Iñaki Urdangarin’s upcoming trip to Switzerland will be definitive for his future and will mark the beginning of a new stage in his life as he will probably sign the divorce from Infanta Cristina.
Both Urdangarin and Ainhoa Armentia, his current partner, are in similar divorce proceedings and will soon be officially single and free of commitment.

Economic situation of Ainhoa Armentia and Iñaki Urdangarin
As for the economic situation, Spanish portals have revealed that Armentia has divided the patrimony shared with her ex-husband after their divorce last December.
She is now the sole owner of the family home, an apartment of approximately 150 square meters acquired in 2016, as well as an apartment on the beach in Alicante and parts of a storage room and a garage in Vitoria.
On Iñaki’s side, neither the Infanta nor Urdangarin own property in Spain, due to the sale of all their properties to face the economic liabilities derived from the Nóos case.
When will Iñaki and Cristina sign the divorce?
Although the exact date of the signing of the divorce will be kept secret, it has been reported that Urdangarin’s trip to Geneva to celebrate his daughter’s 18th birthday will also mark the end of his marriage to the Infanta Cristina.
The event symbolizes his estrangement from the royal family, which Urdangarin blames for his conviction and stint in prison. For him, the divorce represents a relief and the possibility of leaving behind a complicated stage of his life.
The divorce of Iñaki Urdangarin and the Infanta Cristina will take place before a notary and will be registered in the Civil Registry of the royal family, a special registry regulated by Royal Decree in 1981.
This implies that the process will not go through a court and will be kept private, unless one of the parties decides to make it public.
It is said that neither Ainhoa nor Iñaki intended to divorce, but the love that has arisen between them has led them to reconsider their future together.
