Prince Albert of Monaco Contracts COVID-19 for 2nd Time

Prince Albert of Monaco tested positive for Covid-19 for a second time, the Palace confirmed on Wednesday.

The place affirmed that the 64-year-old royal, who was supposed to attend the Stony Brook Gala in New York last night, will continue to work remotely.

A statement from the palace read: “The Prince's Palace announces that H.S.H. Prince Albert II of Monaco has tested positive for COVID-19.”

The Palace assured that there is no need to be concerned about the royal's health and that he will be in constant contact with members of his cabinet as he remains in isolation.

Reports did not reveal whether Princess Charlene, who recently returned to Monaco after spending time in a treatment facility, or their seven-year-old twins Princess Gabriella and Prince Jacques have contracted the virus.

Albert first tested positive for Covid-19 at the beginning of the pandemic, around the same time as Prince Charles, 73, who tested positive for the second time in February this year.
