In the past few weeks, rumors about the Monegasque princely family have piled up.
Now a close confidante spoke about Princess Charlène's family.
Monaco - In the past few months there have been repeated rumors about the royal family of Monaco.
In addition to worries and speculations about Princess Charlène's health problems, there are also several rumors of divorce surrounding the princely couple.
Now a confidante of the princess spoke about the situation of the family.
Princess Charlène has been separated from her children and her husband Albert for six months now.
Only a few weeks ago she had to undergo an operation in South Africa.
However, rumors of the couple's separation continue to prevail in public.
These were recently fueled by Albert's aunt.
A few days ago, Albert's ex-lover Nicole Coste also heated up discussions about the family.

Coste, who has an illegitimate son with Prince Albert, talks about the situation in the royal family. Princess Charlène came off particularly badly: As Coste said in an interview, Albert's wife had moved the room of the then 7-year-old illegitimate son Alexandre Grimaldi Coste to the staff wing. “During the engagement period, I experienced things that alarmed and shocked me,” revealed Coste.
In an interview with
People
, a close confidante of the princess responded and doubts Coste's statements.
"Charlène was actually always the one who tried to keep the whole family together," the unnamed insider told the magazine.
There are public rumors that the princess would not support Albert's relationship with his older children.
The opposite is true, however.

Insider on Charlène's relationship with stepchildren: "She's kind of a heroine"
"She is a kind of heroine for the children," says the confidante in the interview. But it was not always easy for the former Olympic swimmer to involve her husband's two illegitimate children in her life and that of her children. "I don't want to say that she always wants the children around her because there are arguments on many fronts," interjects the insider.
About son Alexandre, whom Prince Albert had together with Nicole Coste, the confidante says that he is a wonderful young man who grew up in a very strange situation. "Charlène has always wanted to make it easier for him to have contact with Albert and she encouraged Albert to adopt him as a child," said the confidante. Prince Albert also confirmed this impression in an interview with
People.
He himself admitted that the relationship between his wife and his illegitimate children developed over time. "She accepts them more now," said Albert.
