A Belgian prince has contracted coronavirus after attending a party during the lockdown in Spain, the country’s royal palace announces.
The BBC reports that Prince Joachim, 28, travelled from Belgium to Spain for an internship on 26 May, the palace said.
Two days later, he went to a party in the southern city of Córdoba, before testing positive for Covid-19.
Spanish reports suggest the prince, a nephew of Belgium’s King Philippe, was among 27 people at the party.
Spanish police have launched an investigation into the party. Those found to have flouted lockdown rules could be fined up to €10,000 (£9,000; $11,100).
