Ferrari F1 star Charles Leclerc married long-term partner Alexandra Saint Mleux in a lavish ceremony in Monaco and the couple were snapped driving a £9million vintage Ferrari
F1 star Charles Leclerc married his long-term girlfriend Alexandra Saint Mleux in a private ceremony in Monaco on Saturday.
The couple were seen cruising around in a classic 1957 Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa, with Leclerc donning a suit and Saint Mleux – a fashionista who has more than 3.5million followers on Instagram – in a bridal gown. The Ferrari driver announced their commitment in a heartfelt social media post on Monday afternoon.
Alongside several videos from the ceremony, Leclerc shared on Instagram: “28/02/2026 – Civil Wedding [white love heart emoji].” In another post, Leclerc added: “A day we’ll forever remember [white love heart emoji]. Part one is done and part 2 will be next year with all of our close ones.”

The pair announced their engagement in November 2025 and have now exchanged vows before Leclerc kicks off the new Formula 1 season, which is due to start in Australia later this week.
Leclerc and Saint Mleux, who updated her surname to ‘Leclerc’ on Instagram on Sunday, were first seen together at Wimbledon in July 2023 following speculation about their relationship earlier that year. Since then, Saint Mleux has become a familiar face in the F1 paddock, and she and their dog, Leo, have won over fans.
Speaking about the influence Leo has had on his life, Leclerc previously told GQ Sports: “He’s my best friend. He’s the best. I bring him to most of the races. Last year, he did get a paddock pass, but he doesn’t need it anymore. People know him more than me. He can still get into the paddock at every race he comes to.”

The impact of Saint Mleux on Leclerc was evident when the Ferrari star announced their engagement in 2025.
“Alex is the closest person that I have, with my family. And they live the career just like we do,” he said. “Alex has done that since the very first day I met her. She’s definitely a very important part of my life, obviously, but also of my career.”
The new F1 season is set to kick off at the Australian Grand Prix in Melbourne this weekend.
Leclerc wrapped up the third and final day of pre-season testing in Bahrain last month having completed 135 laps.
“The test day was very smooth, we ran through our programme and tested all the things we planned to,” he said. “In terms of performance, it’s still difficult to understand where we really stand because teams are hiding their true form, so it’s important not to focus too much on lap times and prepare for the first race.
“We will build step by step and try to understand how to extract the maximum from our car, we have a lot of data to analyse before we arrive in Melbourne and we will see how things go once we are there.”
