Princess Charlene will not be attending Monaco’s National Day

The Princely Palace announced on Tuesday that Princess Charlene would not be attending Monaco’s National Day with her husband, Prince Albert.

Although the princess was recently declared fit to travel back home to Monaco to be with her family after spending just over six months in South Africa due to an ear, nose and throat infection, Charlene and Albert decided it would be best for her to rest and fully recover.

“The royal couple decided that a period of calm and rest is necessary to ensure the very best recovery for Princess Charlene’s health,” said the Princely Palace in a statement.

Prince William ‘fumes’ as Kate Middleton gets dragged into Harry and Meghan feud

Prince William is reportedly angered by the fact that his wife Kate Middleton has been dragged into Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s drama.

Royal expert Kate Nicholl made this revelation in a Channel 5 documentary titled William and Harry: Princes at War?

“He was very, very cross that Kate, who had up until then been very much peripheral in this fraternal rift, had been pulled in. There is never smoke without fire. How true these stories are, possibly you take some of them with a big pinch of salt.

“I certainly had been told by very reliable sources that the girls weren’t the best of friends, weren’t as close as perhaps they might have been. But actually the real issue wasn’t between Meghan and Kate, it was between William and Harry,” said Nicholl.

New York Magazine recently took to social media to reveal that a report was released which shows that the accounts which fuelled harassment and hate against Meghan and Harry were not bots, but highly coordinated troll accounts.
