The news in the family war Fernando Fernandez Tapias They will come when in the coming days the opening of the will of the tycoon who died on October 25 at the age of 84 takes place. Not two weeks have passed since the death of the shipowner but the scandals and controversies continue, both with regard to the distribution of his fabulous inheritance and the war between his wife and the children of his previous marriages, and with regard to the alleged bad verbal treatment with which he addressed his wife.
The tension within the family is maximum. Let us remember that Real Madrid bodyguards prevented the eldest children of Fernández Tapias from entering the businessman’s cremation. On Friday, the testimony of a former employee of the former vice president of Real Madrid spoke of her relationship with Nuria González in these terms: “He was an animal and he treated her terribly,” he said, corroborating what was reported days ago by this digital. “You’re stupid, you shut up, you idiot,” are some of the literal phrases attributed to her. “She was a submissive. She was a despot, an animal,” repeated the witness, who confirmed that “the relationship between Fefé and Nuria was fatal, cold, nonexistent” and accused the shipowner of being “a despot with Nuria.”
“He was not the king of elegance”
The most lenient, of those who knew the true nature of Fefé’s treatment towards who is now his widow, agree that Tapias “was not the king of elegance” and affirm that “in private relationships he was not a gentleman in the world.” literal sense of the word when speaking”. People close to her, however, clarify that Nuria knew Fernando perfectly, and that “she did not give much importance to her words,” because she had known for many years that “he had a lot of character.”
All the witnesses questioned, except those who prefer to remain silent, confirm that “the manners were not normal” and that “the way of speaking to his wife was habitual.” In fact, as we anticipated days ago, the marriage went through “a serious crisis” ten years ago, so much so that Fefé prepared the divorce papers, although in the end he did not put it into action.
A very broken and very touched family, but 3,000 million at stake
Other sources consulted, familiar with Nuria González’s day-to-day life, doubt that she would accept her husband’s ways that have now been made public. For now, the widow has not spoken despite the seriousness of the accusations leveled against the deceased businessman, and that silence says a lot.
In parallel to the story about Fefé’s ways, the lawyer for the shipowner’s older children assures that they cried when they were separated and could not see their father. During the businessman’s life, we experienced the Fernández Tapias trial as a family war over money, a colossal fortune that some estimate at around three billion euros. Some of the supposed unknowns will be cleared up in the coming days, when the will is opened and Tapias’ conditions and wishes are made known. Let us remember that Fefé was partially incapacitated after a dispute with his older children, whom he removed from his companies. His wife, in matters of health, and Florentino Pérez, In commercial and corporate matters, they were appointed guardians, although the president of Real Madrid resigned and another person trusted by Tapias was appointed.
The origin of this lawsuit between the eldest children was based on the plaintiffs’ argument, according to which Fernández Tapias was acting against them because, allegedly, Nuria Fernández encouraged Tapias to make negative decisions to do so.
Regarding inheritance and assets, there are two versions that correspond to the two opposing parties: there are criticisms against Nuria, especially testimonies from the eldest children. The lawyer for the eldest children of Fernández Tapias announces ‘war’: “They have suffered an ordeal, his father did not separate them from his side,” he said. Iria, Fernández Tapias’ favorite granddaughter, joined the family war: “Now the whole truth will be known,” she warned. And other sources that point to Fernández Tapias as the ‘intellectual author’ of the war against his own older children, whom he decided to deprive of all benefits after knowing that they were trying to disqualify him: “It is not Nuria who refuses to let you enter the house, It’s me,” Fefé even stated at the trial, according to some sources. Nuria González, in her few comments, has defended herself and stopped Fernández Tapias’ children: “He left everything written and well tied up,” she said. We may know more this week if the will is opened.
