After a lengthy absence away from what she's described as the “goldfish bowl” of her life in Monaco, Princess Charlene finally returned this month - but if the royal has her way, it won't be for long.
Palace insiders say the 44-year-old is desperate to pack up her family and move to Switzerland and is busy convincing her husband of almost 11 years Prince Albert to get on board with her plan.
“After spending the past year receiving treatment for ongoing health issues, first in South Africa and later in an exclusive Swiss clinic, Charlene has had time to think about her life and future and, above all, the future of her children," a close friend of the royal tells Woman's Day.
“She's realised that not only is life in Monaco toxic for herself, but she worries about how it might affect her seven-year-old twins (Jacques and Gabriella] who are growing up with all kinds of pressures, tugged in all directions, far from the real world.”
