Charles Leclerc engaged to long-time partner Alexandra Saint Mleux

Ferrari driver Charles Leclerc has got engaged to his partner Alexandra Saint Mleux. The Scuderia stalwart confirmed the engagement via a post on Instagram.

"Mr(squared) and Mrs Leclerc," the caption read alongside photos of the two and their paddock-famous dog that they share together, Leo Leclerc.

The couple were first spotted in public in July 2023 at Wimbledon. Since then, the two have become a fan-favourite couple in the paddock, with Saint Mleux often being seen supporting her now-fiance. 

A number of drivers have celebrated the news in the comments, including McLaren's Oscar Piastri and Leclerc's former team-mate at Ferrari, Carlos Sainz. 

Prior to being with the Ferrari driver, Saint Mleux kept her life very private. But since stepping into the public eye alongside the Monégasque, she has gained 2.9 million followers on Instagram and 1.9 million on TikTok. She's worked with huge brands, including Hailey Bieber's Rhode brand, a cosmetics company. 

Born in France, she now lives in Monaco with Leclerc, who has lived in Monaco his whole life. 

The post confirming their engagement has received 1.4 million likes and over 36,700 comments in just 40 minutes. Motorsport.com staff send the coupe their best wishes.
