"Reconciliation" (2024): Memoirs of King Juan Carlos I


If you have answers, please help by responding to the unanswered posts.
King Juan Carlos wants to move forward with the project. He must be trying to clean up his image with this book and the court cases.
I think its a little too late for him to salvage his reputation and he should stay out of sight incase there are any more skeletons in his closet!
 
The former king is desperate to clean up his bad press, that he is solely responsible for, because he probably feels the end is coming soon as his age and conditions catch up with his health.

As a Spaniard abroad since the 1980s, I stopped caring for him after the trip to Botswana set up by his mistress to kill poor elephants for photo ops next to their lifeless bodies. I'm glad he rescued us from Franco and its supporters twice, but as the father figure of our nation I would have preferred his well-known scandals had stopped decades ago. He became arrogant and almost destroyed everything he built, and Felipe inherited this mess.

That book will probably be excuses and more excuses with absolutely no acknowledgement of his behavior, or the children born out of other women, his infidelities toward the queen, his money schemes. Etc.
There's no digital ink that can cover that up.
 
I look forward to the book (if it will be distributed in english).

Not that i have much sympathy for the man but he is an interesting figure in european royal history and i’m curious what he will write… Especially about his days as Franco’s heir and the early days of his kingship… And ofcourse about the ”intriguing” (in lack of a better word) marriage to his wife
