The announcement of Juan Carlos's self-imposed exile comes on the heels of months of building controversy about the royal's alleged financial misdeeds. In June, Spain’s Supreme Court began an investigation into Juan Carlos's role in a multibillion-dollar deal in which a consortium including Spanish companies was awarded the contract to build a high-speed rail line in Saudi Arabia.
According to the Guardian, documents from prosecutors allege that while he was King, Juan Carlos received a $100 million "donation" from the king of Saudi Arabia which was then placed in an offshore account.
