they both look great. thanks for the photos. am i the only 1 who thinks he's the best looking of all the consorts? he just gets more handsome every year, and you can tell by looking at them they adore each other (explains all those children lol)

Yes, they do make a handsome couple. And they look so happy together and in love even after... how many... 6 or 7 years. I also notice in many pictures they seem to be laughing together. I wonder if they have a good sense of humor. I personally think that helps a relationship a lot... to sometimes not take things too seriously.

They have been married for over 8 years and they always have a great time together and with their children, have you seen the easter holiday pictures?, that shows you how do they spend their time as a family, their marriage is very solid and he's said to be still very much in love with her (right M? )

Oh, 8 years, even more impressive. They look like newlyweds in love. Yes, I saw all the Easter holiday pics. They're fantastic! You really get a glimpse into their personal lives a bit. I had no idea they were good friends with Rosario and Kyril of Bulgaria. I wonder if they're personal friends with the rest of the Bulgarian royal family, especially since most of them live in Spain I think.

Yes, Kubrat is Pablo's godfather (Pablo is their second son) and the rest of the Bulgarian is very close because Queen Margarita is related to Infanta Pilar (the King's elder sister) so they are very good friends and you'll always see the Bulgarian Princes with their wifes in the SRF celebrations

The Dukes of Palma have taken advantage of the Easter vacations to organize the movings to their new home, located in the Pedralbes (Barcelona).

Taking advantage of their trip to Palma de Mallorca, they left their four children there and returned to Catalonia, to prepare the last details of the moving. During that weekend, all the equipments were transferred from the appartment where they have lived until now to the new house, located in a property of 1200 square meters. The house includes three floors, with 700 square meters of inhabitable surface and it is located in a landscaped zone, which comprises a tennis court and a private swimming pool.

Back to Barcelona after the vacations, Infanta Cristina, her husband, Iñaki Urdangarín, and their children were finally settled in their new home. Although there are still some details to take care of, the house is ready and the family can live with total normality. The only disadvantage is the presence of numerous workers, who are still finishing the last ones details in the house, which was constructed in 1950 and now completely reformed by the Dukes of Palma de Mallorca, to adapt it to their tastes and necessities.

Urdangarín leaves the Nóos Institute

After the controversy invoice Balearic and to the Consell the private organization received 3.6 million by three forums on economic impact of the sport the husband of Infant Cristina, Iñaki Urdangarín, has resigned to the presidency of the Nóos Institute of Strategic Studies of Sponsorship in Patronage, an organization deprived with seat in Barcelona and that in the last years has invoiced to public institutions to organize minicongresses of reflection on the social incidence, enterprise and economic of the phenomenon of the great sport events.
The march of the Duke of Palm takes place after the controversial surroundings to two editions of the Valencia Summit jumped to the arena (in 2004 and 2005), by which the Nóos Institute received of the Generalitat and the City council of Valencia 2.4 million euros. That invoicing, by consisting of forums several conferences during four days, motivated a battery of questions of autonomic deputy socialist Jeannette Segarra, who asked for in Valencian Cortes the complete relation of expenses by these events. Segarra described exactly like "shameful" that in each one of the Summits was spent 1.2 million, the same amount that the Generalitat has destined all the sport federations.

I guess Peñafiel is satisfied now

I guess Peñafiel is satisfied now

In it Peñafiel has had little that to see. Really the problem has been more serious than a rumor invented by corsets.
The problem was of political type raised by a political party and that was concerning the public money of the citizens. It was the most serious of the matter that the topic was related to public funds.
Though neither clear, to the topic there helped the information about the new housing of the Dukes of Palm, a housing with a lot of polemic since anybody deals since can pay it. Really Urdangarín's work and sun slightly dark, nobody knows to that he devotes himself really .... whereas the whole world knows that they do Marichalar, or the Infantas Elenas and Cristina the life to be gained.

 

[monica]

believe that in iñaki and Cristina we have a good example of what should be a family that by belonging to the CR they have a life publishes.

Urdangarin is stupendous. I understand that perhaps in the business in which has been put has been able to be seen favored by being who is, but really, the one that exercise a public office seems me well.

If did not work him would put green; if works and charges for its work, also.

I wonder if I could have some clarification on this subject as I don't think I've understood the various translations.

Why was Inaki forced to resign from this position exactly? Was it because some people thought that he received favourtism for being the King's son in law? Or because he used used his role as the King's son in law to get the position? In the end it had nothing to do with his actual abilities to do the job but merely because of his ties to the royal family right?

And this was an actual job and not just a committee or organization that Inaki chose to participate in out of personal interest right? If it was a paying job, then what does Inaki do now to help support his family financially?

And what does the organization have to say about Inaki's resignation?
