Recently, it was revealed that Queen Sofia might be concealing something that her son, King Felipe VI, reportedly found annoying. The monarch is said to respect his mother excessively and hold her in high regard, but recently, there have been rumors that he has been slightly irritated by her over a minor detail.
The possibility of Juan Carlos I’s temporary return to Spain was reported in the media last week. King Felipe VI would have learned of this knowledge from Spanish sources. Queen Sofia, however, had known for a long time and had not told anyone in his family.
This angered King Felipe VI, who felt betrayed by his mother after years of demonstrating his love and dedication to her. Because of her quiet and collected nature, Queen Sofia refrained from speaking in order to head off any potential issues.
Several media outlets claim that Queen Sofia requested a private audience with Juan Carlos I without even telling her son. However, it was revealed by insiders close to the royal family that King Felipe VI felt betrayed.
Many Spanish royal specialists assert that Juan Carlos I was involved in this “betrayal” since he might have instructed Queen Sofia to keep quiet and not inform anybody about his visit, a strategy that was derailed when news of his visit to Sanxenxo leaked out to the local press.
