Maybe the funeral of the Zulu King counted as essential work? It's not impossible to travel just not advised, especially if she planned to stay for an extended amount of time and work with the rhino charity.

It is a long time to spend separated from her family though, especially with her brother in Monaco.

About the investment of the princess Charlene for the wildlife

You know anything about the laws of the travel in France and Monaco to other countries, it is not like in United Kingdom or in USA

In France,travel to South Africa is not recommended but not prohibited, PCR testsonly need to be negative, no matter the lenght of the travel
Princess Charlene has a diplomatic passport like all the other royal families or diplomat people she can go to South Africa whenever she wants these photos were perhaps taken when she went to SA for the king"s Zulu funeral, the photos are now published and even she travelled again the last week to SA for this work , she could fly to her native country

Of course, you don't remember the photo of all the family in Monaco for Easter on april 3th

Since february 2006, some persons , always the same people are criticing without reason and also are dreaming of the end of their wedding

??? Wouldn't her husband and children be more important than one of her brothers (the other one is living in South Africa if I'm not mistaken)?

The Instagram/Facebook posts mention “a recent trip” which leads me to believe that the Princess is now back in Monaco. I think this trip may have coincided with her attendance of the funeral of the Zulu King.

It is such a sad reality that these magnificent animals must be dehorned to protect them from being poached - just because some think the horns (it is hair only) contain an aphrodisiac.

It is good to see P Charlene getting involved in such a worthy cause - she is now involved in the conservation of rhino and lions.

Maybe that came out wrong. I took her children and husband being in Monaco for granted and was making a bad quip about her brother being in Monaco and she isn't.

Yeah, I think they ought to make Gareth an honorary Prince as he seems to love carrying out public duties in Monaco far more than his sister does LOL! He was even presenting the awards during Monaco fashion week just the other day, another event under the patronage of his sister that she never shows for. If she is in Monaco right now why was he doing this and not Charlene? I can't think of any other royal/princely family where the married in royal is replaced by one of their own relatives so often at public events in this way, it's frankly bizarre.

Its a truly wonderful cause .

Florestane · #**148** 05-20-2021, 04:03 PM

It's a great cause for the Princess and her Foundation.

Don't like the hair - preferred the original look at Christmas to this "jarhead" look - she reminds me of Gibbs in NCIS.

The Princess clearly has a deep love from her homeland and its a really good cause plus Princess Grace had a similar affinity for the USA and Ireland.

But Grace was a busy Princess in Monaco and did not leave all the work to her husband, as Charlene mostly does.

Well done Princess Charlene

https://royalcentral.co.uk/europe/mo...vation-160390/

Some people here has no memory , luckily internet did not exist at the time of Princess Grace, she travelled all the times, a lot in USA and after in Ireland where she bought a little house, once time in London for shopping, once time for Paris thoughout the month september to attend the fashion week while her children were at school at Monaco, during the year 1976 1977; she stayed all the year in Paris and returned to Monaco every 15 days at Monaco, Caroline was enrolled in Sciences Po and Stephanie at the school 'Dames de Saint Maur' there were at this time rumors of divorce between Grace and Rainier in the médias, at the end of her life, she was rarely at Monaco, she gave poetry recitals everywhere in the world

Don't forget the scandale when Grace wanted to return to make cinema with Alfred Hitchcock, I don't want imagine Charlene returning to the swimming races!!!! Oh my God !!!

You are forgetting when Charlene went to Georgia for her foundation last september , in Italia to launch the new schools that her foundation helped, when Charlene went to Califormia to help with her foundation orphelans villages ,

As all the people who are living far from their native country and their family, she loves her country and is helping it . it is not a shame, Grace helped her country in helping young actors

I advice you to read the princess Charlene of Monaco foundation South Africa face book page, you will see that she is doing a lot for desavantaged children and people and she is wright and she is supporting by her husband other things are not our business ,

But wouldn’t you like to see her more present at more events in the principality?

Blog Real · #**154** 05-21-2021, 04:12 PM

Prince Albert II's wife is currently suffering from an ENT infection, according to a press release from the Prince's Palace. Princess Charlene, who was then traveling to South Africa, will therefore not be able to travel this weekend, nor attend the traditional Monegasque Grand Prix.

Quote:

"While traveling on the African continent as part of a wildlife conservation mission, HSH Princess Charlène suffers from an ENT infection that does not allow her to travel. Unfortunately, she will not be able to attend the Monaco Formula 1 Grand Prix. HSH Princess Charlène wishes the best to the Automobile Club of Monaco, organizer of the event, as well as to the drivers and teams involved in this great automobile competition. "

Having to stay on in S. Africa, I'm sure she's devastated LOL!

W.Y.CII · #**157** 05-22-2021, 12:16 AM

LOL for what? She has to stay in SA and can't stay with her family.

Tempted to make a joke about getting a 'Rhino virus', but i'll behave

That said, she did seem to enjoy the F1 events in Monaco in recent years and always seemed very relaxed when visiting the drivers and race, so i could imagine in other circumstances she would have returned to Monaco for it despite her work in Africa, but with Covid still going strong imo it's wise not to take any chances...

I agree, she always did seem to like the GP but something seems wrong overall. She hasn't done anything in Monaco for months and now is missing the GP which she never does and she wasn't at the MC Masters tennis either which was another notable miss. She may well have an infection but the absences are constant right now.

Are the twins with her in South Africa? I can’t imagine they are because of schooling. In which case, she must want to get back to Monaco ASAP.
