It also works in Wittstock’s favor that the Monaco royal wedding has significantly less hype and public interest surrounding it. Sure, she hasn’t been perfect and there are… More »
Prince Albert of Monaco first saw Charlene Wittstock in 2000 when she was partipating in a swim competition in Monaco. Just like Kate Middleton’s see-through dress that first wowed Prince William, Wittstock’s swimwear impressed Prince Albert and he took the South African former Olympian out.
