The French Magazine, Point Due Vue, reported on Monday that Prince Albert of Monaco will marry sometime in September. The prince will marry his girlfriend, South African Olympic swimmer, Charlene Wittstock.

Prince Albert has been portrayed as a playboy by the media and has reportedly dated lots of models in the past. He was first spotted with Wittstock, 30, at the opening ceremony of the 2006 Olympics.
