Short on words and blunt. It is the image that Iñaki Urdangarin has shown us over the years. More so in recent months, after serving a sentence for the Nóos case and after breaking up with Infanta Cristina. A divorce that was finalized this January after two years of separation with a public infidelity visible to the whole world: Iñaki walked his love with Ainhoa Armentia on the beaches of Spain. Well, now the former Duke of Palma has spoken. “I am divorced and I have no convictions”, has said. The magazine publishes it on its cover Week.
More extroverted than ever and open to letting off steam, Urdangarin has claimed his space: “I want to be a normal person, with a normal life, enjoy my children and my freedom.” His meeting with the former son-in-law of Juan Carlos I took place on a street in Vitoria, where he has established residence with his girlfriend.
“I don’t want to be photographed or asked,” he continued. “I no longer have to explain anything”; and he has distanced himself from the Royal Family when he emphatically stated: “I am no longer part of that.” That They are the Bourbons. “I want to be an anonymous person and enjoy my life,” he told the magazine.
The former handball player’s life took a turn at the beginning of this month when his sentence of five years and ten months in prison for crimes of prevarication, embezzlement, bribery and influence peddling related to the Nóos case concluded. He will have his criminal record expunged within five years, provided he does not commit another crime. The end of Iñaki’s sentence was the injection of encouragement for him to begin living a new stage with Armentia, with whom he has been dating at least since January 2022, the date on which his relationship came to light.
The former duke’s income: 463 euros of unemployment benefit
