MANILA, Philippines — Prince Albert II of Monaco recovered from novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) about two weeks after testing positive for the disease, his daughter Jazmin Grimaldi confirmed on Wednesday.

“Bravo! Prayers have been answered and my Father has announced he is healed and healthy from the devastating Corona Virus! He is now free to go quarantine with family...This was very wonderful news to hear today!” Jazmin posted on social media. She revealed pictures of her 62-year-old father who seemed to be healthy.

The head of the Mediterranean enclave reportedly continued working from his private apartments at the royal palace even after he was announced to have tested positive for the coronavirus last March 19.
