Don Juan Carlos and Doña Sofía reappear together in Westminster to watch over Elizabeth II: the reunion of the emeritus

Before attending the state reception that offers Charles III at Buckingham Palace, the emeritus kings, Mr. Juan Carlos y Mrs. Sofiahave gone together to the chapel of Westminster, where a wake is Isabel II.

Their Majesties had already done it before Philip VI y Joy, who had an appointment at 4:10 p.m. local time. The King and Queen of Spain arrived in the British capital on Sunday in an Armed Forces plane that landed at 1:00 p.m. (local time) at the Northolt military base.

Traveling with them was Doña Sofía, who as soon as she got off the plane had gone to the hotel where she will stay with Don Juan Carlos, who arrived in London directly from Abu Dhabi. Since his announced retirement from public life, on May 27, 2019, Don Juan Carlos did not attend official acts. However, his confirmed attendance at the state funeral of Queen Elizabeth II has brought him back to active life.

For more than obvious reasons, the photograph of Don Juan Carlos with his son, daughter-in-law and, of course, Doña Sofía, is the most anticipated, at least in our country. It is an uncomfortable picture and the most avoided since Don Juan Carlos left for Abu Dhabi.
