Your stay in South Africa has been taking much longer than planned. An intervention on the jaw is apparently the reason. Now Princess Charlène of Monaco had another operation there.
Princess Charlène of Monaco, who was stuck in South Africa after an ear, nose and throat infection, had an operation.
The intervention on Friday went well, said her husband, Prince Albert II, according to a press release. “Princess Charlène is recovering and we think of her with tenderness.”
The Princely House had previously announced that the operation would take four hours and be performed under general anesthesia. Prince Albert II and the twins Gabriella and Jacques will therefore come to her during the recovery period.
At the beginning of the year Charlène traveled to the country on the southern tip of Africa to support the fight against rhino poaching. What at first seemed like a visit to her home country, far from Monaco, turned out to be more and more like months of permanent residence.
Charlène recently reported to South African radio station 702 that an oral surgery performed prior to her trip had delayed her return. The inflammation is likely to prolong her stay even further, as she cannot compensate for ear pressure when flying at high altitude. She indicated the end of October as the return date. The Princely House did not specify what the operation on Friday was about.
The princess’s long-term stay in South Africa had fueled speculation on social media about a possible separation of the couple and a possible return of the princess to her old home. Charlène (43), on the other hand, repeatedly protested in interviews how much she missed her husband and, above all, the children with whom she spoke on video every day.
Charlène had met Albert, 20 years her senior, in a swimming competition in 2000, having previously played for the South African national team at the 2000 Olympic Games.
