While Spanish prosecutors later closed several investigations citing insufficient evidence or legal immunity during his reign, the controversy significantly affected his reputation and led to his relocation outside Spain for a period of time.
King Edward VII
Before ascending the throne, King Edward VII, then Prince of Wales, was involved in what became known as the Baccarat Scandal of 1890. The future king was called as a witness in a high-profile court case involving illegal gambling and allegations of cheating among aristocratic circles.
Although Edward was not accused of wrongdoing, his presence at the center of the scandal attracted considerable public attention and criticism.
Princess Anne
Princess Anne, sister of King Charles III, has had several minor legal issues related primarily to driving offences.
Over the years, she received speeding fines and, in one instance, a temporary driving ban. In 2002, she also pleaded guilty under the Dangerous Dogs Act after one of her dogs injured two children in Windsor Great Park. She was fined for the offence. These incidents were handled through standard legal procedures.
