The couple, who wed in front of European royalty and a number of celebrity guests, are reportedly off to a rocky start.
Prince Albert, 53, who already has two illegitimate children, is facing another paternity scandal and a national French newspaper, Le Journal du Dimanche has reported that his bride tried to escape three times before the £55 million ($82 million) wedding took place.
On her third attempt her passport was reportedly confiscated by officials at Nice airport.
