It was a Tuesday, January 18, almost a year ago, when we anticipated from Informalia what was to come: Iñaki Urdangarin had been caught in an affectionate attitude with a woman who wasn’t his own and a magazine was going to put those images on its cover the next day.
The day after publishing the news, indeed, the magazine Lectures published the report on the husband of the Infanta Cristina and father of her four children with the already well-known Ainhoa Armentia, the new love that the former handball player had found in Vitoria.
Everyone wanted to know since when Urdangarin and the Infanta Cristina led separate lives and the truth is that when we looked back we realized that in November 2021 we had seen them together as if nothing happened between them, that’s why no one has known if love ended first and later Iñaki rebuilt his life or vice versa.
Regardless of the chronology of the events in the marriage, there are two details that we must take into account to understand the tsunami that occurred in January. In December of last year, the former Dukes of Palma were in Baqueira skiing with their children and together they reflected absolute happiness.
In addition, both spent Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve accompanied by their children, even the Infanta Cristina could be seen sharing time with her husband’s family. Some images that reflected the good time they were supposedly having and nothing suggested that some photographs of him with another woman were going to break up their marriage days later, a marriage that formally continues. A year later, the Infanta Cristina and Iñaki Urdangarin spend this Christmas for the first time apart after all the controversies that they have staged during these months in all their public appearances.
