And they looked happier than ever as they stepped out together to attend the Monaco Women's Forum awards evening.

Charlene looked stunning in a sequinned, sleeveless silver gown which she offset with dazzling statement earrings. Her chic pixie cut was perfectly styled, and she completed the look with a small clutch bag.

Prince Albert, meanwhile, looked typically dapper in a navy suit and matching tie. In one image, he can be seen placing his arm protectively around his wife's waist as she smiles for the camera.
