After a year looking for an editorial for Mi mamá y yo somos una familia feliz, María Zurita y Borbón (46), finally publishes the story she dedicates to her son Carlitos, 5 years old. The niece of King Juan Carlos, she is a single mother by in vitro fertilization from an anonymous donor, a decision she made at age 41, because of her desire to have a child.
In this story he wants to convey to his little one that there are other family models different from the traditional scheme. The daughter of the Infanta Margarita and Dr. Carlos Zurita, director of a translation agency, lives with her parents and her brother Alfonso, delighted to form a large family.
Being a single mother can make it difficult to find a partner, because of the dedication involved in the children or because there are gentlemen who do not want someone else's child. I think it's the other way around. When they see that you are not going to pigeonhole a child, as is my case, they call more. I have been asked to marry three times. But apart from a good partner, I think I was looking for a good father, before I even considered becoming a mother. I saw my father and thought: I want one like this. I have had more suitors than before, but I am delighted, I have a very easy life and with little time: the company, my parents, TV shows, the child... I get up very early and go to bed early too. You call me for dinner and kill me. Many consider you a brave woman. Brave are those who put up with one and have to agree on the decisions to be made, in the education of children or in daily life: it seems to me a nightmare. Brave, those who marry. Your parents supported you from the beginning but a magazine published that Doña Sofía was scandalized. Quite the opposite. The King was Charles' godfather of honor and the Queen was the first to come to see the child at the hospital (and shows a photo of Doña Sofía in the nest). For the Obregón case it is discussed these days if there are mothers courage or women who make nonsense. We focus too much on the lives of others. We should care more about our happiness. I am unable to judge a person who has lost a child. There is also much criticism of exposing minors in the media. One thing is what the mother teaches and another that they can manipulate their image in the press. I teach the day to day of my son with all naturalness, I do not hurt anyone.Do not you run the risk of exposing him too much and making him famous since childhood? The child is already exposed, I have photographers every day at the door of my house, which gives me more already. In a few years this part you have become a public figure, beyond who your family is: television, interviews, this book ... Publicizing a different family model can even help. I have received many messages of thanks. And as for being on television, I had never proposed it! I'm at a point in my life where I don't say no to anything. I do not hurt anyone, I have fun and on top of that they pay, I still have many schools to pay. But it's not for money. You've always had a good relationship with your cousins and their parents. Once you said that you inherited the dresses of the infantas. That is how it has been. And they fixed them for me in a store that was called, I think, The Golden Scissors. I didn't start wearing new clothes until I was very old. Before, uniform and on Sundays, clothes of my cousins. You were with your parents visiting Don Juan Carlos in Abu Dhabi.It was a beautiful and very emotional trip. My uncle loves my mother very much, she is the one who had the most need to be taken care of and the only sister she has left. I'm not going to go into that puddle. You have more friends among normal people than in the aristocracy world. I have been educated in schools where I met all kinds of people and I do not treat so many people with degrees. In addition, I do not like to hunt, although years ago I did, nor do I go to the bulls. When I was at the bullfight in Aranjuez, where we were saying goodbye to my uncle from public life, I had a terrible time. Since I have my dog Zeta I have become very animalistic.How are your parents as grandparents? Delivered. And Carlitos adores them. Scope This video of the boy helping his grandmother, although we never told him she was blind.How is the father's choice in an in vitro fertilization? By photography? There are no photos, you can't choose anything, they only measure your physical features and your skin color. Well, what luck, your son is blond, blue-eyed and Bourbon-faced. And he also looks like my maternal grandfather Juan when he was little. Look at this photo of the boy next to a painting of his great-grandfather. It also has a lot of Zurita.Is the whole process very expensive? Very expensive, I had to ask for three loans.
