Ferrari Racer Charles Leclerc Proposes to Girlfriend Alexandra Saint Mleux — With a Little Help from Their Dog Leo!

Love is in the fast lane for Charles Leclerc! The Ferrari F1 driver just got engaged to his longtime girlfriend Alexandra Saint Mleux, and the proposal was straight out of a romantic movie — complete with roses, candles, cookies, and their adorable dachshund, Leo.

Leclerc, 28, planned the perfect surprise for Alexandra, transforming the space into a glowing red-and-gold setup filled with heart-shaped rose arrangements and candlelight. The star of the evening? Their dog Leo, who helped pop the question with a custom engraved bone tag that read, “Dad wants to marry you.” The moment was sealed with a dazzling oval-cut diamond ring that shimmered brighter than the lights at Monza.

Adding to the sweetness, Leclerc included cookies shaped like their initials at the dinner table, a small but sentimental touch that showed his attention to detail. He later posted the big reveal on Instagram with the caption “Mr² & Mrs Leclerc,” confirming what fans were hoping for — the Ferrari golden boy is officially off the market.

The news sent shockwaves through the racing community, with warm congratulations pouring in from fellow F1 drivers. Carlos Sainz commented, “Yesssss 👏👏👏,” while Lewis Hamilton added, “Congratulations to you both.” Even Oscar Piastri chimed in to celebrate the newly engaged couple.

Charles and Alexandra were first linked in 2023, after fans spotted her with him at Paris Fashion Week. Their romance became more public when Alexandra was seen supporting him at the Monaco Grand Prix, and from there, the duo became one of the sport’s most-watched couples.

Now, with a proposal as heartfelt as his driving is fast, Charles Leclerc has officially raced into a new chapter — one where love, not speed, takes the win.
