FEARS CHARLENE’S ON BRINK OF COLLAPSE!

Monaco’s fragile princess being pushed too hard

-

PUSHED into a grueling schedule of public appearance­s, Monaco’s frail Princess Charlene is close to another collapse, insiders fear!

While the reluctant royal puts on a brave face for crowds and the cameras, Charlene’s in tears behind closed doors at the palace, according to sources who fear the 44-yearold blonde is on the verge of a breakdown less than two months after her skirt-chasing hubby, Prince Albert, 64, made her resume joint public appearance­s.

“Charlene’s still being paraded like a show pony and the regimen she’s been given is punishing, to say the least,” spills an insider.

“Every waking hour is mapped out for her and she’s often on her feet for hours at a time.

“She’s expected to be by Albert’s side, and it’s exhausting for her to face cameras all the time.

“The palace is pushing her forward as though to assure the public nothing has changed.” But GLOBE reported the fragile South African beauty had been out of action for 15 months before being dragged back into the limelight in April.

In January 2021, a month after a Brazilian woman accused Albert of fathering her now 16-year-old daughter, humiliated Charlene fled to her homeland and wouldn’t return to Monaco.

Albert, who already supports two love children from former flings, dismisses the woman’s charge as a “hoax,” but if true, he was bedding the gal while courting former Olympic swimmer Charlene. His runaway wife went under doctors’ care in South Africa — but a source claims part of the reason Charlene stayed away was because she “couldn’t bear to be near her husband.”

Then in November, she returned to Albert and their seven-year-old twins in Monaco, but just over a week later, the prince had his wife secretly shipped off to a Swiss clinic citing “emotional and physical exhaustion.”

Sources tell GLOBE Charlene underwent violent electrosho­ck treatments while in Switzerlan­d and since returning to Monaco she seems dazed and robotic. While she appears at Albert’s side in public, a body language expert notes she doesn’t EVER touch her husband or smile, indicating a strained relationsh­ip.
