According to a June 1 news report in the Mirror, Kasia Gallanio, a 45-year-old former Princess of Qatar, died at her home in southern Spain on Sunday, and a police autopsy confirmed that her cause of death was suspected to be a drug overdose.
The former princess, who grew up in Los Angeles, is actually a Polish-American. With bi-national ancestry, she looks very iconic, so she met her ex-husband, Abdelaziz bin Khalifa Al Thani, 73, at a beautiful age, and became his third wife.
Abdelaziz, the son of Qatar's eighth King Khalifa, served as oil and finance minister from 1972 to 1992 but was forced into exile after a failed coup in 1995 and has lived in Paris, France ever since.
Cassia and Abdelaziz married in 2004 and have three daughters. However, shortly after the birth of the youngest daughter, the marriage of the two was in crisis and began a more than ten-year-long battle for custody. Abdelaziz said it was his wife's problems that caused the marital crisis because his wife, Cassia, was an alcoholic and had serious mental health problems. But Cassia accused her husband Abdulaziz of molesting and sexually assaulting their eldest daughter, but this claim was denied by the other side.
After years of losing the case, Cassia settled in Marbella, Spain, while her three daughters followed Abdelaziz to Paris, France. It is reported that the three daughters, after their ex-husbands, live a rich family life without worrying about food and clothing. However, Cassia is extremely angry and sad because she thinks that her ex-husband has manipulated and threatened her daughter with money, and has prevented her daughter from meeting her through various means.
On May 29, 2022, police in Marbella received a call from Cassia's young daughter, who said she had not been able to contact her mother for several days, was worried about what might have happened, and asked the police to check. Subsequently, the police arrived at Cassia's residence, but repeatedly called the door without responding. As a result, the Police of Marbella had to break through the door, but unfortunately found Cassia lying on the bed, and had lost signs of life.
Police in Marbella said there were no signs of fighting at the scene and no wounds on Cassia's body, which ruled out the possibility of his killing. But they found drugs at the scene, and there was initial suspicion that Cassia might have died of a drug overdose.
Just a few weeks before her death, Cassia shared the content and thoughts of an interview she had given on social media. Cassia once said on the "Women's World Show" that she received a lot of messages, mostly about women in the Middle East who are in marital difficulties. Cassia argues that money is actually a curse because it is like a golden cage that binds and traps people inside. Cassia felt that freedom was "the most important thing." Cassia wanted to be able to get out there and do what she wanted to do, not just be tied down and isolated.
For the death of the former princess, the translator expressed deep regret and regret. From her words, it is not difficult for us to feel the distress of the "canary", it seems that independence and self-improvement is the real way of life for women.
