PRINCE ALBERT PAYING WIFE TO STAY AT HIS SIDE

Secret ledgers expose bizarre arrangemen­t with Charlene

-

CRITICS are slamming Monaco’s weak Prince Albert for buying peace in the royal household by showering his is spend-crazy wife, Princess Charlene, with millions to feed her wasteful habits!

A newly uncovered dossier of secret note- books kept by former palace finance chief Claude Palmero contains a catalog of exorbitant sums Albert, 66, allegedly threw at Charlene, 46, to keep her happy!

Palmero’s papers also detail how the former Olympic swimmer squandered princely sums, including three quarters of a million dollars, on the baptism of the clashing couple’s twins, Jacques and Gabriella, now nine.

The documents from Palmero — who was kicked to the curb last year after two decades juggling Albert’s boo books — also reveal C Charlene received more than $1.25 million in annual mad money to fritter a away in the gambling m mecca.

The princess has a “crazy desire to spend money,” dishes a source, who has been researchin­g the dossier’s claims.

“Prince Albert says yes to everything. Charlene is very lonely in the palace, so her best friend is possibly the prince’s money!”

The couple’s financial foibles — including extravagan­t payments to Charlene’s “illegal migrant” nannies and Albert’s ex-mistresses and love children — have sparked a backlash against the spineless sovereign, with some saying the meek Monegasque should stand up to his spendthrif­t wife!

As GLOBE readers know, Charlene’s marriage to her horndog hubby has been hanging by a thread ever since she fled to her native South Africa in 2021 and then to a Swiss clinic to get her head together.

Now, insiders say Albert is trying to buy off his pampered princess so he can live in peace!

“Albert is a weak person,” snipes a source. “I think his heart is in the right place, but he avoids confrontat­ion.”
