He sure is tireless, he seems to be everywhere and always very active at representing Monaco (which ofcourse is his job, but imo he goes above and beyond)

That's my recurring thought as well Nevertheless I was surprised to see him at the men's final in Wimbledon today, July 16:

The final in Wimbledone is not a work , he is only attending the men's final
With a privat jet, it is easy for him to arrive just before the match and come back at home the evening

He is a great defender of the environment but taking the plane so many times, it is not good for the environment.

Regarding Prince Albert being tireless, I noticed that years ago and commented thus, ITA. His parents, grandparents, and ancestors would be proud of him, he's a great representative of Monaco. He's the epitome of "duty above all else". "
