[biboquinhas]

I also think that she is getting mucht more attention with this and I think that she now she should be worry about her baby and maybe if she stays out of the spotlight the press will leave her alone.

But the press follows her around everywhere. How do you suggest she stay out of the spotlights then if she's followed everywhere she goes?

I think the press has left Telma alone for a while now!

Hopefully the press leaves her and the rest of Ortiz Rocasolano alone for good, not just during the lawsuit. Most people don't miss seeing them anyway.

The case "Telma Ortiz against the Spanish mass media", her fight to be recognized as "private person" will go into the next round on Oct 14th in Toledo.

For some time, Telma or her family have not been in the media focus at all. It is not clear whether she is still in Spain or has left the country.

Well I have absolutely no interest in them and I can´t understand anyone else being interested up to the point of buying a paper or magazine to read about them. Boring.

Thelma loses her appeal against dismission of her case against the Spanish mass media (she claimed to be a "private person" not allowing her picture to be taken or distributed unless on occasions involving her royal sister) . Not sure if it ends here or if she will go to the European court.

I suppose it means if she just keeps out of the limelight for a while the press will lose interest, if she presses forward with this suit then they will take photos of her all the time. Why doesn´t she keep a low profile and keep away from places where she will know that she will be seen. She is only the sister of the Princess, not really important at all and to most people not very interesting.

The problem only occured in Spain and Telma has allegedly left the country with her family to live in peace. She did keep a low profile in Spain but for some reason it did not work out, the press did not leave her alone and it is likely that with a lost court case the harrassment would continue in case Telma decided to come back and live in Spain again.

The Spanish magazines are terrible, I read a lot of them and they write the most terrible things about people in the news, I don´t know what kind of libel laws they have but when I want a good laugh I buy either "Secret" or another that has a name something like it but I can´t remember, they are all as bad as each other and must make any celebrity in Spain shiver in their boots...... Hola is the most innocent of the lot, only write more or less nice things.... The others are terrible.

I understand everyone want privacy but all this "they don't leave me alone!" story seems nothing more than a spoiled claim from Thelma...
Iñaki Urdangarin and Jaime Marichallar have brothers and sisters, and they live in Spain without anyone notice them.

[Menarue]

True, there must be some reason they go after Thelma, she must be giving them some reason for this?
I have always found the whole Ortiz family particularly lacking in interest.

Well just playing the devil's advocate.

Jamie and Inaki's siblings are not married to the future King of Spain. And unfortunately for Telma women tend to make more interesting stories in regards to tabloid magazines. She is young, beautiful, leaving an exciting life (or at least to some..I guess it depends on your own personal perference).

In regards to her case, while it does appear to be a stretch..it should be remembered that Telma is a private person. She doesn't act on behalf nor is she a member of the Spanish Royal Family. In addition, while Letizia and Felipe (even Jamie and Inaki) have things that are written about them. They have the power and the means to do something about it. IMO Telma doesn't. I mean, when is it okay to write anything and everything about a private individual.

I do not know if the attorney of Thelma has raised it badly, or if the judges had afraid to giving a resolution that they knew it was going to be very polemic. But it is an injustice.

A few weeks ago Gonzalo Miro won a demand because a television had emitted images of his private life. Gonzalo Miro is a son of Pilar Miro a famous director of cinema and therefore known since he was born, is employed at the television (speaking of the private life of others), goes to parties and is a boyfriend of the daughter of the Duchess of Alba.

This one is a part of the judgment...

Los noviazgos, a salvo del corazón · ELPAÍS.com

"A court concludes that to emit images of the personal life of the famous ones commits an outrage against their right of the intimacy, though they are taken in public places"

" It does not fit doubt that the affective and sentimental relations of the persons belong to the area deprived of the same ones, without they lose this character the possible relations that they could begin between persons with public projection, since this one does not eliminate their right to the intimacy ". " If such persons decide to support these relations to the margin of the public knowledge "

The lesson from Telma's case:
If you want be private person and you want it for your family never married a royal special a future ruler.


I don't think that the Spanish press simply forget about Telma. She is the only living sister of the future Spanish Queen. That's her curse.

Easy for you to say. Maybe you can try telling that to a family friend over coffee.
