Spain's Princess Cristina plans to move to Switzerland without her husband, who is under investigation in a corruption case, Spanish media are reporting.
The 48-year-old princess, the middle child of King Juan Carlos' three offspring, is to work in Geneva for the charitable foundation belonging to La Caixa bank that has employed her in her home city, Barcelona.
Cristina's husband, the former Olympic handball player Inaki Urdangarin, and his former business partner Diego Torres have been named official suspects in a corruption case.
They are suspected of embezzling millions of euros in public funds through a charity.
Cristina, who co-owned one of Urdangarin's companies, is herself under investigation for tax fraud.
The princess is to move to Switzerland with the couple's four children while Urdangarin stays in Spain to follow the judicial inquiry, the sources were quoted as saying.
Unconfirmed reports claimed the couple has grown apart during the two-year investigation, which has dealt a heavy blow to the Spanish monarchy.
