The court of first instance and instruction 3 of La Bisbal d’Empordà ordered last Friday to investigate the death of the presumed brother of Felipe VI. Carlota Corredera read live the results of the preliminary autopsy report.
According to the document, the death of the 66-year-old man was caused by an acute myocardial infarction. However, Albert’s family does not rule out requesting a second autopsy given the strange circumstances surrounding his sudden death.
The friends of Albert Solà with whom the alleged son of the king emeritus spent his last hours assure that the Catalan was in perfect condition and that there was nothing to suspect that his death was imminent.
Added to this are the images from the bar’s security cameras. In the video of that day, it is seen how they turn half an hour before Albert’s death and, a few minutes after his death is certified, the manager of the premises puts the camera back in its place.
From his childhood to how he found out about his supposed origin
On August 16, 1956 Albert Solà He was abandoned in a hospice in Barcelona. During his early years, he went from family to foster family until finally it was the Solà Jiménez who adopted him to raise and care for him.
Throughout his growth, Albert had certain attentions and privileges that he never knew how to explain: “When I lived in Ibiza with my first parents, a very elegant lady came to see me, always dressed in a suit jacket and skirt, she brought me gifts (. ..) When I was with my parents, from time to time I received very expensive gifts that my parents clearly could not afford, they bought me a new car when my father had never had one, he used third-hand cars, my parents did not have resources to give me those whims, I don’t know where they would get it”.
According to Solà, that lady who visited him was the mother of the king emeritus, his presumed grandmother, who would have known of the paternity of her son before he met the woman who would be his wife, the Queen Sofia.
Some time later, the Catalan waiter began with the investigations into his origin and it would be a judge who would recognize Solà that the king emeritus was his biological father. From there, the legal battle began that did not come to fruition for him. The Supreme Court rejected a paternity lawsuit that he filed in 2015 and was also unsuccessful with the subsequent appeal that he filed in the Constitutional Court.
The Catalan passed away last Saturday, October 8, after a lifetime trying to answer the big question about his true origin: “I have lost more than I have gained. In the family environment, in the economic environment… It is something that I will never recover. Will it be worth it? I leave it in the air, “he said then in the interview that the Telecinco program did to him months before he died.
