What on earth is going on with Princess Charlene of Monaco?

[clartymare]

The latest update doesn't seem to make a huge amount of sense - a sinus infection has kept her away from Monaco since January? I understand that would mean you couldn't fly, but surely someone with her status would be offered another mode of transport to return to her children?
She doesn't look well in the video, I hope it's just poorly shot and that she's not seriously poorly.

I feel so sorry for this poor lady. She is obviously very unwell and I hope she gets the help she needs

I don't think its a Charles and Diana unhappy marriage thing, but I do think Charlene has either a mental health problem or eating disorder.

The drawings were weird, like they were begging Charlene to come home / remember her family / prioritise her family.

I also don't understand why she had to go to SA for treatment and stay there for treatment.

I wonder if it's a painkiller addiction. She had to stop her swimming career after a broken ankle

Have I missed any update on Charlene? It's all gone very quiet - I hope all is well in the Grimaldi camp.

Perhaps she's actually been very clever here.

If there's an NDA, and if its true that she's now living in France and only seldom permitted to see the kids, by plunking herself over in SA she has millions worldwide asking WTF - and the news is out without ever breaching any contract.

If so, clever woman!

I suspect this is the case. I mean if you already have very little access to your children, you don't have much to lose. So worth trying bold tactics.

I think she ran away. Maybe went to visit her family and refused to come back? I think anyone in her situation would be in mental distress.
