The unexpected return of a character from the past
Felipe and Letizia have been surprised by the unexpected reappearance of Jaime del Burgo, who has emerged as a specter from the past after a five-year absence. The lawyer revealed one of the most shocking secrets of Zarzuela when he gave his testimony to Jaime Peñafiel for his most recent work.
Del Burgo, former partner of Telma Ortiz, used her online platforms to get back at the monarchs, alleging that the queen had been unfaithful to the king for several years, which supposedly triggered the end of their marriage in 2012.
Theories and speculations surrounding the revelations
Expert journalists specialized in the Royal House have put forward their own theories. Maica Vasco, for example, maintains that the royal marriage has been a farce from the beginning, and that the queen’s alleged infidelity would have been a consensual agreement with Felipe VI. According to Vasco, this pact involved the three protagonists.
The information scattered around this story keeps the nation in suspense, but Jaime del Burgo is not willing to remain silent. Despite the attempts of the Royal House to silence him, he is determined to reveal all the information with the aim of discrediting the Bourbons. Although he declares himself a monarchist, he rejects the Bourbon dynasty, which he considers responsible for the country’s ruin during his 300-year reign.
The impact on other royals
Del Burgo’s influence is not limited to the royal family. His statements and threats have accelerated the divorce process between Iñaki Urdangarin and Infanta Cristina, which had been stalled for two years. Juan Carlos has given in to all of Iñaki’s demands, especially the economic ones, due to the information he has about the Royal House, including details about Felipe and Letizia, as well as the king emeritus. This situation has led to an agreement that benefits Urdangarin, who, thanks to Del Burgo’s revelation, has obtained a large sum of money and a lifetime pension.
For the moment, Juan Carlos has managed to control Urdangarin, but now he faces the challenge of Jaime del Burgo, whose actions could be dangerous for the royals, especially in the Nóos case.
