Princess Charlene of Monaco made headlines when it was revealed she was admitted to a Swiss luxury clinic for “profound general fatigue” last November. However, despite leaving the clinic last month, the princess has still not returned to royal life.
Princess Charlene’s Stay At Pricey Health Clinic

Prince Albert: ‘This Has Nothing To Do With Our Relationship’
The palace is also denying any rumors of a rift between Charlene and her husband, Prince Albert. The two wed in 2011 and share twins Gabriella and Jacques. Albert himself spoke out about the rumors, saying, “I’m probably going to say this several times, but this has nothing to do with our relationship. I want to make that very clear. These are not problems within our relationship; not with the relationship between a husband and wife. It’s of a different nature.”

While the royals are trying to present a united front, rumors are still swirling about Charlene and Albert’s marriage, from infidelity to stories of the couple living apart even before the princess’ time in South Africa. Only time will tell if Charlene will ever return to royal life alongside her husband.
