Last Friday, October 18, for the first time in many years, Doña Letizia's father, Jesus Ortiz, was seen at the Campoamor Theater in Oviedo, who was accompanied by his second wife, Ana Togores (55). They didn't want to miss Leonor's debut at the Princess of Asturias Awards. Many of those present at the theater were worried about the situation in Catalonia, where street riots were in full swing. However, Ana Togores sure had part of his thinking all the time in Barcelona. That black Friday his anguish had explanation, since one of the controls of the police dome that directed the operation from CECOR, the bunker located in the Department of Interior, was his brother José Antonio (59), who is very close and He frequently visits Barcelona, where he resides, since in September 2018, Minister Marlaska appointed him as Chief of Police in Catalonia.
This culminated a long career that began in the Military Academy of Zaragoza, where the officers of the Army of the Earth are formed, although in 1979, with 19 years, he chose to go to the National Police. He joined as a lieutenant, later he was an inspector and, in 2004, he approved the commissioner's opposition. Those who know him say that José Antonio is a man who stands out for his strong personality, mixed with large doses of audacity and ambition. The incident he starred in 2010 when confronted with his superiors and the Zapatero Government himself for publicly denouncing the vexatious treatment given by Hugo Chavez to Spanish policemen who transferred Venezuela to criminals, who were even denied food.
In his long career he has gone through numerous units, from Cavalry to Canine Guides. Although his specialty is the IPU or riot forces , of which he is considered one of the greatest experts. He has held positions in different destinations, such as Gran Canaria, where he was head of Citizen Security, a position he also held in Madrid, Andalusia, where he served as commissioner in Granada and head of Operations in Eastern Andalusia, and Extremadura, where he was chief superior of Police, until the jump to Catalonia.
Togores, despite his brilliant curriculum that has earned him six Crossings of Police Merit and seven medals awarded by Interpol, can not be considered a prototype of a tough policeman, on the contrary, they say that when he removes the uniform he is a gentleman , even From 2013 to 2016 he was assigned to the Spanish embassy in Colombia as an Interior advisor. There he turned to the fight against drug trafficking, which did not prevent him from cultivating social relations and attending receptions wearing his decorations, so much so that his warrior looked like an exhibitor.
His brilliant record together with his physical attractiveness has earned him a certain halo of Don Juan, because they say he always took the women from the street, as evidenced by the bodos he made in 1995 with a beautiful aristocrat named Natalia Urzáiz Becaud. She was the daughter of Jaime Urzáiz Fernández del Castillo, Marquis consort of Navahermosa, count of Ofalia and son-in-law, no less than the then Duchess of Medinaceli, Victoria Eugenia Fernández de Córdoba, who died in 2013. The wedding, which came out in all the echoes of society and whose godfather was the father of the bride, took place in the military archbishopric church of Madrid and the agape was held in the halls of the Gran Peña, a redoubt of the aristocracy. Natacha was one of the three daughters born from Jaime Urzáiz's first marriage to the Swiss Margot Becaud, a yoga expert from whom she divorced to marry Ana Medina, in turn divorced from Prince Maximiliano de Hohenlohe and eldest son of Victoria Fernández de Córdoba, for what was the heiress of the Duchy of Medinaceli. Title that today would hold if he had not died prematurely from cancer in 2012, a year before his mother, which paradoxically had made the Queen's father, Jesus Ortiz, relate to the Duchy of Medinaceli, similar in importance to Alba. The couple had two children, Jaime and Natalia, although the successive destinations outside the capital of the Doña Letizia tiastro distanced them, since Natacha, who now runs a garden decoration company called Samsara Green Deco, remained in Madrid with her two sons.
The jump of relating to the most rancid aristocracy did not surprise the Togores environment too much, since Julia Guisasola, the mother of José Antonio, was a very elegant woman, who always moved like a fish in the water in elitist environments, something that he transmitted to his children, in fact the family resided in the exclusive area of Somosaguas. He married Patricio Togores and Franco Romero, a military man who died young with the rank of colonel, and his premature widowhood pushed him to work in a well-known jewelry store in Madrid to get his three children forward. Patricio, the eldest, now a retired colonel of intendancy, followed in the footsteps of his father in the military career, and José Antonio, who opted for law enforcement, is today a policeman in Catalonia.
TWO WEDDINGS OF ABOLENGO
Ana, current wife of Letizia's father, who was the only little girl, was always the spoiled of the house, especially for her two older brothers. He was educated in one of the best schools, the Irish of La Moraleja, and later decided to study Journalism, beginning his career in National Radio. He worked for a stage in Estudio de Comunicación, a consulting firm founded by the journalist Lalo Azcona, where he met Jesús Ortiz, with whom, after divorcing the lawyer Ricardo García Camacho, father of his only daughter, he married in March 2004.
After José Antonio's bath with Natacha Urzáiz, which led them to relate to the Duchy of Medinaceli, the family could not imagine that little Ana would end up becoming "stepmother" of the future Queen of Spain, with which she certainly has A fairly close relationship. In the recent ceremony of the Princess of Asturias Awards, Doña Letizia was aware that Ana Togores was living with great concern for her brother the violent disturbances that were occurring in Catalonia.
