But this is the interview of Mar Flores, not Victoria Federica; just mention at the end that they already know each other, but nothing more.

Maybe you misunderstood who was interviewed? It was Felipe's girlfriend, Mar Torres-not his sister Victoria.

My mistake. I thought that Victoria looked different in the photos!

At least one member of the King's family paid a visit to Baqueria Beret once a popular spot for the SRF in past years.

Froilán is the King's nephew and still 4th in line, but he is not an HRH or a member of the (official) Royal Family, and he doesn't have any public role in Spain nor will probably ever have. So, whoever he dates, it is his own private business only. The media will cover it because they are local celebrities/socialites in Spain and that is pretty much it.

It seems that Victoria and Jorge are happy with each other and they look like a good couple together too. I wish them well!

 I don't blame her - Seville is a beautiful city indeed and one of my favourites in Europe!

 It seems that Victoria and Jorge are garnering a lot of interest in Hola, what's the reception like amongst regular Spanish people? Do they have an interest in Infanta Elena and her children?

I think there is great interest in any member of the family of King Juan Carlos as they are kind of celebrities in Spain and in many Spanish-speaking countries of Latin America too.
The Spanish-speaking world doesn’t have anything like the British Commonwealth , but the King of Spain is the honorary president of the Organization of Ibero-American States, which is the closest equivalent they have to the Commonwealth. So the Spanish Royal Family has some international exposure too.

Doña Victoria Federica de Marichalar is 5th in line to the throne and the eldest niece of King Felipe VI,so there would be a level of interest in her ,ofcourse her love life helps keep the glossy magazines busy too!

Good point. I had forgotten about Latin America in the Spanish speaking world, so there'd be a lot more interest from the LATAM countries too. I think I remember reading that Sofia and Juan Carlos are quite popular in a lot of LATAM countries.
