A romance full of controversy
Iñaki Urdangarin’s love life has been a real roller coaster of scandals and deceptions that have shaken the Spanish Royal House. Since he began his relationship with Infanta Cristina, his career was marked by dishonesty and infidelities, making him a constant center of media attention and a constant concern for the royal family.
Beginnings under a cloud of secrecy
The story between Iñaki and Cristina began under a veil of deception. Before meeting the infanta, Iñaki was in a relationship with Carmen Camí, a woman in his social circle. However, sources from El Mundo indicate that Urdangarin was simultaneously having an affair with another woman named Susana López.
As for Camí, he did not break up with her until his engagement to Cristina was announced, leaving her surprised when she found out through the media. Despite the situation, Carmen Camí said at the time that she did not hold a grudge against Iñaki and wished him the best. Later, Camí married Javier Pellón, a friend of Urdangarin.
A repetitive pattern of infidelities
Infidelities persisted throughout Iñaki’s life. According to El Mundo, he had an affair with a married woman, mother of two children and close friend of the couple. This relationship not only lasted several months, but also resumed years later, while Iñaki was married and in the midst of the Nóos Case scandal. The relationship between 2002 and 2003 demonstrates Iñaki’s tendency to maintain relationships outside of marriage even with people in his close environment.
Explosion of the Nóos Case and compromising revelations
The Nóos Case in 2012 revealed even more details about Urdangarin’s infidelities. Amid the corruption accusations, compromising messages came to light that exposed her unfaithful nature. Although Cristina always defended him publicly, the revealed messages showed Iñaki’s attempts to organize meetings with other women. Explicit and suggestive phrases such as ‘Tell me how you’re having dinner and fucking on Friday, because you won’t get rid of fucking’ came to light, reflecting Urdangarin’s true character.
Flirting in the family environment
Iñaki’s infidelities were not limited to his private life. Urdangarin also reportedly flirted with other mothers at his children’s school. The expert Maica Vasco affirms that this behavior reflects Iñaki’s chronic promiscuity, unable to resist temptations. This attitude became evident when he met Ainhoa Armentia at the law firm where he worked after leaving prison.
A relationship tested
The situation reached such a point that Infanta Cristina’s entourage insisted on multiple occasions that she get divorced. However, despite her constant infidelities and public humiliations, Cristina was reluctant to separate from her. According to various sources, she was willing to forgive everything if Iñaki returned to her side. The story between Infanta Cristina and Iñaki Urdangarin has been described as a mix of tragedy and comedy, a narrative of love and betrayal that continues to surprise many.
