Princess Charlene was joined by her brother for a heartfelt evening as she supported a cause close to her heart.
The Monegasque royal, 48, posed for pictures alongside her younger sibling, Gareth Wittstock, as the pair attended the Pink Ribbon Monaco Gala at the Hôtel de Paris Monte-Carlo.
Charlene was dressed elegantly in an all-white Emporio Armani suit with black heels and diamond drop earrings, while businessman Gareth donned a tuxedo with a pink bow tie.
During the ceremony, the pair helped to illuminate the Place du Casino in pink to mark the start of "Pink October" for Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
Since 2024, Princess Charlene has been Honorary President of Pink Ribbon Monaco, which raises awareness and funds for female cancers research and prevention. The Monagesque palace confirmed that 24 buildings within the Principality will also be lit up in pink throughout the month.
Charlene shares a close bond with Gareth, who moved to Monaco from South Africa following his sister’s marriage to Prince Albert in 2011. The computer scientist is now a businessman and serves as Secretary General of the Princess Charlene of Monaco Foundation. The charity, which promotes water safety to prevent drowning in young children, was founded by former Olympic swimmer Charlene in 2012.
Gareth shares two daughters, Kaia Rose and Bodhi, with his wife, Roisin Galvin, who have been pictured at public events with their royal cousins and twins, Prince Jacques and Princess Gabriella.
Historic state visit
Charlene's outing with her brother comes after she and Prince Albert hosted Italy's President Sergio Mattarella for a spectacular state dinner in the throne room at the Princely Palace in Monaco.
The princess wowed in a floor-length blush pink embellished one-shoulder gown by Elie Saab for the banquet and swept her hair up into an updo with loose tendrils.
Prince Albert addressed the historic visit in his speech, saying: "It is indeed the first time that we have had the pleasure of receiving a President of the Italian Republic for a state visit to the Principality. This first therefore makes up for something that was missing, and I am happy to be able to do so with you."
