Does he care about being civil though? He kind of seems like he viewed her as a brood mare to get some appropriate heirs and has never stopped having kids out of wedlock and bedding other women. She has no leverage whatsoever.

I never understood this marriage to begin with. She never looks happy. He is who he is. They certainly courted long enough, you can't say she was pressured to marry him. Why? Why marry?

Reports at the time of their wedding said that Charlene tried to bolt but her passport was confiscated and she was persuaded to go through with it. She looked like she had seen a ghost all throughout the ceremony.

I think it defies belief that someone strong enough to make an Olympic team could be forced to go along with anything. What possible leverage would Albert have over her if she said no? Do you really think he could hold her prisoner indefinitely? If he did at all? Do you think maybe the sparkles of royalty did their thing? Despite Albert's glaring faults, a royal prince could easily, EASILY find many many willing brides.

I think you are being really naive.

All right, please explain how someone like Charlene can be forced to marry someone like Albert? What leverage would he have over her?

I cannot fathom leaving two small children for such a long time. She must be incredibly deeply depressed. If it weren’t for all the paparazzi photos of her smiling around town in South Africa I would think she was in an in-patient therapy setting.

Hope she at least got herself a decent prenup.

I still can’t get over someone claiming she shaved her head because she was in poor health. Stay classy DCUM!

I don’t blame Charlene if that’s indeed the reason. Who wants to live with a man not knowing how many children he has out there?

Anonymous wrote:Interesting choice for the Princess of Monaco. Something must be going on. Mid-life crisis? The pressure of being Princess of Monaco and she needed to burst out and do something? She's always had "normal" hairstyles but to go punk as a 42 year old mother who also happens to be a Princess? There is something else going on.

Turns out it goes right back to her marriage troubles.

Last December, word got out that he had been hit with a new paternity suit, from a Brazilian woman who said he fathered her 15-year-old daughter while Albert and Charlene were dating.

Soon after, Princess Charlene turned up in public with a shocking new punk buzzcut and heavy black eyeliner.

“She cut her hair the day she found out,” a longtime resident of Monaco who is close to the palace told The Post. “It was a radical move designed to show him and all of us how bad she felt and what terrible news this was — at least to her.”

She didn’t come back for their 10-year wedding anniversary. Albert showed up at the Monaco international horse show looking like a thumb with his niece.

I just realized she slipped out of Monaco in the dead of night on the one-year anniversary of H&M’s freedom declaration. Ironic.

Maybe they can. It's not clear they're that far along in negotiating.

Maybe she doesn’t want to live in Europe or a non-English speaking country for the next 15 years? The older I got the more I realized there’s no place like home and family. All of her family is a continent and ocean away. And she was living among a court of vipers with her every move photographed.
