Charlene Wittstock and Albert of Monaco are not close to divorce , as rumors have been saying for some time. They are already separate in fact, but they try to keep up appearances.
This was revealed by a friend of the royal couple of the principality of Monaco, Vera Dillier, to the weekly Oggi.
“In the Palazzo it is no secret that they are separated - he said -. A close relationship or great love never existed between them. On the Rocca it is said that Charlene will occasionally appear at some public event, to prove that all is well. In short, we try to save appearances ".
"At those levels there is no divorce - he added - There are only a few exceptions, such as Prince Charles with Diana ... So the prince makes Roc Agel's residence available to him and the matter is closed for him".
The princess, who recently had health problems, "is so bad at court that she ended up in depression" because "being a princess or a queen is not fun, but a very hard job, she could no longer bear her role".
As for their two children, the twins Gabriella and Jacques, “in these environments, especially if they are heirs to the throne, the children remain with their father. All time. Even in a court battle, Charlene couldn't have them. Alberto is the sovereign and, following the law of the house as well as the prenuptial contract, the children would still remain with him. This Charlene knew from the start. This is the reason why an agreement was reached on Roc Agel, which is so close to Monaco ”.
The marriage between the 44-year-old former swimmer and the twenty-year-older prince dates back to 2011. Seven years ago, the children Jacques and Gabriella were born.
