Stephanie’s brother Prince Albert announced the baby’s arrival on Tuesday at the Auditorium Rainier III, where he was presenting diplomas during the Monegasque Red Cross graduation ceremony. According to Monaco-Matin, Albert said, “My nephew Louis Ducruet and his wife Marie have the joy of being parents of a little girl.” Louis and Marie, who tied the knot in 2019, announced last November that they were expecting their first child. Alongside the announcement, Louis wrote: “An adventure is about to begin ♥️.”
