Wedding bells are a-ringing for Monaco’s Prince Albert II, as he’s rumored to marry South African swimmer, Charlene Wittstock.
According to The Times of London:
The palace has so far refused to confirm or deny rumors swirling around the 48-year-old Grimaldi and the 28-year-old former breaststroke champion, the newspaper said.
However, Wittstock was recently seen with the Archbishop of Monaco, Bernard Barsi, and also reportedly went to a jewlery store with an aide to the prince and picked out her engagement ring.
