Nicole also included a solo portrait and a photo of Alexandre’s red and white birthday cake.
Nicole simply captioned the collection of images, “Happy birthday Alexandre,” with a heart emoji.
This is not the first time Prince Albert, 65, attended a birthday celebration for his firstborn son. The best known was two years ago when he joined a party at Monaco nightclub Jimmy’z for Alexandre’s 18th birthday.
Also seated at the table wasJazmin Grace Grimaldi, Alexandre’s half-sister. Her parents are Prince Albert and American Tamara Rotolo.
Jazmin, 31, also shared a sweet tribute to her brother on Instagram to celebrate the milestone.
Around the centerpiece of a solo snap of Alexandre attending Pharrell Williams' first show for Louis Vuitton at Paris Fashion Week earlier this year were a number of photos showing the pair throughout the years. One shows them focused on video games, while another is from a pool day.
Two photos feature Prince Albert — one when Alexandre was a young boy and another more recent reunion.

Alexandrerecently spokewith French magazinePoint de Vuein a new interview, which included his relationship with his father and siblings.
Alexandre said Jazmin “is my big sister, and I love her like I love my two big brothers on my mother’s side. We all get along very well, and Jazmin is also very close to one of my two brothers with whom she shares the same birthday. We’ve a good relationship despite the fact that we live in distant countries.”
As for Prince Jacques and Princess Gabriella, Alexandre said he shares “tenderness” with the twins — joking, “Not their toys. That’s for sure given our age difference.”

Alexandre also spoke about using the last name Grimaldi with his father’s encouragement.
“My father’s name is Grimaldi. It makes sense that I bear his name. I would have been called Dochomel if my father had been Mr. Dochomel!” Alexandre said. “Besides, I never called myself Coste or Coste-Grimaldi. On no ID, at school or on my diplomas. Those who call me that have a malicious attitude.”
Alexandre said, “One thing is certain: Today, I am a happy man being open and honest with you.”
