Shock for Julio Iglesias: his son, Enrique Iglesias, has already made the decision

In recent hours, news has emerged that could have impacted Julio Iglesias. His son, Enrique Iglesias, has already made a momentous decision: he's returning to the stage in Spain after more than five years away. The desired reunion with the Spanish audience will take place on July 5 at Estadio de Gran Canaria, as part of Granca Live Fest.

This news has had a major impact among his fans and within the artist's own family circle. Enrique, who has lived in the United States for years and stayed away from the Spanish spotlight, is making a grand return with a unique show in Europe. What has motivated this highly symbolic comeback for Julio Iglesias's son?

Enrique Iglesias surprises Julio Iglesias by deciding to perform again in Spain

More than five years have passed since Enrique Iglesias last performed in his home country. It was in December 2019, when he gave a massive concert at Movistar Arena in Madrid. That show brought together more than 15,000 people and was an emotional journey through all his hits, marking a milestone before his long silence in Spain.

Now, at 50 years old and with a consolidated international career, Julio Iglesias's son is returning in a different context. Leo Mansito, the event's promoter, has confirmed the magnitude of this event in an interview with El Español: "Enrique Iglesias is coming with a current show. We're very grateful that he chose us," he said.

The businessman also emphasized that this is his only concert in Europe during 2025. "It's a pleasure because it's the first concert he's giving in Spain in years and the only one he'll give in Europe," he explained. This makes his presence in Gran Canaria an unrepeatable event of enormous symbolic value for the artist's fans and his family.

This concert isn't just a high-level musical event. For many, it's also a chance to reconnect with a figure who has always kept a discreet relationship with his country. Although his music has continued to play, his physical presence had faded.

The discreet life of Enrique Iglesias far from Spain, his family, and the media spotlight

Enrique Iglesias has built his life far from the media spotlight. For years, he has lived in Miami with his partner, former tennis player Anna Kournikova, and their three children: Nicholas, Lucy, and Mary. He rarely shares personal details on social media, and his public appearances are few, even at family events.

An example of this was his notable absence from his sister Tamara Falcó's wedding to Íñigo Onieva, one of the most high-profile events. Enrique has stated on several occasions his desire to keep his family's privacy and his private life above any exposure.

However, his return to Spain last November to collect two awards at Los40 Music Awards was an exception that drew attention. There, he was honored as Global Icon for his ability to adapt to musical trends and as Best Latin Collaboration. A brief but significant visit that foreshadowed what is now a reality: his return to the Spanish stage.

The desired return of Enrique Iglesias to the stage in Spain, after more than five years, marks a personal and professional milestone full of symbolism. It's not surprising that Julio Iglesias feels especially moved by this highly significant decision by his son. An unrepeatable event that reopens the connection between Enrique and the Spanish audience.
