Princess Charlene of Monaco Shares Rare Snaps of 5-Year-Old Twins: ‘So Proud’

Princess Charlene is one lucky mom. And (lucky us as well) the Princess of Monaco is now giving followers a rare look at her sweet family of four.

Last Sunday, the 42-year-old royal shared new family photos of her husband, Prince Albert, with their 5-year-old twins, Princess Gabriella and Prince Jacques. In the first pic, Albert is standing behind a chair while Jacques sits and smiles in front of his dad. “So proud,” she captioned the Instagram.

The second photo features the 62-year-old royal looking official in uniform while his daughter hides (and giggles) behind him.

Charlene also shared a third post, including a solo shot of her son (and OMG those eyes).

This isn’t the first photo of the royal siblings we’ve seen recently. In fact, back in September, Prince Albert and Princess Charlene shared a rare image of the 5-year-old twins on the palace’s official Facebook page. The candid pic was taken on their first day of school and features Princess Gabriella fixing Prince Jacques’s hair before they head inside the classroom.

Jacques and Gabriella are the only children of the royal couple. Prince Jacques is first in the line of succession, despite the fact that he’s younger than his sister. (The Monegasque throne hasn’t updated its gender rules like the British royals, who amended the paradigm so people like Princess Charlotte can maintain their ranking regardless of any little brothers.)

These photos are giving us some major George and Charlotte vibes.
