Writer Jaime Peñafiel's book Letizia and I reportedly focused on Queen Letizia Ortiz and her relationship with King Felipe VI, which appeared to be very stable.
An unknown facet of the monarch is shown in the narrative of this project, recording the numerous romantic adventures she experienced before marrying her current husband, as well as the fact that she had two abortions and that she was generally a woman was quite an unpredictable person in his love life.
