Froilán, between the little scoundrel with grace and the nini of the putiafters

• In Madrid The truth of what happened at the door of the nightclub where a friend of Froilán was injured

• Partying Froilán: a danger to himself, not to the Crown

It has been shown that you can be an aristocrat and a party animal and, furthermore, be liked.

The case of Pocholo is exemplary in this regard: a man with more years spent in Pachá than months in Social Security who, however,

Or Harry, another amazing case of a rambunctious kid who has gone from throwing parties in brown uniforms to becoming a progressive banner against racism.

While there have been countless examples in history of depraved patricians turning their privilege into a shield to commit outrages,

That is why Felipe de Marichalar, alias Froilán (24), is doing something wrong, because being able to present a sympathetic aura of a

, a grotesque example of a harmless farrero, little by little he begins to transmit a halo dark.

When his name appears in the rogue chronicle, and it has been happening frequently since he came of age, concepts such as

and, ultimately, the feeling that

appear. , unable to give him values ​​or teach him what virtue is.

The eldest grandson of Juan Carlos I is back in the news because he was caught afterward.

The scoundrel is a profile that is normally observed with indulgence

Froilán's problem is that, of all the characteristics of the rogue that he presents, the one that carries the most weight is his
