Juan Carlos I and his desire to be in the spotlight with the fondant cake and his banner: he wanted a cover and they gave it to him

This week has been for Juan Carlos I He wanted a cover and they gave him a cover. Saber in hand, in front of the fondant cake with its royal banner. Her 86th family birthday, flamenco and very Spanish, will be, above all, unforgettable. Abu Dhabi has a special flavor. It has been very clear to us. Those from the River brought a piece of Seville to the Emirates so that the emeritus king could have the birthday he deserved. And she had it. The image she posted Hola It opens our eyes and reveals to us a party that was private. That photo, like all the others that appear inside, were provided to the magazine. And consent is part of the nature of the transfer. In exchange for?

In exchange for interest. Once the paid exclusive has been ruled out, we move on to the stage of interest. What did Don Juan Carlos gain with this extensive report with cake, a real script, Los del Río, La Macarena and Victoria Federica recording with her cell phone? The visibility that he does not have in his self-exile from Abu Dhabi. Visibility is the second key. And what it has won is a cover that has taken up all the news tension of the week. The photograph of him, sword in hand, is a carry indisputable.

It so happened that his birthday event coincided, media speaking, with the debut of his granddaughter Leonor at Military Easter. This is not a coincidence. Don Juan Carlos's birthday is on January 5 and the military ceremony is on the 6th. I see no intention of counter-programming the Princess of Asturias. I see a clear vindictive intention on the part of the emeritus (third key) to make himself seen and show his script.

The skid

Don Juan Carlos's skid has been in that overexposure. Of having given up a family lodging, holding the arm of his two daughters; Had we shared a closer image with his grandchildren (and now), the informative impact would have been different. Lower, warmer. But the cake with the banner, his personal brand, his script perfectly replicated in fondant, that gave him the cover. And the saber. However, Don Juan Carlos did not measure the scope of that moment of visibility and went too far with his presentation. Hence the rain of criticism that has fallen on him. It doesn't seem serious to show off a royal symbol on a cake. We will see how he measures his next visits to Spain. Write down the magazine Hola that Don Felipe's father plans to spend the night in Zarzuela on his next visits to Madrid. We'll see.
