Love, speed, and a secret Monaco wedding — Ferrari’s golden boy Charles Leclerc has quietly said ‘I do,’ and there’s a surprising Aussie twist.
The whispers have been confirmed: Formula 1 star Charles Leclerc is officially off the market. Just days before the high-octane Melbourne Grand Prix, the Ferrari driver exchanged vows with his long-time girlfriend, Alexandra Saint Mleux, in a private civil ceremony held in Monaco — his beloved hometown.
The bride dazzled in what she called her “absolute dream dress” — a stunning off-the-shoulder lace gown created by Australian couture designer Paolo Sebastian. The masterpiece reportedly shimmered with diamond embellishments worth over a million dollars, blending Monaco glamour with Australian artistry. (And here's where it gets interesting — few fans knew the emotional meaning behind her choice of designer.)
The couple shared glimpses of their intimate celebration online, melting hearts everywhere. Their loyal dog, Leo, stole the spotlight in the couple’s photos, serving as both witness and star of the show. “Can’t wait to marry all over again next year,” Alexandra teased on social media, hinting that round two of their celebrations — a larger event with loved ones — is already in the works.
Leclerc echoed the sentiment with a heartfelt message: “A day we’ll forever remember. Part one is done, and part two will be next year with all our close ones.”
But the story doesn’t stop there. Over the weekend, sharp-eyed fans in Monaco speculated about a possible secret wedding when the couple was seen cruising in a 1957 Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa — a jaw-droppingly rare model valued at around $17 million. With only a little over 30 ever built, it was a fittingly luxurious way to celebrate their union. (Here’s the part most people miss — this wasn’t just a joyride; it was a nod to Leclerc’s passion for vintage Ferraris and his connection to Monaco’s racing history.)
The ceremony itself was understated yet elegant, attended only by close family and friends. Leclerc chose an ivory suit for the day, balancing simplicity with timeless sophistication, while Alexandra sparkled in diamonds that mirrored the Riviera sunlight.
Their romance has always had a private, grounded charm — even their engagement reflected that. Back in November, Leclerc proposed with the help of their beloved sausage dog, whose tiny collar carried the message, “Daddy wants to marry you.” Fans couldn’t get enough of the sweet, personal touch.
Now, as Charles gears up for the first race of the F1 season in Melbourne, it seems the young driver has already taken his biggest victory — in love.
But here’s a question for fans: Should F1 stars keep their personal lives completely private, or do moments like this help humanize them beyond the racetrack? Drop your thoughts below — the debate might surprise you.
