The infanta Elena and Victoria Federica: This was their confrontation with the press

The Infanta Elena has never been very kind to the press and it seems her daughter inherited that enmity. A few days ago, the eldest daughter of the Emeritus Kings had an accident with a Telecinco journalist. The reporter called her “Elena”, and the royal wife sharply corrected her: “Doña Elena”, a response that social networks have labeled as classic. It is not the first time that the infanta has come into contact with the press, as she has always shown a certain distaste for the media. So much so that she earned the nickname “Lemon Infanta” among journalists and photographers, while her sister was the “Orange Infanta”, because of the way each of them handled the press.

His phrase with a curse word also became famous: “Who the hell turned the radio on me?”cried the Infanta Elena, scolding the driver of the vehicle. “Sorry ma’am, it was me,” replied the “culprit” of changing the radio button. It happened near El Niño Jesús (Madrid), when Doña Elena accompanied her son Felipe, who was then 14 years old, to the Santa María del Pilar school, where her cousin Sofía now attends. It was a royal guard who revealed to ‘Vanitatis’ that little anger of the infanta Elena to the driver of the car. “For better or worse, Mrs. Elena is the closest of the royal family. As soon as she yells at you, she is interested in the health of your children for several days. It is easier to accompany Prince Felipe or the Infanta Cristina , who are more aseptic Let’s say that no one volunteered to work with herthe same source stated, suggesting that dealing directly with her was somewhat complicated.

His strong character has also occasionally splashed journalists. Ten years ago, she became the subject of another altercation. The infanta got out of the car and began to scold the media: ‘You attack me, you attack me! Go away, go away, I don’t want to see you!”. A few years earlier, “The Ana Rosa Program” released a video in which Ms. Elena confronted a reporter who followed her as she practiced horseback riding with her daughter, Victoria Federica. ‘You, will you go, please? Can you let us exercise? Seeing that the journalist did not leave, he asked his bodyguard to intervene: “Do something!” cried the infanta gruffly.

It seems that her children have followed in Doña Elena’s footsteps. First it was Froilán who made ugly gestures to the press when he was a child, but today the roles have turned and it is his sister who confronts the journalists. It is likely that Froilán will continue to loathe the press, but his withdrawal from the media has also helped him avoid this sort of scuffle. Since I was just a kid, this image went viral in which gives the middle finger to photographers who followed him at that time.

Victoria Federica is the worst who has acted with the press of all Spanish royalty. When he broke off his relationship with Bárcenas and returned to his mother’s arms, journalists wanted to know if he would move in with her permanently. ‘I can visit my mother whenever I want, right? It’s none of your business…’, the granddaughter of King Juan Carlos replied with a more than reproachful attitude. On another occasion, he reached for his cell phone to record the reporters, saying in a defiant tone, “What’s troubling you, huh?” Another occasion where we could see another outburst from the influencer was when news of the romance between Ainhoa ​​Armenia and her uncle Iñaki broke out. The young woman urged to be left alone and not to comment on anything, an attitude that contrasted with that of her cousin Juan, who kindly stopped to chat with the journalists for a few minutes, while them in a succinct way and how he lived discreetly in the new family situation.
