And while Princess Charlene is in self-isolation, after being confirmed positive for coronavirus, her husband, Prince Albert, praises her in public. He told the Journal de Dimanche that his wife had 'suffered greatly', and then added that her absence of almost a year had caused many health problems and that it was a real test for their marriage, as well as for the children, Prince Jacques and Princess Gabriella.
Her return to Monaco was described by Albert as the best thing that could have happened. He also said that last year and the events in it were a big test, especially for his wife who suffered a lot and went through hard things, away from her family.
'We missed the princess very much and bad rumors only hurt us. But we managed to survive together, despite the distance, because we talked often. Today Charlene is with us again and that is the best thing that could have happened. She is better and we can finally spend time together. It is a real relief, but also happiness for all of us. ' Albert stated.

'My health is still fragile and I don't want to rush with anything. The road to recovery has been long, difficult and very painful,' Charlene told Monaco-Matin.'When I returned home, I focused all my energy on my children, my husband and my health, because those are my priorities,' she added, denying rumors of a possible divorce from Prince Albert and relocation to Switzerland.
'I am very happy to be in Monaco again with my family,' said the princess, who appeared with her daughter at the Monte Carlo Fashion Awards this week, and posted a photo from the preparations on her Instagram profile.
