Charlene van Monaco has been staying in South Africa, her home country, for several months. Officially to recover from the infection she contracted. She is said to have undergone surgery last month, but few details are known about that. It would be the reason for her longer stay in South Africa, because she is not allowed to fly. The international press had revived some speculation about the couple’s breakup, fueled by her lengthy absence from Monaco. For example, the ten-year marriage of the prince couple could not be celebrated because the princess was staying in South Africa.
