I agree, grevinnan, and perhaps making a more permanent move overseas where they can start afresh is something they might choose to do when and if this scandal has been dealt with in the courts.
Does anyone think Juan Carlos might abdicate in favour of Felipe if things keep going as they have been? At least then, if there is deeper involvement by Cristina and JC in all this, at least the reigning monarch at the time (Felipe) would be able to be one step removed from it. Felipe could remove whatever staff of his father and sisters had a part in it all, Cristina moves abroad, JC retires to his girlfriend(s) and Felipe and Letizia start the long and difficult journey towards repairing the institution as far as possible.
I can't really see any other way this can end well for the Spanish monarchy.
