The exiled former Spanish king Juan Carlos was 'injected with female hormones to control his rampant sex drive', an ex-police chief has sensationally claimed in a parliamentary hearing.
Jose Manuel Villarejo also said the disgraced former monarch, now living at a luxury hotel in Abu Dhabi, was given testosterone blockers by the Spanish secret service after his libido was categorised as a 'state problem.'
Villarejo, a former Spanish Police commissioner currently on trial in a blackmail case, said, according to The Times: '[The National Intelligence Centre (CNI)] injected female hormones and testosterone blockers to control his libido because it was considered a problem of state that he was so horny.'
He went on to add, answering questions from a Catalan MP in a Parliamentary Commission investigating separate spying allegations under a previous Spanish government: 'They took everything away from him, he couldn't be with a woman or anything.'

Villarejo, who has been accused of spying on and working to discredit some of Spain's most high-profile politicians as a key figure in the nation's 'sewer politics', also insisted he was asked to get rid of medical documents which would have proved the medication went on.
He denied having any involvement in the effort to bring Juan Carlos' notorious sex drive under control and said he found out about it from Corinna Larsen, a former lover of the ex-monarch now living in London.
In an explosive book published in 2016 called 'Juan Carlos: The King of 5,000 lovers', Spanish society writer Amadeo Martinez Ingles dubbed the ex-king a sex addict and said he had hundreds of relationships even after marriage to his wife Queen
