A number of repetitive, speculative and insulting comments have been removed. As written in the previous mod post: Please remain respectful towards the people you discuss. We have several statements of Princess Charlene herself and we won't continue the same doubting speculations and accusations for the next three months - until the Princess's planned return to Monaco in October.

Decency demands that we are respectful towards a person who is obviously ill and little children who are seperated from her beloved mother for a long period of time. Further repetitive, speculative comments will be removed without notice. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

I think that the Princess is really ill (..) and she is in SA to be with her parents and recuperating in a familiar environment to speed up recovery. I wish her all the best and she should take her time to be better before she goes back to Monaco to be with her kids.

Daily Mail's article has a video of Charlene speaking at the interview:
Princess Charlene of Monaco says she's 'terribly frustrated' that she can't return to her children _ Daily Mail Online

All of these unfair rumours and speculation are getting very tired. It must be upsetting for the Princess to constantly see/hear that her marriage is falling apart. This latest article from”You” magazine should put the speculation to rest, explaining why she will have to stay in SA until October.

I wish her a speedy recovery so she can return home and be with her family.

We should all pray that our beloved Charlene will get well and that she will be able to return to Monaco to be with her husband and her twins.

I think Charlene is handling her current situation with a degree of grace that is enviable. I believe that many forget that the situation with Covid has made travel between countries difficult, if not impossible with many countries refusing access to shipping, even yachts, and if it were easily possible many ENT problems cause problems with balance which would make her even more ill. Obviously, changes in air pressure make travel by plane just as impossible for her.

I cannot imagine how hard this illness has been for her being parted from both her husband and children. Having suffered from pierced eardrums with all the attendant ear infections and almost unbearable pain as a child, I can certainly empathise with Charlene and, not being in your own home as well must be very uncomfortable for her and her family. With the best will in the world, being continually cosseted could drive her nuts when all she wants to do is crawl under the blankets and put her head under the pillow.

As for her children, they should be in school, shouldn't they?

Currently not. The school holidays in Monaco began on July 1, the pupils will be back at school on September 6.

P Charlene seems to be having a nice time, smiles and all. I'm sure it is painful being away from the children. The kids must miss her terribly, I believe she is a good mother.

I’ve had a bad ear infection and at the worst of it the pain was unbelievable. That level of pain along with the need for several surgeries would be my definition of hell. I’m glad Charlene seems to be physically comfortable, at least.

I feel bad for the twins, though! I’m sure they’re having a good summer with their father and caregivers, but unexpectedly being separated from their mother for such a long time must be difficult.

I will say it did seem strange to me that the twins hadn’t been with their mother in South Africa more, given that the family has the financial resources to send them on a private flight with a team of nannies, and to find them a very comfortable and safe place to stay while they’re there. But it does make more sense when the uncertainty about the recovery timeline is considered. Charlene was probably initially told she’d likely have to stay for a couple of weeks, which then turned into another couple of weeks, maybe a month, and so on, and all of a sudden it’s three or four months later and she’s still there. At least now that she’s been given a longer timeline the family can actually make plans with a degree of certainty.

I think you are right, complication may have occured unexpectedly increasing the lenght of her stay.

^^^WOW! That first picture is great! I really feel for Charlene, not only is she obviously quite ill, she also has to deal with ugly rumours. Here, the tone is respectful (thank you all for that), the hate I've seen on other sites is not even funny anymore.

A very good cause but i'm not sure what I think of the photo, maybe a bit too theatrical.

Why could she not travel back to Monaco with car? How long would it be? She could stay in hotels with bodyguards. Or is this not save for her?

checked it on google maps, about 12000+ kilometers, 170 hours, and ofcourse she'd need to have a medical team because of the health issues...

i wouldn't do it...
