A headache. The assistance of Don Juan Carlos y Mrs. Sofia Isabel II’s funeral next Monday 19 is an informative powder keg. In the funeral of the monarch we will see the first image of the emeritus in an official and state act. There will also be her son, Philip VI. An uncomfortable photograph that is already the most anticipated and the most avoided since the withdrawal of Juan Carlos I from public life in 2019. To answer all questions about the protocol to be followed that day, the Casa del Rey takes off a weight of above when transferring that hot potato to the British Royal House. This has been made known with a brief note in which they inform that they will adapt “logically” to the “protocol criteria, organizational decisions and logistical instructions adopted by the British authorities in their capacity as responsible for the development of the acts”. That is to say, they get out of the way in this thorny matter.
It must be remembered that this Monday the 12th, the House reported that the Embassy of Spain in the United Kingdom received a verbal note from the British Foreign Office in which the invitations to the funeral for the Queen isabel II.
“The invitations are addressed to the heads of state and former heads of state and wives or husbands of said countries,” the note continued, so the call was extended to the parents of Felipe VI.
After the King and Queen officially confirmed their attendance, Don Juan Carlos and Doña Sofia also accepted, as published The world. The invitation to the emeritus and their subsequent confirmation was interpreted by the House as a “personal decision”. I mean, they also got out of the way.
