King Juan Carlos has denied having had an out-of-wedlock relationship with the aristocrat Rosario Palacios, as has been reported in various media in recent days, and "consequently having had a daughter with her."
In statements to Efe, the emeritus king explained that "out of respect for the truth and honor" of the people affected, he is forced to deny this information "rejecting and condemning as false everything that has been published in relation to this invented matter."
"I absolutely deny having had any love affair with Mrs. Rosario Palacios (q.e.p.d.) and consequently having had a daughter with her," the former head of state emphatically underlines.
Based on the revelations contained in the book King Corp., the untold empire of Juan Carlos I, by journalists José María Olmo and David Fernández, about a supposed secret daughter of King Juan Carlos, various media have indicated that it could It is about Alejandra de Rojas, daughter of the aristocrat Rosario Palacios, who died in 2016.
The EL MUNDO LOC supplement contacted King Juan Carlos to ask him if the information in the book was true and he was blunt: "It is not true that he has a daughter" called Alejandra. Now, the king emeritus, from his residence in Abu Dhabi, once again denies to Efe that he has had any love affair with Palacios and, consequently, is the father of his daughter Alejandra.
Sources from the Royal House already denied this Thursday to EFE having knowledge that King Juan Carlos had a secret daughter, as stated in various journalistic reports.
The publication of this book coincides with the second visit of the king emeritus to Spain since his departure to the United Arab Emirates more than years ago as a result of information about his business abroad.
Unlike his first visit last year, Don Juan Carlos has spent a few days in the Pontevedra town of Sanxenxo discreetly and without making any statements, although he was able to be photographed upon arrival at Vigo airport and together with the sailboat crew Rascal.
