in people who criticise for the sake of it - and without foundation. They shared family pictures to wish people a Happy Christmas - how that shows a lack of respect is beyond me!!
حذفTen adults can gather together. There is no lockdown just an evening curfew which sets in at 8 pm. Covid-19 is under control and due to Monaco's size has been dealt with very efficiently (and continues to be so). They do not have to set an example for anyone outside of Monaco - and they aren't breaking any rules in Monaco.
Monaco is not subject to French administration - it has its own laws made by its very own government. President Macron has no say in how people get to celebrate Christmas in Monaco so nobody cares what he thinks.
Very casual ❗😎
ردحذف*ML*
No wonder Caroline is not on it...
ردحذفCaroline was very likely celebrating with her own children and grandkids which form a large number as well. I'm sure that the entire Grimaldi clan all had their own brand of happy silly fun (as they should) wherever they may be, and enjoyed a merry Christmas. I love seeing the little kids interacting with other extended family members. Charlene's hairstyle fits perfectly with this adventurous side of the family. They all look like they are having fun and it shows us a different, fun side of them. Love it.
ردحذف- Anon 9:13
Mein Gott. Wie Familie Flodder. Was denken die sich dabei? Anscheinend nichts..... Das hätte man sich komplett sparen können. Frieda
ردحذفIt shows that elegance stems from something much personal and deeper than money
ردحذفChristmas jumpers are so festive, I love what Pss Stephanie is wearing. They all look happy and engaging.
ردحذفIndeed just funny pictures of a christmas at home party in lockdown. Having said this really do not understand Charlene. As you compare pictures from the past, she was a natural beauty. In her Monaco period she did a lot of plastic surgery and every month a new hairstyle. This coupe now is really not flattering at all.
ردحذفIf you look at Princess Charlene 's earlier pictures she did not have that much plastic surgery as you commented. She had her nose refined, veneers, lip fillers and a shorter haircut and I think she looks very pretty!
حذفThat pic of Albert with his kids...I thought first what Elton John was doing there, ups ;)
ردحذفMM
I have to laugh at this picture, the Crocs, LOL. I'm pretty sure I can't think of any other royal who would be caught in a picture wearing crocs. This is so awesome. The whole picture is a feast for the eyes. I hope it shows they had a nice Christmas though.
ردحذفChel
Prince Albert is the only one who is dressed excentric and he looks good and happy. Princess Charlene,s hairstyle is excentric also, but her smile is from the heard.
ردحذفThey were having a good time with their love ones, and i love Albert's outfit, and pretty sure his kids love it too.
ردحذفOhhhhhhhhhhh
ردحذفYou said you had no comment...
حذف@4:23 Must be mad that we ignored her. I wanted to say "Thank God!" when she said she had no comment, but it would have been giving her attention.
حذفYou are trolling everywhere and in any possibile language.
حذفPity, you are not good at French either.
Attention seeking, nothing more.
Sorry for you.
Getting a life?
My best wishes for the New Year to you too.
Je me fiche de leur look.
ردحذفLa seule chose qui m intéresse sur ces photos ,c est la réunion de certains membres de cette famille.
Il me semble qu Ils sont heureux d être ensemble.
I love these images ! Albert like fathers everywhere, in their Christmas hats and slippers, kicking back enjoying the day with family ! Lovely ! Happy New Year to them ! Ana
ردحذفBeautiful images. It is lovely to see a family who genuinely love and care about each other. Prince Albert seems to be a loving husband, father, brother and uncle.
ردحذفNice family photo! I love Stephanie’s Christmas sweater! Any idea where it is from? I find it so difficult to find a nice looking, good quality Christmas sweater.
