Princess Charlène of Monaco has again sought medical treatment.
In order to protect her privacy, she will not be treated in Monaco, her husband, Prince Albert II, told People magazine.
"It has nothing to do with our relationship, I would like to make that very clear," emphasized Albert.
"Since I know that there are a lot of rumors: It is not Covid," he said in the interview.
“It has nothing to do with cancer, either.
Not even with cosmetic surgery. "
Charlène's family attended Monaco's National Day celebrations on Friday.
In addition to husband Albert, the two children, Gabriella and Jaques, also came.
The six-year-old twins held up posters on a balcony that read "We miss you, Mommy" and "We love you, Mommy".
