And he was not the only one, because the Madrid mayor changed the well-known engagement ring for a fantastic brooch vintage style that belonged to his family. Teresa Urquijo (27), for her part, maintained the tradition and entertained her future husband with a high-end watch.

It is owned by the bride's grandmother and will also be the setting where the wedding will be held. the wedding next April 6. Among those invited to the wedding there will be well-known faces from the world of aristocracy and politics. The emeritus, cousin of the bride's grandmother, has also received his invitation although it is not likely that he will attend.

The Madrid mayor has spoken on several occasions and with great humor about the details: “The tables are a complicated and difficult situation but I hope that people put the good news of a wedding above it.” He is overwhelmed but happy: “It is a very important day and I think it is a long-awaited day, but since I have talked about derbies, we are going game by game. There are three months left, there is a lot to do.”
