The couple famously wed in a lavish three-day ceremony at the Prince’s Palace in 2011, with fellow royals such as the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh, as well as model Naomi Campbell, all in attendance.

The picture, which features Prince Albert with his hand on Charlene’s back, has been liked over 4,000 times and has received many adoring comments.

One said: “The union of two people is precious, take time to look back on all the sweet moments together”, whilst another added: “My favourite Royals!!!!!!! Happy Anniversary Your Serene Highnesses!”

Prince Albert started dating Charlene, originally from South Africa but born in Zimbabwe, in 2006.

The two former Olympic athletes tied the knot in 2011 at the Prince's Palace of Monaco, where they currently live.

In 2014, they welcomed twins Prince Jacques and Princess Gabriella.

Despite Gabriella being the elder twin, Jacques is the heir-to-the-throne in Monaco due to the patriarchal rules of succession.

The royal couple have faced several negative rumours regarding their marriage.

In 2020, the Princess contracted an ear, nose and throat infection and remained in South Africa where she was receiving treatment.

She did not return to Monaco until October 2021, sparking many rumours about a potential split with Prince Albert.

In addition, Princess Charlene deleted her Instagram account in the summer of 2023.

In an interview with a South African media outlet, the princess denied the rumours about a split, calling them “draining and exhausting”.
