Exactly! Well said! Both posts. Although I seriously don't think Charlene should be given any kind of official role there
, one more reason for her to feel she deserves Grace's title or to stay there indefinitely. I don't think Albert wants to make that kind of commitment to her and be stuck with her forever, even if for the time being he is sticking everyone else with her. She needs to be able to make a clean exit if Albert ever wants to have any kind of a different future with another woman or a wife. Can you imagine that ever happening with Charlene there in Monaco in some official capacity?
Also Charlene put herself in that role
as much as Albert and
she has aspired to be in the position she is in.now. I agree Albert should have known better, but men can be very dumb and I don't mean to excuse his own role in any way, because he is the one that holds the title and responsibility and he should be interested in protecting his own role and image there as well as his families history, but
Albert isn't the one taking the money. Charlene is an Adult and responsible for herself and her own choices she has made.
I have no problem with any kind of relationship Albert wants to have as long as he kept his private life private, being a public person this is what most normal people try to achieve, and more importantly Albert has a role that is meant to be much respected, as well as the role as his wife. My objection is the
imposing of Charlene
into a role that is not hers! Charlene has done much herself to advance herself into that role knowing she has no right to it. She is presumptuous. This girl really thinks she can be respected by elbowing herself in to this role after accepting money and being kept so publicly for all these years. She actually boast about it? I cannot sympathize with Charlene--she is a grown woman and she should know what is right for her to do and what isn't--it is her reputation to lose,
she has no position there and hopefully never will. IMO I think
she is trying to elbow herself in even further in an effort to force Albert into marrying her and giving her a title, his mother's title and that is what so many of these posts here are all about!
I'm sorry but it's my opinion that this girl has had only one objective all along and
she didn't care how she was going to achieve it or how much manipulation of people it would take. It's kind of hard to support someone like this or sympathize with them.
Charlene doesn't have a job because she has never aspired to have one! If she would put the same effort into looking like a grown up and attributing something to her own support as she did into trying to manipulate Albert into giving her that elusive Princess Title,.as if it should be something that could be bartered?
Why should Albert or Monaco be responsible for finding this woman a job? What does she do all day and for all these years besides live out of everyone's pockets? How did she think she was going to live when she chose to move to Monaco? How did she expect that she was going to be perceived there? How did she expect she was going to support herself,
she's not Albert's wife? What did she expect to happen when the relationship ended? This girl is so very presumptuous in every way. IMO she's nothing but an opportunist and seeing her prance around Monaco and rubbing her situation in the people of Monaco's face probably does not sit well.with anyone. Albert's wife would at least assume some responsibilities and I don't mean attaching her name to one of his sister's charities which is probably the extent of Charlene's efforts or she would have been making an effort to prepare herself better (just in case). Charlene won't even make the effort for herself, how can anyone be expected to take this woman serious? The fact is she is publicly kept and paid and has admitted this in published accounts. This doesn't embarrass her???
It shouldn't make a difference who she is dating or how rich they are, it's wrong and her own vanity, greed, and laziness has compromised her, no matter what Albert has been willing to do for her? Or even what he does for her in the future, because it's a fact that will never change. I can't believe she thinks anyone would accept her now in the role of Albert's wife after that. There is a difference between helping someone out a little when they are going through a rough time and someone that is happy to agree to being a commodity . Albert doesn't even seem that wild about her, if he was he would have married her long ago and she knows that, but she still hangs there, so I really don't see the purpose of it all?
