Top Billing had the pleasure of an exclusive interview with our South African Princess-to-be of Monaco, Charlene Wittstock, during the Monaco Grand Prix . The interview was done by Top Billing presenter Jo-Ann Strauss who says, “Having known Charlene for a few years, it felt like catching up with a friend who is going on a life-changing journey. She is an absolute embodiment of elegance – she hails from Benoni – the same town that gave us Charlize Theron – someone Charlene admires. There must be something in the water in Benoni! Charlene invited me into the Prince’s Palace in Monaco and we sat in one of the most elegant rooms overlooking the courtyard where she and her fiancé, HSH Prince Albert will share their vows in a few short weeks. It was quite an experience and a privilege to be in the Palace, in the private area usually reserved for Heads of State. The wonderful thing about Charlene is that she is a wonderful, down-to-earth person who has won the hearts of the Monegasque Principality, but she’s so proudly South African. We chatted about braai’s, rugby and the open spaces of our country which she loves!”
