Alexandra Leclerc (née Saint Mleux) has clapped back at an online troll who claimed she is "nothing without" her husband, Ferrari driver Charles Leclerc.
The French art curator and influencer, who married Leclerc in a civil ceremony in Monaco in February, posted photos from the Ferrari garage during the Miami Grand Prix.
Leclerc endured a rollercoaster race on Sunday, as the Ferrari driver went from a potential podium finish to being classified eighth after a dramatic last-lap spin and post-race penalty

One commenter replied critically in a now-deleted post: "You are nothing without Leclerc."
Instead of ignoring the remark, Alexandra, 24, replied directly on Instagram with a calm and measured message:

"Actually without my husband I’m a normal girl, with my normal hobbies, my normal interests, my normal passions, who tries to be as kind as she can. That’s also what I am as his wife. And there’s nothing wrong with that that’s probably what you are too, and that’s great! We’re not all meant to be singers, doctors, actresses or athletes, and that doesn’t take away from someone’s value. Who you are as a person, how you treat others and what you choose to do with your freetime does tho! Reflect "
The response has drawn widespread praise online for its composure and positivity. Alexandra, who has over 4.4 million Instagram followers, is a regular presence in the F1 paddock supporting her husband.

While her public profile brings significant attention, it also exposes her to frequent online criticism.

Charles Leclerc has previously spoken out about privacy issues tied to their fame. In 2023, the Ferrari driver asked fans to respect his personal space after his Monaco apartment address was leaked online, resulting in people gathering outside his home.
