She is very, very happy. A 20-year problem is at the point of being solved.  "Maybe she will have a party… Belgians are very big fans of champagne."  The relationship between her mum and dad is thought to have started in 1966, when Albert was married - to Donna Paola Ruffo di Calabria - but not yet king.  Boel was born in 1968 and her parents' affair is thought to have ended in 1984.  The 51-year-old first said the monarch was her father in 1999.  In 2005, she claimed Albert told her 'you are not my daughter'.  Her claim meant she and her mother were put on a 'high risk' list by banks.  This reportedly resulted in the Royal Bank of Scotland closing both of their accounts in 2012.  Her 11-year-old son was also put on the register, restricting his access to finances.   In 2013, she took her fight to the courts, resulting in Albert being told to hand over a DNA sample last year.  He faced being fined £4,238.31 for every day he failed to produce a sample.  The retired monarch handed one over shortly afterwards.
