Don Juan Carlos and Doña Sofía, during Franco's exhumation: eating together in Madrid
We already know more about the lunch that Don Juan Carlos and Doña Sofía gathered in a bistro in the Madrid neighborhood of Huertas with some friends, last Thursday, just when he finished in the Valley of the Fallen, the exhumation of the remains of Francisco Franco .
In the photos that were published of the diners arriving at the restaurant Moncalvillo, in the street of San Lucas, the emeritus Kings, Simeon of Bulgaria , the last king of that Balkan country, with his wife Margarita Gómez-Acebo , and the designer Carolina Herrera .
However, there were other guests who did not appear in the images. We talked about Victoria Eugenia de Figueroa y Borbón , daughter of the II count of Romanones and Marquise widow of Tamarit and her sister Blanca .
They were the ones who convened this lunch among friends, "very simple, friendly, because we love being together and because we like the restaurant, which is my niece's, it is very cozy and eats great".
Victoria, who has always been one of the most elegant women in Spain, is cousin of Natalia Figueroa , Raphael's wife, and is the widow of Juan Suelves and Ponsich , Marquis de Tamarit and Viscount of Montserrat. Two of her children, Maria and Blanca, are the best known of the six offspring of marriage. María Suelves' first husband was precisely Francis Franco Martínez-Bordiú. And Blanca was a notable model before marrying Joannes Osorio, current Duke of Albuquerque .
Victoria confessed to LOC that she prefers to go unnoticed and that she was delighted not to have appeared in the lunch photos, but understands that there is interest in having (good) news of the emeritus Kings, in a new and friendly appearance together.
The ambassador of Malta also attended the meal. "We did not celebrate anything special, just the joy of seeing each other. We are retired people (laughs), happy to meet. By the way, Don Juan Carlos is fantastic . He has taken off 30 years!"
The presence of Carolina Herrera is explained by the Marquise de Tamarit, "because we are friends , I have known her for many years since they introduced us to New York and then we have agreed in many other places."
