Charlene's $18 MILLION SCANDAL

Shock new claims have surfaced about the royal’s sudden reappearance in Monaco

A shock new report in a French publication claims Princess Charlene of Monaco is being paid millions by husband Prince Albert to remain by his side.

Voici magazine alleges Albert, 64, has signed an “ultra-confidential contract” promising to pay his wife $18 million a year to continue performing her royal duties.

But unnamed friends of the royal couple have strenuously denied the claim. A source told Page Six, “Of course she has a generous prenup, but Albert doesn’t have to pay her to stay.

“After being away for so long during her illness, Charlene is so happy to be back with Albert and the kids. They spend every weekend at their country place. Albert is fully supportive of Charlene and is also helping her with her charities,” added the insider.
