  • Exclusive Juan Carlos I's weekend for Almeida's wedding: he will sleep in Madrid and eat in Zarzuela

Juan Carlos I arrived in Madrid this morning, on a flight from

Geneva

. The Emeritus has traveled to the capital with luggage to spend four days here, where he will leave after attending the funeral for

Fernando Gómez-Acebo

next Monday. The father of Felipe VI thus fulfills his intention of having

greater public exposure

once his pending cases with justice have been closed. Although he continues to reside in Abu Dhabi, he prefers not to submit to the demands of the Spanish Treasury.

In any case, the Emeritus arrived in the capital of Spain on a private Vistajet plane and a car took him directly to the house of one of his friends. This newspaper has not been able to confirm where he is staying, although several people have offered him his house in Madrid. On the Princess's birthday, Don Juan Carlos spent the night at a friend's residence, in the center of the capital.

Without wasting time, the Emeritus has scheduled

a dinner with friends

this Friday . The King, who is going to take advantage of these four days in Madrid to meet with numerous people, will have dinner in a restaurant, whose location has been impossible to know, but

without hiding and normally.

On Saturday, the former Monarch will attend the wedding of José Luis Martínez-Almeida with

Teresa Urquijo with his daughters.

The former Head of State will also be accompanied by his grandchildren,

De Marichalar

and at least

Juan Urdangarin

, according to

Vanitatis

.

Juan Carlos I wants to take advantage of Sunday to

have family lunch

in Zarzuela. This is an appointment conceived in the private sphere, so it is unknown which Bourbons will be present. Infanta Sofía and the Princess of Asturias

are in Madrid,

both on vacation, although both must return to their training centers on those days.

On Monday, Don Juan Carlos will have a new opportunity to reunite with his family, since at six in the afternoon the funeral for Fernando Gómez-Acebo will be held in the military cathedral. It will be time to see Juan Carlos I with his entire family, since both his children and his nephews will meet at the temple to remember the little son of Infanta Pilar.
