Prince Albert II and Princess Charlene Appeal for Wildfire Victims Across Europe

Prince Albert II Princess Charlene European wildfires royal statement climate action

Prince Albert II and Princess Charlene of Monaco issued a joint Instagram statement expressing solidarity with people affected by the severe wildfires raging in France, Spain and the United Kingdom. The royals noted that fires in Spain have already burnt more than twice the usual annual area, while France sees more than five times the typical burned surface.

In the message they praised firefighters and rescue services for protecting residents and threatened habitats, and called for stronger climate action, saying the blazes are partly linked to climate disturbances. The statement came as the couple, who celebrated their 15th wedding anniversary on 1 July 2026 and recently attended Monaco’s traditional Red‑Cross Ball, temporarily paused their summer holiday to address the crisis.
