Analysis of the relationship between Felipe and Letizia
In recent months, media attention on the kings of Spain has increased after Jaime del Burgo made some revealing statements. The interest in the state of the marriage between Felipe VI and Letizia has triggered an intense debate among experts of the Royal House. Some of these analysts are of the opinion that the relationship between the couple has lost all its vitality over a long period.
Marriage of Convenience?
According to the aforementioned lawyer, this deterioration is associated with Felipe’s extramarital relationship with the mother of his daughters, Leonor and Sofia. From the perspective of some, this feeds the theory of a marriage of convenience, as journalist Maica Vasco has suggested.
Crisis and Difficult Decisions
The crisis that exploded in 2012, probably caused by the aforementioned triangular relationship, led Felipe and Letizia to agree on their marriage. Originally, they considered divorcing, but ultimately chose to follow a path similar to the kings emeritus, choosing to live separately in their personal lives but maintain a facade of loved ones in public view.
Separate Lives during the Holidays
Recently, Letizia has sought her own tranquility in Son Vent, a house attached to Marivent Palace, in order to avoid encounters with other members of the royal family, such as the Marichalars and the Urdangarins. The vacation became a period of distancing, with each occupying their own room, with no intention of sharing plans or experiences.
Separate Agendas: A Growing Reality
Beyond the official events that require their joint presence, Felipe and Letizia have followed completely separate paths, with each focused on their own activities and responsibilities. While Felipe prepares to take part in the Sailing Cup competition with his boat ‘Aifos’, Letizia has returned to Paris to cheer on Spanish athletes in various disciplines, a gesture that could suggest a desire to move away.
Final Reflections on the Relationship
The recent actions of the kings seem to confirm the affirmative rumors about their relationship. With the growing distance between Felipe and Letizia, it becomes clear that the emotional connection that was once the foundation of their marriage is in a period of dissolution. The current situation invites reflection on the future of this relationship and the implications for the Spanish monarchy.
