“Teeth, teeth, what’s bothering them,” he whispered. Isabel Pantoja to the mayor Julian Muñoz when they were clandestine lovers and the weight of Justice and shame had not yet fallen on them. Kiko Rivera’s mother was referring to the mayor of Marbella smiling in the street so that they could see how happy they were and thus demonstrate that they were happy in the face of the media hurricane that was bearing down on them.
Long before that phrase became famous, after the tonadillera was betrayed by one of those open microphones, in Zarzuela the image and propaganda teams had already taught Doña Sofía for decades to show a good face in public.

While Infantas Cristina and Elena prepare to welcome the New Year in Abu Dhabi with their father, King Emeritus Juan Carlos I, Queen Sofia’s daughters continue to show their closeness to their mother. Far from the recent controversies surrounding Don Juan Carlos and Bárbara Rey, Doña Sofía remains focused on enjoying good times with her family.
This Saturday, the queen emeritus was seen very animated at a handball game played by her grandson Pablo Urdangarin. Accompanied by Infanta Cristina, Sofía did not stop smiling and showing her support from the stands.

On that occasion, it was Infanta Cristina who accompanied her son along with her brother Miguel and Johanna Zott, Miguel’s girlfriend, with whom they shared an afternoon full of complicity.

Although Infantas Cristina and Elena will spend the holidays far from Spain, there is no doubt that Queen Sofía continues to be the fundamental pillar that unites her children and grandchildren. For now, Doña Sofía continues to demonstrate that her priority is family values and the well-being of her people, staying out of the controversies that may arise around the emeritus king. A figure who, with her example, continues to earn the affection and respect of those who observe her in her closest and most maternal role.
