Philip VI (56 years old) and Infanta Cristina (59) have become the unwitting protagonists of the Victoria López-Quesada’s wedding (27) and Enrique Moreno of the Covawhich was held last Saturday, August 31st. The king and his sister took center stage when they were seen arriving together at the wedding, in the same car driven by the monarch. An image that, with the family pose of “yes, I do”, broadcast on the night of this Sunday, September 1st, leaves proof of a approach between the sovereign and the middle daughter of the emeritus.
The fact that they arrived together at the wedding has already set off all the alarms. But the photo released a day later is much more striking, since it is the First pose of King Felipe and Infanta Cristina after six years. It should be noted that it did not take place as part of an institutional event, but rather as part of a private and family event.
In the image in question, taken by photographer Bibiana Fierro, the entire López-Quesada family poses, with the newlyweds in the center and Felipe VI, standing next to the bride. In another row, seated, are the infantas Helen (60 years old) and Cristina and the Queen Sofia (85).
