“I don’t know why they say the opposite (their allegedly bad relationship). I talk to my relatives, but between one being in Wales and the other at the military academy, you don’t have much time either, but I have a relationship with them. If I want, I will send them a WhatsApp message and they will reply,” he commented.

What happens inside Zarzuela Palace

Leonora’s first wife assured that visits to the Zarzuela Palace had something special because of the protocol that had to be followed. He discovered that you can go by vehicle and follow the staff’s instructions from there.

“You only have to hand over your identity card upon entry. They give you a sign, it depends on the color, and if you are an important person in the government, for example, they give you a sign of a different color than the one given to families. A small sign goes in the car so the guards can see it. They don’t hang it on you, or anything. Then I go to my aunt’s house like you can do,” he said, according to Week.

Points of interest in Zarzuela Palace

Among the interesting things he experienced in the palace, Vigo highlighted the etiquette observed during meals.

“In Zarzuela you can see unusual things. The most interesting thing is about the cutlery in the movies, which is true, there is a lot of cutlery and you have to know what it is for. They teach you how to use them, you have to go from right to left. “My aunt is very strict with her food, she eats rarely, without fat,” he commented.

Likewise, he indicated that when he wants to visit the palace, he must announce himself in advance so that everything is prepared according to the rules of the royal house.

The pressure of fame

Carla admitted that she gets along well with members of the royal family, but that at some point in her life she felt overcome by “the weight of being Queen Letizia’s niece”.

“When I was younger. There was a time when (journalists) didn’t persecute me, now that I go out more, I often say ‘how annoying I am,'” he admitted.

What he said about Jaime del Burgo

In addition, he admitted that Burgo was on good terms with the queen, but that he did not know the degree of their closeness.
