Many people regard Queen Letizia, who is frequently praised in the highest terms, to be a superwoman. Beautiful, poised, humble, and interested in all events, she is the wife of the Spanish monarch, mother to the heir to the throne, and a style icon who sets fashion trends. The Spanish public, however, did not always want her to be with Felipe.
Letizia Ortiz Rocasolano carried on the family history by pursuing a profession in journalism before to ascending to the throne as Queen Letizia. She reported on the most significant events of the day for television networks, including Spanish national television. She had no idea that one day her life would change and she would be on the other side of the camera and the center of attention for the media.
It has been said that she made offensive comments regarding the monarchy during a debate in her journalism career, for which ardent monarchy fans have never forgiven her. Furthermore, Letizia’s previous marriage and her lack of royal lineage meant that conservatives opposed the marriage as soon as Letizia and Felipe announced their engagement in 2003.
Both the student and the teacher
The stunning queen obviously had a life before she met her present spouse. She was seventeen when she fell in love with Alonso Guerrero Pérez, her professor, who was ten years older. A teacher and a pupil were forbidden to be in love, especially given their age differences.
They paid no attention to the biases. Before opting to make their relationship legal, they were together for an entire ten years. In 1998, they made that move by getting married in a civil ceremony. But it was only in place until the next year. Following that, Letizia reconnected with her prince over dinner with a coworker, and the palace she had previously visited on business became her new home.
The fact that Letizia had been married before disturbed King Juan Carlos and Queen Sofía, but it did not stop their son. He was going to battle for his love, and he won.
At sixty-two years old, Alonso Guerrero Pérez is a well-known, multiple-award winning writer and lecturer who has written a large number of essays, literary criticisms, and newspaper pieces. In addition, he is a novelist. He has never spoken about his previous relationship and has never granted interviews, despite the fact that his name is frequently associated in the media with the title “ex-husband of the Spanish queen.”
He’s found happiness with someone else as well. Following Letizia, he wed María Dolores Corral, a high school classmate, and their union is still going strong, as far as is known.
