Scandal about the Spanish royals, the husband of the infanta Cristina paparazzi with his lover
“These things happen,” said Iñaki Urdangarin. The marriage with King Philip's sister is now at an end
When it comes to "real" gossip the Brits are unbeatable. But even our Spanish colleagues know how to defend themselves.
This time the Infanta Cristina, one of the two sisters of the current King of Spain Philip VI and the favorite daughter of the former sovereign Juan Carlos, ends up on the front pages of the tabloid weeklies.
On "Lecturas" was published the photo of her husband Iñaki Urdangarin, hand in hand on the beach with another woman, the lawyer Ainhoa Armentia, her colleague in the law firm where she works in Vitoria. Here he is serving a five-year sentence for embezzlement, fraud and trafficking in influences.
Caught in the act, the former handball player and former Duke of Palma de Mallorca certainly did not hide: "These things happen", he said: "But we will be able to manage them in the best way".
On the other hand, the Infanta knew that this relationship was ongoing. So at least he replied laconic from Geneva, where he lives and works in the Aga Khan Foundation. “We are calm - said his son Pablo - we will certainly discuss it with the family, but these are things that can happen. Nothing will change ”. Words that suggest that marriage has long since come to an end.
Cristina di Borbone and Iñaki Urdangarin married in 1997: they have four children, Juan, Pablo, Irene and Miguel. Their bond, despite the shock of the Nóos financial scandal, seemed solid, considering that the other infant, Elena, divorced her husband Jaime de Marichalar in 2010 and rumors of crisis repeatedly follow one another on King Philip and his wife Letizia. But evidently there is nothing more solid.
