The great spring between Irene Urdangarin and her engineer cousin: once upon a time there was an exemplary relationship

Irene Urdangarin He turns 19 next week and his cousin is 25. Between them they are 44 years old (Ainhoa ​​Armentia’s age). With so much youth in tow, Juan Urquijo and Infanta Cristina’s youngest daughter must have looked at each other like two volcanoes about to erupt when they met again a few days ago in Madrid, after five months without seeing each other in person. “They are not dating, but they have a very special relationship and they were looking forward to sharing time together“, they qualify the magazine Hola from the circle of these two lovebirds. “They were looking forward to it,” reads the beginning of the sentence. “They want to take everything calmly,” they say later, as if blue-blooded people (so given to inbreeding) were endowed with a special power to better control will over desire, as if half of Irene’s genes Iñaki Urdangarin would not have put them in and a good part of his other half did not come from Juan Carlos de Borbón or the queen Isabel II of Spain, that of Sad Destinies.

No, human beings in general and the Bourbons in particular are not for self-control lessons. The History of the Bourbons is not exactly a manual of chastity, fidelity and long or fairy-tale relationships. And the instinct to conserve the species is probably to blame, among other things. Tell this to the student’s father, who has had four wonderful children to date. And let’s not say if we’re talking about the lineage that gives Irene her most bombastic last name. The holy man who courts her cousin, with Bourbon blood too, is like her the youngest of her family: youngest son of the businessman Lucas Urquijo Fernández de Araoz and Beatriz Moreno de Borbón-Dos Sicilias. Yes, they are an example of a family.

Irene is already preparing for her big private party. 19 years must be celebrated. And even more so if there is effervescent love. A dress, makeup, an organizing cousin in the style of Vitoria Federica and even a fun touch from the other cousin, the great Froilán, are just some of the ingredients necessary for an unforgettable day. It seems like yesterday but a year ago Irene Urdangarin He gathered his broken family in Geneva to mark his coming of age and the end of his international baccalaureate studies. We cannot forget that his father was relegated to the second row. in the middle of his ex-wife, Juan Carlos and Sofía, farther apart than the poles, and Infanta Elena, so far away from Marichalar for years.

But neither Victoria Federica nor Froilán (if she goes) will be the most anticipated at the party of this 19-year-old princess: the most desired will be his Juan Urquijo, who “will be at his side”, as he claims Hola, which in these cases is better than five sources of complete solvency. They have already had their moments, as proven by these images leaving, separately, an Italian restaurant in the Jerónimos neighborhood of Madrid, where they had lunch on Monday, May 27. The agronomist and his cousin Irene do not know each other thanks to Victoria’s pimp influencer Federica de Marichalar (who shared school with Juan in La Moraleja). They were Juan and MiguelIrene’s older brothers, who brought Juan closer to the little girl, although the lovebirds had known each other since they were children (although they looked at each other differently).

Her father will be able to advise her if she is going to study something related to business and if she studies Events she has her influencer cousin

After the volunteering break in Cambodia, The plans of the daughter of the former Duke of Palma involve building a future, lest it be that her maternal grandfather does not have an inheritance for her or is incapable of plugging her into some foundation that will pay her a fortune as he did with her mother or her father. Aunt Elena. Just in case she has to work (really) to earn a living, at the end of August, after a well-deserved vacation, Irene will move to the United Kingdom to pursue a career that will not be, as she had signed up, either hospitality or of fashion design. Studying there is worth an arm and a leg for her but she can afford it even if her father lives on ex-prisoner’s allowance or whatever. Mom or grandpa will send the money that is needed. The subject to learn, once hospitality is ruled out, will be a degree related to business and events. First of all, his father can teach him some lessons. And from the events, he has gained Heaven just by saying who he is. In England she will be protected: her brother Juan works in London with Alejandro Agag, Aznar’s son-in-law who did that wedding in El Escorial. And Miguel knows the environment well: he studied Oceanography at the University of Southampton.
