Princess Charlène has been back in Monaco for a few weeks and in recent days she has shown herself again with her husband Prince Albert and the children. The happiness does not splash from her face. The queen does not even attempt to smile anymore and seems to have already given up hope that the public still wants to believe in the fairy tale.
No wonder: according to the generally well-established French magazine Voici, her return to Monaco is only temporary. The magazine has details of a secret agreement that mutual advisers have been working on in recent months that will allow Charlène’s exit from Monte Carlo.
Facetime
A year ago, the misery became clear to the outside world when the queen left for a funeral of a befriended chieftain in South Africa and then made no move to return to her family for months. She managed to extend this stay until the autumn with treatments against all kinds of inflammation in the airways.
There was only contact with the children via Facetime, who also visited her there with their father for only a few days in months. When she finally returned to Monaco, she left the principality again after a week to continue treatment in the Swiss Alps for months.

New phase
Charlène returned again, but now there is the news about that secret contract that heralds a new phase in their marriage.
The details: Charlène will receive an allowance of twelve million euros per year, she will have her own staff and will move to Geneva. She undertakes to come to Monaco from time to time for representative duties such as on the National Day. That will not be an undivided pleasure for anyone. Also last week, at the start of Formula E (racing with electric cars, ed.)none of the photographers present were able to detect and capture a smile on her face.
‘Caroline Clause’
There is no official divorce. But their children, Albert’s successor Prince Jacques and his twin sister Gabriella (7), continue to go to school in Monaco and therefore with their father. They can spend holidays with mom. Insiders suspect that the prince is anticipating a possible divorce in the future. If he takes care of the children now, he will almost certainly be assigned them automatically. For Charlène there seems to be hardly any other option but to agree to this.
It is remarkable that a ‘Caroline clause’ would also be included in the contract. It is generally known that Princess Caroline, in the eyes of many the real successor of her illustrious mother Princess Gracia, and Charlène are not friends.
Not suitable
It is whispered that Caroline (65) never wants to see Charlène again. Caroline had been making it difficult for her, in her eyes, totally unfit sister-in-law within the palace for years. Albert found himself in a difficult position between the two most important women in his life, but with this ‘solution’ that Caroline would laud, she lives up to her reputation as a strong woman at court.
Details about the agreement that would be ratified one of these days, which will open the road to Geneva for Charlene, will not be known any time soon. The first clause is that parties will remain silent. Not only about the content, but also about its existence.
