I'd imagine that the King will not look back at 2012 in a fond light,I'm wondering too about his Christmas speech this year too!

An Ard Ri, probably little or nothing.
The press needs information during the holidays, and each invents something different. According to others, the Asturias had dinner on Christmas Eve with the family of the Princess and ate at Christmas with Borbon family. So the most basic details don´t match.

I've put this in the Xmas thread - was it confirmed who spent Christmas with who, or do we have a safe guess that the Palmas were there? I can easily imagine Juan Carlos not being around for Christmas at all and Sofia inviting the Palmas to get all grandkids together. On the other hand, I would imagine after his father died the Palmas would spend Xmas with Inakis mother. Who knows. I only read that the Palmas went to Zarzuela to celebrate Elena's birthday, but we dont know since nobody's photo can be taken.

It is confirmed that they have been in Zarzuela, and later they were to travel to visit Urdangarin family in Vitoria.
About who had dinner with who on Christmas Eve or had lunch on Christmas day... the press will do what they have done in recent years, each invent a different story to have a topic of controversy for several days.

Did Elena and her children spend Christmas day at Zarzuela? The Infanta Pilar hasn't gone there in a few years and now normally hosts her own Christmas dinner with her family.

They explained it last year, but many do not want to understand... and say how things were years ago.
Normally the Royal Family and the King's sisters and their families dined together on Christmas Eve at Zarzuela and then everyone would have lunch on Christmas Day with in-laws.
Infanta Pilar family began to grow, the sons married, had 9 grandchildren... and stopped going to dinner to Zarzuela. Infanta Elena divorced and she and her children spend both in Zarzuela. Urdangarín family went to live outside of Spain and then came the scandal Noos and changed their plans.
So now they have decided to have lunch together on Christmas Day at Zarzuela. Prince Felipe and girls going to see the King's message to Zarzuela and then return home for dinner with the family of the princess. And on Christmas Day they have lunch with the Royal Family.
