The crowd gathered at Prince’s Palace of Monaco on Sunday, November 19 buzzed with excitement when two-year-old twins Prince Jacques and Princess Gabriella made a special appearance. While waving from their palace balcony, Prince Albert and Princess Charlene, parents to the adorable pair, gave fans a special treat by holding up their sweet children for all to see. The royal foursome was dutifully celebrating Monaco’s National Day, a tradition which was streamed on their official Facebook page, when the cute moment occurred. All of the family members were dressed in their best, wowing onlookers with their holiday style.
As the balcony's glass doors opened during the festivities, Jacques and Gabriella’s little heads came into view. First, they doted on their dad Albert as he took salutes in the palace forecourt below from Monaco’s soldiers, the carabinieri celebrating their 200th anniversary. As the royal Prince tried to get a good peek at the ceremony, his Princess sister danced to the military band, occasionally throwing kisses and waving at the crowd. Later, the youngsters remained on their best behavior as Albert and Charlene picked them up and held them in their arms.
