The Palace's statement

Now speculation is flaring up again, as the French magazine Royauté recently claimed that the couple would be in the process of separating. After this article was published, Brittani Barger, a journalist for Royal Central magazine, contacted the Monaco Palace.

The palace has issued a statement in response and sheds light on the state of the relationship between Prince Albert and his wife, who have two children together. The Palace Press Office formally rejects the 'malicious rumors of the French magazine Royauté'. According to Royal Central, the statement also argues that the speculation is 'completely unfounded.'

The news spread like wildfire

The reason for the most recent speculative statements is the fact that Princess Charlène did not attend Prince Albert's 65th birthday party. After Royauté reported on the alleged separation, other media also spread the speculation, thus fueling the rumor quickly. The Palace seems to think there is absolutely no ground for speculation, but commentators do not seem done spreading the alleged news.

In 2006, professional swimmerCharlène and Prince Albert made their first public appearance as a couple, in 2011 the two married, and in 2014, the twins Jacques and Gabriella were born.
