Queen Sofía continues her vacation in Palma de Mallorca, where she is scheduled to stay at least until the end of August. During the stay in Marivent of Don Felipe, Doña Letizia and their daughters, the Emerita has not been seen in public at any time. But with the Kings already back in Madrid, Doña Sofía has left the palace again this Wednesday afternoon to enjoy a walk through the Balearic capital and take the opportunity to do some shopping.
The King's mother has been accompanied by three inseparable people in her life and, in a very special way, in Majorcan summers: her sister , Princess Irene, and two of her closest friends: her cousin, Princess Tatiana Radziwill and her husband, Dr. Jean Henri Fruchaud.
Since she married Don Juan Carlos and began her new life in our country in the 1960s, Doña Sofía, with very few Spanish friends, has always been secluded in a very small group of intimates, formed above all by relatives, the only non-bribery guardians of their secrets and desires. And in that group the Fruchaud occupy a prominent place .
Tatiana Radziwill travels to Mallorca every summer to share part of the holidays with Doña Sofía. She is the daughter of a Polish-Lithuanian prince and Princess Eugenia of Greece. She is actually a distant cousin of the Queen, but they have been inseparable since her earliest childhood, when the two shared the five harsh years of exile for the Greek royal family in Egypt and South Africa.
The bomb-proof discretion of Tatiana and her husband is the treasure that today's Emerita most appreciates. They have never made any public statement about the Spanish Royal Family. And they have not wanted to go out of their way to defend themselves even when falsehoods have been published such as that they are "some freeloaders" whom the Queen welcomes in Marivent.
The reality is that they are your greatest support, the people you feel best with. But Tatiana enjoys an enviable financial situation, since her mother inherited half of the immense fortune of her mother, Princess Maria Bonaparte, one of the most fascinating royal figures of the 20th century.
The four of them, Doña Sofía, Irene and the Fruchaud couple, spend many moments of the year together, especially in Greece, where they are all regular in celebrations related to King Constantine and his offspring. This year they were unable to celebrate the 80th birthday of the Emerita's brother in June due to the coronavirus pandemic. But it is very likely, if the sanitary conditions allow it, that at the beginning of September they will meet in Porto Jeli, where the kings Constantino and Ana María have established their residence since 2013. What is an enigma is when they will be able to attend the wedding of Princess Theodora, who has also had to be postponed sine die due to the pandemic.
