The Concern of the Royal Family
Queen Sofia caused concern among members of the Spanish royal family, including King Felipe, Infanta Elena and Infanta Cristina, after she was rushed to hospital last month with a urinary infection. Although he attended social events such as the wedding of José Luis Martínez Almeida and Teresa Urquijo and a Mass in tribute to Gómez-Acebo, his health became complicated, requiring an extended stay at the Ruber Clinic in Madrid. Despite this, he was released from the hospital last Saturday and returned to the Zarzuela residence, although he still had an intravenous line.
The Salut of Sofia of Greece
Sofía de Grecia has also shown signs of health problems in her last institutional appearances, with difficulties in articulating words and mobility problems. These issues have led King Felipe VI to raise the possibility of retirement for Queen Sofia, although that option is not yet on the table.
Habits of Queen Sofia
Doctors have held serious talks with members of the royal family, urging them to make important decisions about Queen Sofia’s future. The need for Queen Sofia to adopt a more moderate lifestyle has been highlighted in several ways, including a habit that unexpectedly connects her with Queen Letizia. They seem to share the habit of smoking, although Queen Sofia only does so in the privacy of her home or as a family, according to the book “Lady Sofia. La Reina parla de seva vida” by Carmen Enríquez and Emilio Oliva.
Smoking Habits of the Royal Family
The book reveals that Queen Sofia took up smoking to appear older, a common practice at the time. In addition, his granddaughter, Victoria Federica, has also shown an inclination towards tobacco. In addition, King John Charles also had a penchant for tobacco, preferring cigars, although he gave up cigarettes but continued to smoke cigars. Despite doctors’ warnings, Queen Sofia still receives cigar boxes.
Unexpected Similarities
These revelations have revealed unexpected similarities between Queen Sofia and Queen Letizia, despite their differences and clashes. This unexpected connection has generated renewed public interest in the Spanish royal family.
