The Spanish royal family is apparently in a difficult situation right now because Queen Sofia is reportedly having health issues at the royal house while Emeritus King Juan Carlos I has traveled to Sanxenxo. A source close to the royal family also confirms that King Felipe VI is quite concerned about his mother.
Strong arguments with Iaki Urdangarin, who is assumed to have been pursuing the Infanta Cristina, his former girlfriend, were reported by the press while the mother of King Felipe VI was in Mallorca for Easter week and where her health started to suffer. Even King Felipe VI had to step in and order the subject removed from the area.
Queen Sofia, for her part, has chosen to keep quiet about her issues in order to stop rumors from spreading that could make the situation worse. As a sign of the close relationship between the monarch and her son, King Felipe VI has taken action in this case because he is worried about his mother’s health.
