Prince Albert of Monaco in Tokyo watched a swimming competition without his wife Charlene, a former Olympic swimmer
On Tuesday, Prince Albert of Monaco once again appeared in public without Princess Charlene, who was unable to join her husband at the Tokyo Olympics in watching a sport she once participated in.
On the fourth day of the Olympics, Prince Albert, 63, casually dressed in a striped polo shirt and navy shorts, showed up at the Tokyo Aquatics Center to watch the swimming competition.
A little later, in a more official edition in a suit, Prince Albert also attended the medal ceremony for the 100-meter breaststroke contestants.
The Principality of Monaco is represented at the Olympic Games by a six-member team of athletes competing in five different disciplines - athletics, swimming, judo, rowing, and table tennis.
Watching one of the swimming races, Prince Albert put a VR set on his head, a technology that allows spectators to see information such as the name of the swimmer in the bar, passing time, and whether the swimmer is close to breaking the world record.
His wife, 43-year-old Princess Charlene, who currently lives in South Africa and has not been seen in Monaco since January, shared a video of their romantic wedding songs on Instagram yesterday.
The former Olympian, who has six-year-old twins Jacques and Gabriella with Prince Albert, shared a video with which she wrote: ‘My dear friend Alouise, thank you for remembering our wedding song. Thank you from the bottom of my heart '.

‘My Hele Hart’ is an African song performed at the royal wedding of Albert and Charlene in 2011, and it seems that with the release of this video Charlene sent a message to her husband with whom she has not been seen in public for more than half a year.
Charlene recently explained in an interview with Channel24 that she stayed in South Africa due to multiple, complicated surgical procedures, after she got an ear, nose, and throat infection in May while visiting her home country on her own.
In the aforementioned interview, Charlene talked about how much she misses her husband and children.
‘It was extremely difficult for me when the medical team pointed out to me that I could not return home on my 10th wedding anniversary. Without his love and support, I would not have been able to go through this painful period, 'said Princess Charlene, who cannot fly by plane due to health complications.
