Charles Leclerc has been a Formula 1 driver since 2018. Although his adventure began in Switzerland, with Sauber, it was with Ferrari that the prodigy became one of the best in his sport. At a basketball match in November 2023, he introduced his new girlfriend.

A heart no longer up for grabs
Like his childhood friend Jules Bianchi, Charles Leclerc started karting at an early age, on the Brignoles circuit in the south of France. Gradually, he climbed the ranks to become the benchmark driver for Ferrari, one of the most legendary teams in the history of motor sports, with 16 world titles to his name.
Charles Leclerc's private life has always been closely monitored by the media, especially in France, where the 26-year-old is a Monegasque citizen. He first formed an iconic couple on social networks with Charlotte Siné, the daughter of Emmanuel Siné, who is the general manager of One Monte Carlo, Monaco's sea bathing company. This is Monaco's oldest and most prestigious entertainment company.
But the couple split up in December 2022 after a series of tensions. Prior to this high-profile relationship, he had briefly been in a relationship with Giada Gianni, from 2015 to 2019. But the man with 5 F1 victories had explained his choice to concentrate primarily on his career. Over the weekend of 26 May 2023, Charles Leclerc was seen with Alexandra Saint Mleux, his new girlfriend. The 21-year-old's presence didn't exactly bring Leclerc luck, as he only finished sixth on his home turf. In 2021, at the same venue, he was criticized and suspected of having deliberately caused an accident.
Who is Charles Leclerc's new partner?
Unlike with his previous relationships, Charles Leclerc wished to maintain a certain anonymity and has made few public appearances with Alexandra Saint Mleux. Nevertheless, the two lovers are often spotted at sporting events, notably in July 2023 for the Wimbledon Grand Slam tournament, in the company of Charles Leclerc's good friend Pierre Gasly and the French driver's partner Francisca Gomes.
More recently, the Parisian woman and the Monegasque took to the stands of the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, to watch an NBA game between Lebron James' Lakers and the Portland Trail Blazers, on Sunday November 12.
On her Instagram account, Alexandra Saint Mleux plays the discretion card, since access to her profile is private. She posts photos of her travels, her lifestyle and has a secondary account dedicated to one of her passions: art. On TikTok, however, Alexandra Saint Mleux is much more active, with considerable success, as 250,000 people subscribe to her account.
The couple have probably decided to do everything in their power to keep the media spotlight to a minimum. Charles Leclerc has already paid the price for a public relationship.
On a professional level, Leclerc is set to become Lewis Hamilton's teammate in 2025. The legendary British driver will join Ferrari in return for a gargantuan cheque.The two drivers will work together at the Italian giant in a bid to bring another victory to the team, which has been waiting for its moment of glory since 2008 and Kimi Räikkönen's coronation.
