An unexpected family reunion
Today, Queen Letizia returns from her cooperation trip to Guatemala and will meet with an unexpected surprise. On his return, he was reunited with Infanta Cristina and Infanta Elena, while the latter visited Queen Sofia daily. In addition, he has actively participated in the institutional agenda. However, the most shocking surprise is the arrival of new guests at Zarzuela as moving trucks have been seen entering the venue.
Loss of power and family changes
Since her abdication, Queen Letizia has seen how her power in the institution and in the family has been diminished due to a smear campaign against her person. This has forced her to accept the role of queen consort, having seized the power of the throne in the past. According to Jaime del Burgo, there has been speculation about Letizia’s alleged infidelity with him for several years, which could have been the trigger for the marital problems.
New dynasties in Zarzuela
The presence of the Urdangarin in the royal house has generated tensions, since the presence of Victoria Federica was already a challenge, and now the presence of Irene and Miguel Urdangarin is added. In addition, Miguel has decided to take a sabbatical following an injury while studying marine biology in the UK. However, he has chosen to stay in Madrid with his grandmother, Queen Sofia, instead of going to Geneva with Cristina. This situation has shown Letizia’s loss of control over her family members.
Conclusions
In short, Queen Letizia has seen her power erode and new members of the royal family gain ground. This new family dynamic has generated tensions and unexpected changes that have marked a before and after in the life of the queen.
