According to Serbian Economist, Princess Katarina T. Karadjordjevic has found herself at the center of a financial scandal in the UK after a private investor claimed to have lost 50,000 pounds in a project he invested in, trusting her and her business partner. This was reported by the British Daily Mail.
According to the publication, the investor in question is British dermatologist Robin Russell-Jones, who met the princess in London. Shortly thereafter, her close associate and business partner Sharon Rea offered him the opportunity to invest £50,000 in a purported international project promising returns of up to £4 million. It was claimed that the initiative allegedly had the backing of international institutions, including the International Monetary Fund.
However, the project later turned out to be a sham, and the invested funds disappeared. The investor took the matter to court and won the case, but the money has still not been returned to him. According to the court ruling, Sharon Rea must repay the debt in installments—£100 per month.
The publication notes that Princess Catherine’s collaboration with Rea lasted at least five years. During this time, they promoted a number of international initiatives, including hospital construction projects and the organization of the Tsunami of Sound charity concert series; however, according to the report, none of these projects were ultimately implemented.
When the investor began to doubt the project’s credibility, he tried to contact Princess Katarina to verify information about her partner but received no response. The princess herself did not respond to media inquiries, while some of her acquaintances suggest she may have been misled.
The Karadjordjevic dynasty is a Serbian and Yugoslav royal dynasty that traces its origins to Karadjordje, the leader of the First Serbian Uprising. Members of the dynasty ruled Serbia in the 19th and early 20th centuries, and later the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes and the Kingdom of Yugoslavia from 1921 to 1941.
