Princess Charlene of Monaco has made a major announcement about a previously planned international trip. Rather than traveling to Japan with husband Prince Albert, and their 10-year-old twins, Princess Gabriella and Prince Jacques, Charlene has shared a press release revealing why she's been forced to "drop out" of the trip.

Per a press release from Monaco's Royal Family, "H.S.H. Prince Albert Il will travel to Japan on the occasion of Monaco's National Day, celebrated on June 28, 2025, as part of the World Expo 2025 Osaka Kansai." The press release further explained that Albert would instead be accompanied by his sister, Princess Stéphanie, her three children—Louis Ducruet, Pauline Ducruet, and Camille Gottlieb, as well as Louis's wife, Marie Ducruet.
