“Between you and me, I will be selfish, for me It’s very comfortable because as a queen she behaves wonderfully. “Besides, he’s holding on, he won’t go with anyone else.” A few words from the Emeritus King with which he made it clear that the relationship between him and Queen Sofia was broken. This is how he reveals it. ‘OKDIARIO’ in new audios published of conversations between Juan Carlos I and Bárbara Rey in which they comment on the relationship that the royal family couple had in the 90s.
