I'm sure she could have raised awareness without travelling there. She might have had a vaccine, MC is usually very quick about offering, as I remember when the little piggies went around with the flu. And given who she is, she would have jumped the line. Still, we have no idea how long the effect lasts and from which variant we would be protected. So even if you had a vaccine a mask is still a good idea. Personally I have decided to wait a bit more until we know more about the vaccine, as I don't currently need to mix with loads of people. Not a vaccine sceptic, but cautious. And until there is enough for everyone, I weigh my options. I am sure this virus will be sticking around for a while in all sorts of variants, so I stick to the pre vaccine rules and get shots, whenmore data is available and they have been improved to protect against a wider range of variants.
and yeah we haven't heard anything about the kid. Maybe the reason for her trip was more about getting as far away from it than the rhinos. My guess is that they are keeping it underwraps. Pay the child and meet in private as he did with Jazmin.

so she is officially still in SA and seems to have been for weeks. www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-9647779/Princess-Charlene-Monaco-debuts-dramatic-shaved-hairstyle-South-Africa.html She looks a lot older than her years (despite all the surgery), seems to have lost quite a bit of weight and frankly looks ill. not ill as in covid ill, but ill as in cancer ill. In one of the pics she resembles an Audrey hepburn pic in Africa, when it was revealed that she had cancer. They are rehashing the baby story, but nothing new. I thought she might go to SA o destract from it, but I wonder if she went to SA for health reasons. In Mc we know word would get out. But it seems that for surgeries and IVF she relies on SA doctors. So who knows, maybe she has a health issue she likes to have privately treated. Could be a reason for her haircut too. If she turns up bald due to treatment, people may put it down to her mood rather than illness. I also met a few cancer patients that did the opposite of what most people expect. Instead of getting close to their families, they took a distance. I can understand that. You need all the strength to fight the desease. And sometimes family is not a support, but instead a burden. Instead of looking after yourself, you end up looking after them. Also her kids are pretty young and wild, so wouldn't understand what is going on. Getting treatment away from the limelight would not be a bad solution. I might be wrong, but she really looks unwell.

Apparently Albert and the kids have joined her in SA. So no school then for these 2? Different rules for the ruling class? Normally the school year in MC ends end of June, which means that at this point they would be doing a truckload of exams. Not sure how they are doing it this year. The daughters of acquaintances of mine, who used to attend the international school before going to school in GB (some not so well known boarding school, but still expensive), have returned to MC and been enrolled in some online classes. I am glad that mine finished a year before covid. I suppose these 2 will get private tuition. Or stay dumb like their parents. To my knowledge the only brains in the family are Caro and Charlotte. It is interesting to note, that there is a lack of intellectuals in pretty much all royal families. Prince Albert 1st was a scientist and his wife was very much into culture. Queen Margrete at least has artistic interests and talents, Charles seems to have given up on his. But other than that? I wonder if the twins will ever be interested in anything other then what is presented to them. Considering the amount of money that is poured into their education, there is very little return. Investmentwise the money would better be spent elsewhere. Admittedly those 2 are still young, but taking them away a month early is not a good example. neither is homeschooling abroad. I am sorry, but taking liberties because you can, is setting a bad example to those who can't. And the twins are being taught the wrong thing. By the time they are adult, their status will be less justifiable than it is now. If they want to keep their status and their money, they need to learn early on, that abusing your position, gives people reason to get rid of you. Not sure how MC will survive the pandemic without taxes on income. People have tolerated the Grimaldis because they generated income. Plus as a taxhaven they managed to sell rabbitholes for a fortune. But during the pandemic MC basic business was dead. Let's see how much survived. And even with the vaccine there is no end of it in sight. So what is the plan? Going o safari with the family and pretend we don't have a pandemic? And we go on holiday to one of the places with a more deadly variant to take home to MCs mostly elderly population? Is there anyone in this family actually using their brain? Not mentioning the risks they are taking as well as exposing their kids?

