Trust is good, control is better: Spain’s old king Juan Carlos I is said to have commissioned investigations into his daughter-in-law Letizia.
Madrid – When the Spanish Crown Prince Felipe (53) and the journalist Letizia Ortiz (49) announced their engagement in November 2003, the surprise was great and the curiosity even greater. Not only her compatriots and the international press wanted to know who the woman at Felipe’s side was. The then regent Juan Carlos I (83) is said to have been very interested in Letizia’s past.
A new book about the Spanish royal family is currently causing an uproar in Queen Letizia’s homeland. In his work “Al servicio de su majestad” (Eng: “In the service of His Majesty”) the investigative journalist Fernando Rueda sheds light on the connections between the royals and the Spanish secret service CNI (Centro Nacional de Inteligencia). As reported by Vanitatis magazine, Juan Carlos I in particular plays a major role. At the beginning of Felipe and Letizia’s relationship, he is said to have tasked the secret service with finding out details about the private life of his future daughter-in-law.

According to Vanitatis, Letizia is not the first partner the secret service is said to have produced a report. Before the journalist entered Felipe’s life, the then heir to the throne was in a relationship with the model Eva Sannum (46) for almost five years. The Norwegian was probably also in the crosshairs of the secret service. * 24royal.de is an offer from IPPEN.MEDIA.
