Interesting you should say that, because a couple of years ago, I listened to Max Clifford (who leaked the story and acted as Antonia de Sanchez's agent), who said that he was hired by the then goverment to leak the story because they were up to something that they didn't want the press to find out about.
Having said that, Max Clifford is just about the biggest Liar I have ever seen, so I don't know if that is actually true.