With Covid, has anyone had a regular school day though? It's been a lot of remote-learning. Charlotte is doing great with the Rencontres Philosophiques platform. We haven't seen in mainstream media glamour and brains much. It's just been a lot of white old men's fantasies of women IMO since the 90s at least and not a natural bust size in sight. Bless Charlotte. If she can bring back a more spirited, sophisticated female model before it's too late. As for that weird Aryan haircut, it's subtly too violent in my view like self-harm almost. Maybe being in SA is soothing for her, let's hope. I do always wonder where her mother is. It seems she'd be happier having her mother around more - sans enslaving her, of course, but just as a decompressing presence. Teigen I think is Philippina, so moms rather than strangers are the preferred way. Apparently Albert and the kids have joined her in SA. So no school then for these 2?

Well, Amalia of the Netherlands just finished with distinction. So she seems to have had school and did good. And she comes with a brain and a moral compass. Definetely one to watch. Wonderful to see her letter declining money, because she won't be able to give anything in return. Now that is a girl after my heart and one to watch. At that young age. Obviously her parents have enough money to maintain her and will do so, but still she seems to grasp her role and that people look to her and what she does. She is the first royal to have rejected her allowance. Beautiful handwriting too. I wonder what she will do during her gap year. I wonder how Estelle will turn out. Her parents seem very modern and capable. I think there might be another interesting woman in the making. And both of them will be queens one day.

The young lady seems to have a very level head, well wishes to her. When you step aside from the circus that warrants opinions, there are those who lead successful lives.

Hmhm, that is a pretty long trip. Are we supposed to get used to Albert as a single dad? My guess is that she is either getting some sort of treatment for either cancer or a covid variant (though I think that is less likely), or that fake marriage is finally fizzeling out. maybe some renegging on the contract? the cousins are still there, so at least one Wittstock has his eyes on the money...

quite a number of papers are speculating about the state of the marriage and her health. Apparently there are plans for their anniversary. If she is a no show, it will be interesting to see how they explain that away.

Has she ever really made a point of celebrating anniversaries? 🤨 I don't think royal life improved her manners much. quite a number of papers are speculating about the state of the marriage and her health. Apparently there are plans for their anniversary. If she is a no show, it will be interesting to see how they explain that away.

I think that there was an instapost for their 5years? Honestly they spent the first 2 years of their marriage touring the press to convince them that it was a real marriage. then she had heaps of surgery and ivf kids, she had more surgery, was mostly living in corsica and on some very dodgy peoples boats or in SA, now she has been for months in SA, he travelled, when she was home and vice versa. Not really much time spent under the same roof. She complained about motherhood and it does look like she is rather somewhere else. Then another love child appears. Doesn't look like a marriage worth celebrating to me. From all I can tell, no one really seems to teach the kids any rules or manners, looking how they keep running wild. When I look at Estelle or the BRF youngsters, those 2 seem like fresh from the tree. Obviously no surprise considering their background, but they are not doing them any favours.

Oh, I forgot about that 5 year contract. Maybe she signed for another 5 and now they are renegging and no new agreement has been reached? Another 5 and the kids can be sent to boarding school... Maybe that's why Albert took the kids to SA; to convince her to agree to another 5. But who knows, maybe she thinks she is still young enough to start a new life, whereas in 5 years... Also, maybe she has given up thinking that Albert would change for her as he got older. Now comes along the love child and her mom, who is still way younger than her. And then with the pandemic she can't get away as much... So how much should she ask for another 5? Doesn't look like she would be needed for another 10...

so not only German language papers question the state of their union, now the DM does too. They actually dig up that old witch thing and go through the last few generations of marriages. I don't think I was aware that Rainiers father was gay. But baffled again to see how much Caro is a spitting image of her paternal gran. Anyways funny thing is that apart from Bunte not really anyone is expecting them to be together on that day. As if a seperation has already been accepted...

sharing an anniversary video a week early? because of all the press about marriage problems or because she signed another 5 year deal? and the doctors want her to stay longer in SA? what sort of nose and ear illness takes that long? IMO either one of her surgeries went terribly wrong and she needs to stay until they fixed it properly or she is getting chemo and has been preparing with her hairdos for months. Or she simply left to put pressure on Albert to get a better deal?

German media seem to peddle the not together anniversary story. They still give her infection as an explanation. The kids are on holidays now. No reason for Albert not to be able to travel with them to SA and be with his wife. If only to drop off the kids to spend time with her after such a long period of seperation.
