Princess Cristina of Spain and her husband went on trial on Monday under global media scrutiny in a landmark corruption case that has outraged the country and sullied the monarchy's reputation.

The couple arrived together at a makeshift courtroom in Palma on the palm-lined Mediterranean island of Mallorca for the trial, in which Cristina has been charged with tax evasion while her husband Inaki Urdangarin is accused of crimes including embezzlement and money laundering.
