Princess Charlene the Only Royal To Receive $12.3 Million Annual Salary? Here’s What It’s For
Prince Albert of Monaco has signed an "ultra-confidential contract" to pay his troubled wife Princess Charlene more than $12 million each year to fulfill her royal obligations.
According to a French tabloid, the prince is doing everything he can to have his 44-year-old wife by his side during public engagements.
The news follows the mom-of-return two's from a lengthy illness that lasted nearly a year in South Africa and six months of therapy in Switzerland.
Several French publications specializing in celebrity news indicated that all Royal watchers appreciated Princess Charlene's unexpected homecoming over the weekend.
Voici stated that she would not have returned at any cost, and that "she would have had her husband sign an ultra-confidential agreement."
They said that one of the terms is that Prince Albert pay her around 12 million euros every year.
The discoveries were then followed by an allegation by Paris Match Belgium.
His wife is now obligated to attend events such as the F1 Grand Prix on May 29 and the Rose charity ball on July 8.
The Monte Carlo Royal Palace would not reveal precise financial agreements, although the principality is said to pay $49.5 million each year to fund the institution's operating expenditures.
The royals are not paid employees. Prince Charlene, on the other hand, will have to rely on her spouse, a millionaire in his own right, for her own spending money.
According to a royal source who talked to the Daily Mail, the princess receives significant benefits, but "ready-cash" is not always assured.
They further allege, "She's gone through a difficult time, so it would make sense for Charlene to attempt to obtain her own fixed income."

Furthermore,People magazine said that members of her entourage described the Saint Devote Rugby competition, which she and her family also attended, as something near to the princess' heart.
In May 2021, the princess traveled to her own nation to support her conversation work, but ENT difficulties prevented her from coming home to Monaco for six months.
She returned to Monaco in November 2021, but it was revealed that she would not be returning to royal life immediately and would need to be treated at a Swiss clinic for mental and physical fatigue.
