Pilar Abel, 61, a fortune-teller from Salvador Dalí’s home town of Figueres in Catalonia, believes she is the product of a “clandestine love affair” between her mother Antonia and the surrealist in 1955. A Spanish judge has now ordered the exhumation of the artist’s body for DNA testing. Ms Abel hosted a tarot-card reading show on local television. She denies wanting a slice of the £265 million Dalí estate. Awkwardly, Dalí famously preferred voyeurism to actual sex. Metro, D.Mail, D.Mirror, 27 June 2017.
