For the occasion, Alexandre wore a traditional black tuxedo that he paired with a white button-up. In the case of Longoria, she wore a brown and beaded gown that she accessorized with matching heels and a beaded necklace.
Hosted in Monaco, the gala hosted all manner of celebrities and notorious people based in Monaco, including the attendance of key members of the Grimaldi family.
Princess Stephanie was one of the honorees of the evening, arriving in Monaco alongside her son Louis Ducruet and his wife Marie Ducret, her nephew Alexandre, and her daughter, Camille Gottlieb.

His mother, Nicole Coste, with whom Albert maintained a romantic relationship for five years, revealed that Princess Stephanie played a key role in Alexandre's life, becoming his godmother and welcoming him into her life and the life that she built with her daughters.
At the gala, the Grimaldi family was welcomed by Longoria, who hosted the Global Grift Foundation Gala for the first time in Monaco. Guests were treated to multiple appearances from celebrities and various sources of entertainment, including Daddy Yankee and a performance by the French singer Vitaa.

Stephanie of Monaco received a special honor due to her work with Fight AIDS Monaco, one of the first organizations that was developed to improve the lives of people living with HIV diagnoses.
Longoria was accompanied by her husband, Jose Baston, with the two seated alongside Stephanie and her daughter Camille, who served a special role throughout the evening, with her company, Be Safe Monaco, responsible for providing the transportation for the evening. She founded the company some years ago in hopes of curbing drunk driving in Monaco, with the enterprise providing free shuttle transportation throughout the municipality.
The Global Gift Foundation was founded in 2013 by Maria Bravo, a Spanish actress, businesswoman, and philanthropist, to create a positive impact in the lives of vulnerable kids, women, and families.
