A tanned and toned lady sits on the beach, smiling while she watches a group of guys punt a ball round in the sand. It's an everyday image – the only difference is that the woman in the bikini and tattoos is Princess Stephanie of Monaco, and one of the footballers is her ex-husband, Daniel Ducruet. The sporty princess, whose colourful love life frequently makes the headlines, looked relaxed in her favourite environment, chatting amicably with the father of two of her three children in between swimming and sunbathing sessions at a luxury resort in Mauritius.
Apart from being a haven of peace and tranquillity, the paradise island offers gorgeous natural surroundings and a wealth of unforgettable experiences - such as walking on the seabed - ideal for adventurous types like Stephanie.
Although she split up with Daniel nearly a decade ago, they have recently been spotted enjoying family holidays and days out together, usually with their children – 13-year-old Louis and 11-year-old Pauline - and their respective new partners.
Stephanie, who has just turned 41, is now dating a 27-year-old barman called Mathieu: the loved-up twosome were enjoying the delights of the Thai island of Phuket earlier this week.
