The photographs of Bárbara Rey and King Juan Carlos, leaked by the star’s son to a Dutch magazine and published this Wednesday, occupy the television talk shows. The one of The Anthill this Thursday, too. Tamara Falcó, Cristina Pardo, Juan del Val and Nuria Roca have given their opinion on the matter, also in light of Pablo Motos’ notes.
“What catches my attention is that it is the Dutch press that publishes them. and the son [Ángel Cristo Jr.]who has gone to sell them there. I think that the Spanish press must evolve, take another step and be a little braver“said Nuria Roca.
Cristina Pardo has argued in response to her colleague’s note: “The information I have is that the photos have not been sold here because The Spanish press would have had problems due to the right to honor, privacy… Because those photos are taken in a private place.”
Afterwards, Tamara Falcó pointed out: “Having photos taken inside a house is the last straw. Well, having your son sell you is the last straw. It’s all very bizarre”. And the Marchioness of Griñón has come out in defense of Felipe VI’s father: “The photos have come out, it is what it is, a lot of time has passed, well… The emeritus king is super old, the blows keep falling on him. Yes, we all make mistakes, but now, now”he said, about the former monarch and former Head of State.
Juan del Val has continued with the press debate: “The hypocrisy of the Spanish press is astronomical, here we do not publish it but we say that another media has published it and we have been seeing the photos in all the programs all the time.”
Cristina Pardo reminded him: “The Spanish press was the one that brought out the emeritus scandals, let’s not attack the Spanish press now either.”
Tamara Falcó, for her part, has also said: “This story came out a long time ago and it is assumed that the intelligence service had these photos in their possession. That’s the strange thing”the daughter of the queen of hearts has said about the star’s alleged blackmail of the institution, a blackmail that the Totana actress continues to deny, ensuring that these photos were taken as her own life insurance when she felt threatened.
Del Val added: “The emeritus, for 30 or 40 years, has been protected. This story and others were known to everyone and were not spoken openly”.
Pablo Motos has settled the debate: “The topic makes me a little sick”he said, when it was commented that Ángel Cristo Jr. claims that it was his mother who asked him to take these photos when he was 13 years old, in 1994. And he has sentenced, alleging the privacy of a former monarch, former Head of State, which would have put his institution and his family (royal family) in check if these photos had come out at the time: “We are getting into the privacy of some people… With everything that is journalistic and so on, but it bothers me a little”.
