A New Fact About the Royalty's Past Shakes the Foundations and Promises to Create Impact Inside and Outside the Palace
The Spanish royal family has been one of the most watched in the world, both for their work and their private life. Stories of relationships within the monarchy have always sparked great interest. However, beyond what is shown to the public, there are aspects that remain hidden from royal followers.
The Marivent Palace in Mallorca witnessed many royal visits, which were presented as a typical summer stay. However, the dynamics that occurred within its walls were not always as idyllic as the images projected to the public. The relationship between the members of the Spanish royal family and the British royal family had moments of great closeness, but also of hidden tensions.
The Secret Relationship Between Diana and Juan Carlos I
One of the most talked-about episodes of those stays was the relationship between Juan Carlos and Diana of Wales. While Charles of Wales was away, Diana and the Spanish king shared several moments in which, according to some, a mutual attraction arose. "He's a womanizer. I know it's absurd, but I'm sure he likes me. He's flirted, even in front of the queen," Diana confessed to her bodyguard, Ken Wharfe.
Princess Diana, who felt increasingly distant from her husband, found closer companionship in Juan Carlos. Although both always appeared friendly in front of photographers, their private encounters revealed a much more complex relationship. Despite the differences that existed between them, Diana and the Spanish king's interaction intensified during those summers in Mallorca.
The Impact of Parallel Relationships
Throughout those summers, both Diana and Juan Carlos experienced parallel relationships that marked their lives. While Diana had her romance with James Hewitt, King Juan Carlos maintained his own circle of friends in Mallorca, such as his friend Marta Gayá. Although rumors of a relationship with Diana were always present, the king never confirmed it, and Queen Sofía remained aware of the events with a reserved attitude.
Juan Carlos's behavior and his frequent relationships were a point of tension in his marriage. Despite numerous criticisms and media pressure, the royal family continued to present a united front in public, while private dynamics remained a topic of speculation.
The Great Secret Between King Juan Carlos and Diana of Wales
During the summers at Marivent, Juan Carlos and Diana shared more than just protocol meetings. In his book "Juan Carlos I: The King of 5000 Lovers," retired Colonel Amadeo Martínez Inglés recounts the king's romances. The book reportedly details the romance with Diana.
Kitty Kelly, in the publication of the book about the Windsors, mentions that the king sent $45,000 to Diana. This would have happened the same year of her death. This gesture has been interpreted as support in a difficult time.
This loan came after an attempted blackmail was discovered in which Diana was involved. According to the author, Diana's gym owner installed cameras to extort her, and she turned to the king for help. Although Diana never admitted it, these events indicate a more complicit relationship between her and Juan Carlos than previously thought.
