The former star arrived at Mediaset this Monday and she did it to stay. As we already mentioned, Barbara Rey He has signed a contract with the network for a six-figure amount in exchange for withdrawing the lawsuit he filed against them for his son’s statements, Angel Cristo Jr.calling her a blackmailer and a bad mother. The one from Totana will participate in several programs and the first has premiered in a special called ‘Bárbara Rey: my truth’. He has revealed new details about his relationship with Don Juan Carlos and has admitted, for the first time, having received money from the emeritus in exchange for delivering compromised material: “25 million pesetas and a series on TVE.”
At that time, Bárbara was already divorced from Ángel Cristo, she had to support her two children and had asked Felipe VI’s father to intercede for her to find work. However, not only did he not do it, according to Bárbara, but he was the ‘black hand’ that prevented her from continuing on television: “They told me that the king did not want me to work, but I had to pay the mortgage on the house, that they were going to take it away from me, and I had to pay for my children’s school,” she revealed through tears.
“Then I started recording and photographing it.” The end is already known to everyone: “Either they gave me money or I published it. Logically, I kept a part. They told me that they would give me 100 million pesetas and they made me a first payment of 25 million and a job at TVE. “They told me they had put it in a bank in Switzerland. They didn’t give me the rest. Afterwards, they tried to kill me.”
A state affair
The story, which was already revealed a couple of years ago in Risto Mejide’s chester, has gained nuances. Some sinister, like the house in which they met for the first time: “We arrived at El Pardo. The house was very sinister, very austere, very sad. Simply hello, so-and-so, a little bit of conversation and there was nothing more. And when his body asked him to, it didn’t take long, he took me by the hand and took me to the room,” he said. “The first day we had an intimate encounter, I expected him to be more affectionate… but that didn’t happen. Whatever sexual desires he might have, he satisfied them with me. I knew there was nothing more than that.” And he added: “He treated me like a whore.” He has also assured that Doña Sofía knew everything: “She knew her husband.”
Their meetings were regular and the king was so comfortable with her that he even held political conversations in her presence: “There was a telephone, I heard him talk many times… He talked about oil issues. I don’t know if they were commissions, he spoke a little in code. Do you understand me? I don’t know, I don’t think, I have no idea. I didn’t listen to the things he did with oil either. I hope that when they see this they don’t get me out of the way,” he reflected.
She has assured, among other things, that she could have become pregnant from the first day and that although being courted by the king at that time was considered a compliment, “now it would be called harassment.” “He never forced me, although sometimes I did it without feeling like it,” he confessed. He has spoken of gifts from Juan Carlos but has assured that he was not a generous man: “Once he left me 500,000 pesetas on my bedside table so that I could go to Germany to see my sister, who had been diagnosed with cancer.” Regarding the money he received from him, he states: “I wouldn’t call it blackmail, I would call it a loan and I would do it again.”
