How is that even prison. I'm sorry I am just use to the US penitentiary system where when you get sebt to prison you are there 24 hours a day, 5 days a week, and 365 days a year depending on how long one's sentence is. Here in the US at best he could get visitation from his family. That's it... I hope he realizes and appreciates how good he has it.

In the U.S. he probably wouldn't have gone to prison. If he was even convicted, he would have gotten house arrest or a few months in a white-collar minimum security facility.

The US penitentiary system is extremely focused on penalties while in most EU countries the focus is far more on rehabilitation. After all: in the end citizens have to return in society. Usually a program is arranged for the reintegration in society.
That is why many penitentiary systems use community service as part of the reintegration. Iñaki is exactly in such a program at a facility centre for the disabled, where he has to work for free as part of his sanction.

So, the change that was announced on December 30 has now been implemented. I guess that means that he is no longer in isolation while imprisoned.
The article also mentions that his 'Christmas break' was the first since last February. He was entitled to about 7 temporary releases for the year (or so), so Covid-19 impacted his life in prison significantly as for quite some time he was not allowed to do his voluntary work (which meant be among other people several days a week) and his permission to leave once in awhile to visit family had come to a complete stop for 10 months.

Iñaki Urdangarin enjoys his semi freedom and visits Infanta Elena.
He celebrates his new life at the duchess of Lugo's house and surrounds her family.

No, he is on semi-release. He volunteers during the day and then has the afternoon and evening free. He sleeps at a residence for others on semi-release.

The Duke of Calabria's sister has always been close to the Spanish RF.

Aren't they related? I believe she is a great-great-granddaughter of King Alfonso XII, which would make her Infanta Cristina's third cousin if I am counting it correctly.
