Sainte Devote Celebration: 2007 - 2023

[moby]

Love the photo of the twins hugging, I hope they continue to look that loving with each other.

People on social media are already commenting on how Gabriella looks so much like Princess Grace. I think she definitely looks the most like her grandmother out of all the grandkids. I suppose the only good thing about being born decades after the death of their grandmother is that they can pretty much live their lives out of her shadow now.

The little girl in grey near Charlene and Albert is the granddaughter of Christian de Massy, I don't recall her name, she is the daughter of her daughter, she has a twin brother , there are photos of her holding the hands of Jacques and Gabriella at the national fest

I am attending since a lot of years this ceremony of the burning of the cannot and I can see that there is more and more people attending this religious event, people of Monaco and also tourists, who are coming to attend this event , I recall when Albert was single, there was not a lot of people now we have to come two heours nefore the beginning to have a good place .

The Sainte Devote celebrations is the seconf national event and for the people of Monaco, it is very important

Here is the video of the sainte Dévote ceremony

Is there any news on the events that take place this weekend? Will it be broadcast live as in previous years?

Correct, but the celebrations already start on January 26 early evening with the arrival of the boat, a procession and the burning of the boat. On January 27, there's the mass and another procession.

So, it was only Jacques this time? I assume Gabriella was ill?!

I also noticed Prince Alberts 1st cousin ,Baroness Elisabeth-Anne de Massy and her daughter Mélanie de Massy standing beside Princess Charlene.

Gosh, how self assured does Jaques look waving to the crowd and shaking hands? Very impressive for a 4 year old I must say. Missed Gabriella but maybe we will see her on the balcony tomorrow.

Nice to see Jacques with his parents. I hope so too that we'll see Gabriella at tomorrow's celebrations, it felt a bit empty just seeing Jacques, as adorable as he is!

He's really something isn't he? I wish Grace and Rainier could see him!

Charlene looks gorgeous.

How cute is little P Jacques, blowing kisses and shaking hands? I assume P Gabriella was maybe unwell. Let’s hope to see her tomorrow.

I hope we will have many more photos, thus far there are fewer than in previous years.

If you are an Instagram person there are quite a few on there.

Probably still a bit early for lots of photos - some of newspapers and magazines might pick up a few over the next couple of days which will probably be of sharper and better quality.

Miss seeing Gabriella, hope she is there tomorrow.

Jacque was so cute and pretty comfortable with the crowds

Charlene looked quite lovely.
