If Antoine Dupont is a huge star in France, he is also internationally and all Rugby lovers know his name. This summer, the Frenchman made the rather crazy bet of joining the French rugby sevens team to participate in the Paris 204 Olympic Games and like most of the things he tries, the rugby player, who celebrated his 28 years in a very chic place, shone. The Stade Toulouse scrum half left with the gold medal around his neck and his performances won over everyone. This Sunday, November 24, at the World Rugby Awards, which were held at the Salle des Étoiles in Monaco, he was voted best 7s player in the world.
A new consecration for the man who was suspected of doping by a big name in French sport recently, who achieved an unprecedented double after his title of player of the year in rugby 15 in 2021. An evening at which Monegasque celebrities were invited, like Charlene of Monaco, who was present for this wonderful event. It must be said that Albert of Monaco's wife is certainly not indifferent to rugby since in her country of origin, South Africa, it is one of the most popular sports. If the father of her twins Gabriella and Jacques (9 years old) did not go there, the 46-year-old former swimmer was radiant on the red carpet at the Salle des Étoiles (all photos can be found in the slideshow).

For the occasion, the one we saw very complicit with her sister-in-law Stéphanie during the Monegasque national holiday last week looked particularly beautiful. Dressed in a superb, long black dress, she wore a sparkly bustier with the most beautiful effect. On the red carpet, Charlene of Monaco posed alongside her brother, Gareth Wittstock, Alan Gilpin, the general director of World Rugby and Jonathan Webb, former English rugby player, now vice-president of World Rugby.
A great evening for Charlene from Monaco who was able to attend Antoine Dupont's triumph at the World Rugby Awards.
