We can always rely on King Karl to offer some fabulous controversial quotes…
Karl you don’t want to be photographed or filmed without your sunglasses on?
”They’re my burka”.
”A burka for a man. I’m a little shortsighted, and people, when they’re shortsighted, they remove their glasses and then they look like cute little dogs who want to be adopted”
“I had an interview once with some German journalist—some horrible, ugly woman.

“I always say, when people talk about not using fur, “Are you rich enough to make an income for the people in the north who live from hunting? What do you want them to live off of when there’s nothing else to do?”
