Podeli : Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic has announced that the King of Eswatini, formerly known as Swaziland, will be visiting Serbia on October 19. King Mswati III, 56, has been at the helm of the kingdom since he was 18. The country was called Swaziland until 2018 when it was renamed Eswatini.
While this small African state of just 1.2 million people is known for its extreme poverty and the world’s highest HIV infection rate per capita, the king is famous for his lavish lifestyle and numerous wives. He has been married 15 times, two of his wives have died, and two have left him, leaving him with 11 current wives.
King Mswati III has a total of 39 children and 13 grandchildren. Last month, he got engaged for the 16th time, this time to the daughter of a former South African President. For public appearances and official state visits, the king is always accompanied by one wife, so it remains to be seen which wife will accompany him to Belgrade.
The President’s office said the king will be on an official visit to Serbia from October 19 to 22..
