The ex-lover of Spain’s king emeritus on Friday testified that her life had been threatened by a former spy chief on orders from the exiled monarch in a conversation that “terrified” her.
The explosive testimony by German-born business consultant Corinna Larsen emerged during the trial of a notorious retired police chief suspected of large-scale corruption whose revelations have shaken Spain’s elite.
