Charlene to produce heir before divorce

Paris - Princess Charlene could leave husband Prince Albert once she has his child, reports TimesLive.

According to TimesLive, a news magazine in Paris, VSD, quoted a source as saying the royal couple would end their relationship once Princess Charlene provides a legitimate heir to the Monaco throne.

Another source told the news magazine: "Once the succession of the dynasty is assured, each of them can be free again. Divorce is a tradition in the Grimaldi family."

These rumours are just the latest in a number of reports that suggest the royal couple's marriage is anything but blissful.

While in South Africa last week, Charlene and Albert reportedly stayed in different hotels and declined to kiss for the cameras while attending events.

Princess Charlene attended a charity event in Cape Town on Friday where she was named co-patron of the Giving Organisation along with Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu.

She and Albert then cut their stay in South Africa short and flew back to Monaco on Friday to attend to "urgent business".
