Prince Albert II of Monaco met “Bridgerton” actress Simone Ashley at the 63rd Monte-Carlo Television Festival on Friday.
Hardly any other Netflix series is as popular as “Bridgerton”. After the release of the second part of the third season, actress Simone Ashley (29), who plays the role of Kate Bridgerton, appeared on Friday at the 63rd Monte-Carlo Television Festival, where Prince Albert II of Monaco (65) was also present. The two greeted each other beaming on the blue carpet.
Ashley stood out from the crowd with her light and dark red patterned leather dress; the tight cut accentuated her slim silhouette. She styled her dark hair straight and let it fall behind her shoulders. Her fingernails and toenails were painted white. She combined her extravagant dress with dark brown stilettos with high heels.
Golden Nymph for Simone Ashley, Crystal Nymph for Morgan Freeman
Prince Albert, who came without his wife Charlène (46), slipped into his usual dark blue suit with a white shirt and light blue tie. The two then took to the stage of the Grimaldi Forum during the opening ceremony of the festival, where Albert presented the actress with the International Golden Nymph for the most promising acting talent.
Other stars graced the Monte Carlo Television Festival on Friday, including “Gossip Girl” star Kelly Rutherford (55) and Oscar winner Morgan Freeman (87). The latter also received the Crystal Nymph for his life’s work from Prince Albert on stage.
