– There were many rumors about the “disappearance” of the princess, and it was speculated to what extent it was really related to health. However, she is now at her place in Monaco again, which I think her two children value the most. They lived for months without a mother by their side, Caroline Vagel, an expert on the Royal Household, at See and Hear, tells Dagbladet.

The princess initially went there to draw attention to the protection of the rhino, but at the end of May she underwent surgery for a serious ear, nose and throat injury – and thus had to postpone the return trip.

This summer she had to have another surgery, who kept her in South Africa for another three months. In September, she fainted and was hospitalized in the country. However, she was released from prison the next day, and the court was quick to say there was nothing to worry about.
