These two weeks have given so much. The King competed in two regattas, he won his fourth European championship of the 6M sailing discipline, and received a visit from his sons, the king Philip VIthe Infanta Cristina and the Infanta Elena, her sister, the Infanta Margarita, her nieces, María Zurita and Simoneta Gómez – Acebo, and also her biographer, Laurence Debray.

Don Juan Carlos landed in Peinador on the afternoon of Monday 23 September, going almost unnoticed, and what he expected as the culmination of the process of normalizing his presence in Spain seemed to go wrong on Wednesday 25 with the publication, in a Dutch newspaper, of photographs of his intimate relationship with Barbara Rey 30 years ago.

Photographs have been added unreleased audiofor which there has been no official evaluation by Casa Real. Putting the institution and the family before a controversy that has acquired an international dimension seems to have been his subliminal response.

Family reunion

the king Philip VI, Queen Letizia and Princess Leonor They shared with him the afternoon of Friday 27 September at the Marino Naval School and on Monday 30 September he received a visit from his eldest daughter. It was the first time that the Infanta Cristina had visited him in Sanxenxo since the king had left Spain.

More photographs and more audio The expectation was created to know Don Juan Carlos’ reaction to its publication, but the King did not change his agenda except due to the weather.

A strong storm prevented him from competing this Saturday. The last test was not held, but Bribón, until then leader of the competition, He automatically revalidated his world champion title.

Always accompanied by Pedro Campos, 17-time sailing world champion, Don Juan Carlos did not miss his traditional visit to the D’Berto Seafood Store, located in the O Grove Town Hall of Pontevedra, on this trip. This same Saturday at eight in the afternoon, escorted by his crew, his daughter Infanta Elena and his granddaughter Simoneta Gómez – Acebo, he participated in the awards ceremony of the 6M European Championship which took place during a crowded dinner at the Real Club Nautico.

Surrounded by sailors, almost 300 of them, Don Juan Carlos bids farewell to Galicia. We could only ask him about sailing. “My father was a sailor, I am a sailor“, Don Juan Carlos repeated on numerous occasions to his inner circle. The next sporting event for Bribón in Sanxenxo is in mid-November.

The triumph of the scoundrel

The Cantabrian Jane Abascal, one of the crew members of the Bribón, a ship led by King Juan Carlos, expressed this Saturday her satisfaction at having conquered the Jacobean Trophy, which put the continental title of the 6 meter class up for grabs. “We had a pretty difficult week, but it was also very complete. I think the committee was very successful in running the races and taking risks when they had to take risks. We are very happy with the victory,” he stressed.

“We always go out on the water trying to be at the top and consistent. We have the advantage of being a fairly competitive boat in all wind conditions, and I think this is the key in multi-day championships,” explained his teammate Roi Álvarez.

In total, the crew of Don Juan Carlos has accumulated two partial victories, three second places, a fourth and an eighthwhich he discarded thanks to the discard, which allowed him to become champion of the Xacobeo Trophy and of Europe in the Classic division with one point ahead of the Finnish boat Astree III, owned by Ossi Paija.
