Charlene Wittstock, her father Michael speaks: “She will overcome all this and come out stronger”

Charlene from Munich “he will overcome all this and come out stronger“. Certainly the dad of the princess, Michael Wittstock, 75, who in an interview with the South African newspaper You speak out for the first time about her daughter’s health conditions. Dad Michael is confident because he knows the temper of his daughter, who has a past as a swimmer and underwent “very hard training”: “He swam every day for twenty kilometers“. Mr. Wittstock also explained that he and his wife Lynnette, 74, did not reach Charlène in the long months in South Africa due to the coronavirus. Given their age they were afraid of getting sick but above all they feared infecting their daughter weakened by continuous surgery.

Father Michael’s reassuring words counterbalance those of a friend of the princess, whom she recently revealed to Page Six: «Charlène in South Africa she almost died. I don’t understand why Palazzo Grimaldi diminishes the gravity of the situation ». For months the world has been wondering about real conditions of the princess. Because health problems continue to give her no respite. After leaving the South Africa, where she was stuck for months due to an ENT infection that forced her to several surgeries, she returned to the Principality at the beginning of November and it seemed that the worst was over: everyone was wondering when we would see the princess again in public . Instead Charlène has disappeared again.

Prince Alberto, in an interview with Morning Monaco, he explained that his wife, who had just returned from South Africa, left the Principality for a secret place (“far from the Rocca, but close enough to allow me and the children to visit her”) where she will rest until she is completely cured. The last images of Charlène, who appeared tired and tried on her return to Europe, had led to believe the words of Alberto, who had lovingly explained how much his wife was “Tired, physically and psychologically”. According to the official announcements released by the Palace, the decision that the princess would spend her convalescence in a quiet and sheltered place was taken by mutual agreement by the two sovereigns.

A source told here is another story. The princess would have chosen to take refuge in a Swiss rehabilitation clinic specialized in addiction treatment to detoxify from the abuse of sleeping pills but above all to get away “from the negativity of the Palace”: “AND it was Charlène who wanted to leave, because she was determined to save herself ». According to the French weekly, the official communications no longer even believe the Monegasques, who instead would be more inclined to give credit to those who – for months now – describe the royal couple on theverge of divorce.
