The Promising Career in Marine Sciences and the Move to Madrid

Born on April 30, 2002, Miguel Urdangarin Borbón has always been linked to the media spotlight, although he has avoided starring in it. Unlike his siblings Pablo and Irene, who are much more exposed, Miguel has cultivated a low profile. This year, however, on the occasion of his 23rd birthday, his figure has resurfaced, but not by chance.

Graduated in Marine Sciences from the prestigious University of Southampton, at the National Oceanography Center (NOCS), Miguel has established himself as a young man with scientific vocation and environmental commitment. His passion for the sea is not a mere hobby: it is part of his identity. After closing that academic chapter, he has embarked on another equally significant: his entry into the working world.

Since finishing his studies, Miguel has moved between Switzerland and Spain. He first did unpaid internships in Madrid, at a company related to his field of study. Then, he spent some time abroad, but he has finally returned to settle in the Spanish capital.

This decision was not random: Madrid allows him to be close to his loved ones, especially his grandmother, Queen Sofía. But if there is a key reason behind this choice, it is Olympia Beracasa.

A Discreet Love Story with Olympia Beracasa

Miguel and Olympia have known each other for years. They met in the classrooms of the prestigious international school Ecolint, in Switzerland, and although their paths separated, fate brought them back together in Madrid. It was there that something more than friendship emerged, a deep feeling, which today has transformed into a stable relationship.

For some time now, it has been evident that Olympia has become his great support. The relationship is progressing steadily, though without haste. Both have preferred to take the necessary time to strengthen their bonds, away from spotlights and headlines.

Their surroundings couldn't be more satisfied. Miguel is already one more in the Beracasa family, and Olympia has also found her place among the Urdangarin. An example of this is the naturalness with which they share everyday moments.

But Miguel's case is not isolated in his family. The new generation of the Urdangarin Borbón seems to have found a very different balance from that experienced by their parents. Both Johanna Zott, Pablo's partner, and Juan Urquijo, Irene's boyfriend, are perfectly integrated into the family environment.

Passions, Talents, and a Recent Scare: This Is Miguel Urdangarin's Day-to-Day Life

The nephew of Felipe VI keeps an active life. Although he resides in Madrid, he doesn't give up his sports passions, especially water sports. Sailing and surfing remain his favorite activities, although he also practices skiing.

In fact, in 2024 he took a ski instructor course in Switzerland, an experience that was interrupted by an injury to his right knee. He was successfully operated on and is currently fully recovered.

Music is another of his great hobbies. Since he was little, he has taken piano lessons and, during his school years, even offered some recitals. These details, although little known, allow for a better understanding of his character: methodical, serene, and far from any excess.

Miguel Urdangarin turns 23, consolidating a professional and personal life that reflects maturity, discretion, and stability. With the support of Infanta Cristina and surrounded by a strong emotional environment, the young man has charted a path away from the media spotlight, but full of meaning. Are we witnessing a new Borbón generation that bets on tranquility and discretion?
