Europa Press, en.edatv.news Now it's official: king Juan Carlos I breaks with everything and finally reveals the truth about king Felipe
The husband of Queen Sofía has taken the step of revealing what his relationship with his only son is really like
Don Juan Carlos I is once again in the media spotlight. Not because of his romantic or financial scandals, but this time because he has broken with everything and decided to reveal the truth. Specifically, what his relationship with his son, King Felipe, is really like.
He has confessed it in the memoirs he will publish next November. It's a book that won't leave anyone indifferent.
Don Juan Carlos I clearly reveals the situation with King Felipe
After learning that Iñaki Urdangarin will publish his autobiography, it has become known that Don Juan Carlos I will do the same. So, after numerous rumors, publisher Planeta has confirmed that his memoirs will see the light of day. It will be next November 12 and under the title Reconciliation.
On the occasion of this news, El País and ¡Hola! have interviewed Laurence Debray, the French author who helped him write his work. She, among other things, has revealed that the emeritus has decided to break with everything and reveal truths he had kept hidden.
Among the most striking topics he addresses, for example, is his current relationship with his son, King Felipe. It's a relationship that, until now, has been marked by institutional coldness, physical distance, and political decisions.
Despite everything, Debray has stated that Don Juan Carlos I is still his son's number one fan. Yes, even though Felipe VI withdrew his allowance, limited his schedule, and hasn't given in to pressure for his return to Spain, the emeritus supports him unconditionally.
Her exact words were these: "He's his number one fan. It's moving to see how he supports him and wants all his success." A phrase that, without a doubt, dismantles many of the narratives built around the supposed resentment of the emeritus toward his son.
That wasn't all, since Laurence Debray has also revealed a very significant fact: Don Juan Carlos I reads the Spanish press every morning. He does so with a clear interest: to know how King Felipe's work is valued. According to her own words, he feels proud to see how he manages the monarchy's future with determination.
That daily routine shows that, far from being disconnected from current events, the emeritus closely follows the evolution of his legacy. Although he doesn't express it publicly, he feels proud of his son's work at the head of the Crown.
A desired book, Don Juan Carlos I's, that will mark a turning point in the history of the monarchy
The publication of Don Juan Carlos I's memoirs will be a particularly strong impact. Yes, because it's not just a review of his reign, but a deep examination of his personal, family, and political relationships. Because, after years of silence and exile, his voice is once again at the forefront.
The book will also address such sensitive topics as his departure from Spain, financial scandals, and his health problems. Not forgetting his relationship with Franco and his role during the Transition.
With these memoirs, the emeritus breaks with the narrative of confrontation and proposes a more human and less political vision. It's a testimony that will open new debates about the king's role in the 21st century, Juan Carlos's legacy, and the stability of the institution. His goal is one and very clear: "He wants Spaniards to reconcile with their history."
