• Visits This is the sheikha who has chosen (of his three wives) the emir of Qatar to visit the Kings

Kasia Gallanio,

former princess of Qatar, has been found

dead at her house in Marbella

this Sunday 29, according to the French media outlet

Le Parisien.

Although an autopsy

is scheduled to be performed this Tuesday

, the first investigations seem to indicate that the cause of death could be a

drug overdose,

as pointed out by the aforementioned media.

Gallanio, a 45-year-old American of Polish origin, is the

ex-wife

of Abdelaziz bin Khalifa Al-Thani, uncle of the Emir of Qatar (who was on an official visit to our country a few days ago), with whom he was in

legal proceedings

for custody of their three daughters (two of them twins).

A legal battle that spans a decade, since Abdelaziz bin Khalifa Al-Thani was

accused of sexually assaulting

one of the daughters, who was

between 9 and 15 years old

when the events occurred.

An accusation that the former Qatari minister has always denied.

The three daughters of the couple

live with their father,

owner of an immense fortune, on Montaigne avenue in Paris since Gallanio was

taken away from custody due to, according to

Gala

magazine

, his

problems with alcohol.

Abdelaziz bin Khalifa Al-Thani settled in France after leaving the post of minister.

The same French magazine assures that Gallanio suffered from

depression

precisely because of legal problems with her ex-husband.
