An unprecedented crisis
The Royal House of Spain is experiencing a crisis of historic proportions, with Queen Letícia at the center of the epicenter. The recent revelations about the alleged infidelities of King Felipe VI, made by Jaime del Burgo on social networks, have triggered an earthquake that has shaken the foundations of the Zarzuela. Despite this chaos, the Royal House has maintained a deafening silence. No member of the royal family has come out in defense of the queen, not even Philip VI himself has supported his wife. For many observers, it seems that Letícia has been abandoned to her fate.
Noticeable changes in the queen’s life
In recent times, notable changes have taken place in the life of Queen Letícia. Until now, he had always been a prominent figure in the monarchy, avoiding any association with corruption or public scandals. But now, surprisingly, she herself is under public scrutiny, accused of infidelity following revelations about her alleged relationship with Jaime del Burgo. This change of roles is shocking and has called into question the impeccable image that Letícia had built with so much care.
Distance between Felipe VI and Queen Letícia
The relationship between the kings has deteriorated over time, and there has been speculation about a possible divorce since 2013. According to some chroniclers, this marriage is no longer such, but is purely a formality to keep up appearances . Sources such as Jaime Peñafiel and Laura Rodríguez claim that Felipe and Letícia have not shared the same bed for years and that they are going through a stage of intimate distancing similar to that experienced by the emeritus kings Juan Carlos I and Sofia for decades. Pilar Eyre, on the other hand, is more direct and forceful: “Marriage does not exist.”
Felipe VI away from the Zarzuela
In this scenario, Felipe VI was distant, spending many nights away from the Zarzuela and enjoying activities that distanced him from the palatial atmosphere. During the weekends, he devotes himself to his favorite hobbies, such as skiing or meeting friends at the Yacht Club. He has also been seen visiting his daughter Elionor in Zaragoza and taking part in events in Barcelona, getting away from the stress and tension that seems to have become the norm in his relationship with Letícia.
The Queen’s weekend getaways
Meanwhile, Leticia seems to be looking for new connections as she faces the reality of a marriage that seems to have come to an end. When she does not have to participate in institutional events with her still-husband, the queen takes the opportunity to make weekend getaways with her closest circle of friends. Some sources even speculate that in this group there is an important businessman from Madrid with whom the queen would have established a relationship. She will certainly have no shortage of suitors. After all, it looks like she’s on her way to golden singlehood.
