Words of Wisdom in Monaco with Antoine Zeghdar
This young champion is radiating the joy of life. Antoine Zeghdar is genuinely happy. Born in the Principality to a Monegasque father, the now private administrator of the Princely Palace’s assets, and a French mother, the best press attaché he could possibly wish for, he admits he is very lucky indeed. And extremely courageous too, since it takes great courage to become an Olympic rugby champion. To stay at the top of his game, at the age of 26, he is also pursuing a rigorous training routine.
Appointed ambassador for the Princess Charlène of Monaco Foundation in April this year, this young athlete is determined to make a contribution promoting sports and participating in drowning prevention initiatives. At the moment, in line with his international rugby sevens career, he is training daily, getting ready for the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics. At the same time, he is pursuing his final year at the EDHEC business school for an International Bachelor of Business Administration.
Needless to say, he is very busy, but feeling strong, fulfilled and full of enthusiasm. This new ambassador will certainly be very efficient in serving the Foundation’s noble causes.

Did You Know? Ballets de Monte-Carlo: 40 years of Pirouettes!
Soaring across the stage, as if in flight, Romeo reaches his arms out towards his forbidden love: Juliet Capulet. But the much-loved tragedy takes an unexpected turn: based on the assumption that everyone is familiar with Romeo and Juliet, the Ballets de Monte-Carlo choreographer avoided paraphrasing Shakespeare’s literary masterpiece. Jean-Christophe Maillot’s re-working of Romeo and Juliet is a ballet that has widely contributed to the international reputation of Les Ballets de Monte-Carlo. And the piece is a big part of the Ballets de Monte-Carlo’s 40th anniversary program.
“Forty years already! Is it possible? The years seem to have passed faster than a grand jeté,” says Jean-Christophe Maillot, Choreographer-Director of Les Ballets de Monte-Carlo.
“I remember as if it were yesterday, my first creation for Les Ballets de Monte-Carlo. It was in December 1986, it was called ‘Les Adieux’ (‘Farewells’),” says Maillot, “with hindsight, I see that this choreography was very badly named because this experience was above all an unforgettable encounter that gave me the feeling that with these dancers, I could find my artistic reality.”
