No, King Richard III was normal looking and acting as far as we know, the idea of Richard III as a hunch backed monster comes from Tudor Propaganda against him, both before and after his fall, trying to paint him as unnatural and a monster, the Tudors kept up these anti-Richard/anti-York attacks up well after Richard III's dead in 1485 they go all the way up to Shakespeare's play Richard III written for Queen Elizabeth I (last Tudor monarch) in 1591, 106 years after Richard III's death.
