The bad news fell at the end of the day on Wednesday April 13, 2022, via a press release sent by the palace. Albert of Monaco is again positive for Covid-19, a state that the 64-year-old prince knows very well since it is not the first time that he has been there.
The state of health of the sovereign, “asymptomatic“, “absolutely no worries“, according to the same source.”He works remotely, in permanent contact with the members of his cabinet, his government as well as with his close collaborators.“, adds the palace. “This period of isolation will adapt to the health rules in force.“, concludes the press service of the sovereign. In Monaco, these rules stipulate in particular, in the event of a positive PCR test, to respect a seven-day isolation.
The Prince’s Palace announced on March 19, 2020 that Prince Albert II had tested positive for Covid-19. He had been the first head of state in this case.
At the time, Albert of Monaco logically had to be confined away from his children, the twins Gabriella and Jacques aged 7, and his wife, Princess Charlene. A necessary test that the son of Grace Kelly and Prince Rainier III had had a little trouble living. “I’m starting to see the end of the tunnel. I still cough a little bit, but all the other lights are green. So I see the next few days with a lot of serenity, he first said in an interview with Anne-Claire Coudray in March 2020, on TF1. JI am in constant contact with my family and my loved ones, who of course I miss a lot since I am the only one here, at the palace, my children and my wife are in our domain of Rocagel which is a few kilometers from Monaco. The other family members are a bit scattered, but everyone is doing well and everyone is in good spirits, and I think that’s the most important thing.“
Prince Albert can undoubtedly count on the support of his wife who joined him recently. Charlene of Monaco made her big comeback in the principality last March but has remained very discreet since her comeback made official through an official press release.
