I think the whole hunchbacked thing is a lie.
They were protected from the media in Spain because Spain has its own terrorism, their father wanted them to have a normal life and because it is routine in Spain not to include familes in political life. No photo of a child, papparazi'd or studio posed can be printed in Spanish media without parental permission.

They'd be as safe as anyone else getting on a train or a bus if their faces weren't instantly recognisable. There's a good chance that if they live in Madrid they'll be happier with a low-key existence.

Theses points seem to have been overlooked because 1) When's the last time Obama's kids got on the bus; 2) When's the last time public transport in America was blown up? 3) The free press in America has no such boundaries.

I think it was someone putting 2 + 2 together and making 5.
