Good point. She did have a long face during the ceremony.

She probably was

• embarrassed by her son's behavior.
• thinking of her own wedding and wishing her marriage would have turned out happier.
• wishing the rain would stop.

Are you joking - or is Infanta Elena experiencing problems in her marriage?

[nivek517]

She's fortunate to be married at all after the Duke of Lugo's stroke. He has made an amazing recovery - though he still has a limp and some right sided weakness. Even royal kids will be kids.....

I think is because he is her only brother and she loves him very much. Did you remember when Elena cry in the Olympic Games of Barcelona '92 when Felipe took the flag. It's the same.

There have been rumors for months about them having marriage problems. Of course no one knows but them if it's true.

I guess it is. They were not sitting close to each other, or looked at each other. Cristina and Inaki did and sat close to each other.

I feel sorry for Elena.

But why did Sofia and Elena wear the black veil and not Cristina??

Thanks for clearing that up for me - guess no rumours of unhappy marriage have been able to reach Denmark these last weeks

Letizia already left her boquet in Atocha and now the crowd is cheering them outside :flower:
