Their mother is renowned for her impeccable sense of style so it’s no wonder that Prince Jacques and Princess Gabriella looked so adorable as they stepped out with parents Princess Charlene and Prince Albert II of Monaco.

The gorgeous three-year-old twins were dressed head to toe in sweet traditional outfits as they attended the Monaco annual picnic in their hometown on Friday, which is attended by around 1,000 residents every year.

Princess Charlene, 40, looked stunning in a pair of tight-fitting white jeans, paired with a demure silk blouse in a flattering shade of grey and a pair of nude high heeled stilettos for the family day out at Princess Antoinette Park.

While her husband, the reigning Monégasque monarch, looked relaxed in brown smart trousers and a slightly darker brown blazer, with his smart white shirt unbuttoned at the neck, grasping his doting daughter’s hand as the family arrived at the event.

The annual event, which is held to celebrate the end of summer, is organised by the City Council of Monaco and features folk dancing, flowers, a Mass and barbecues.

However all eyes were on the young prince and princess as they held on to one another and clapped along with the music as they joined crowds of onlookers to watch the traditional performances.

Described as ‘the most joyous official event of the year’ the entire national population of Monaco, which totals around 30,000 people, is sent an invitation.

Former South African Olympic swimmer Charlene and Albert first met in 2000 and tied the knot in 2011, welcoming their twins in December 2014.
