In a significant gesture of family closeness, Iñaki Urdangarin and his partner, Ainhoa Armentia, traveled to Cambodia to visit Irene, Infanta Cristina’s youngest daughter.
Irene, 18, was one of Iñaki and Cristina’s children who had a hard time with her parents’ separation.
It is said that when Iñaki’s extramarital affair came to light, his daughter Irene sided with her mother.
Apparently, the young girl witnessed the suffering her mother went through after the publication of the photos of Iñaki and Ainhoa holding hands on a beach in Bidart.
“She witnessed Cristina’s pain, she saw her suffer day by day and that was very hard for her,” said the real expert Pilar Eyre in her blog.
Irene in that period made it clear to her father that she refused to accept and meet Ainhoa Armentia.
However, time has passed and family problems have been solved little by little. Irene has become more open to her father’s new relationship.
Irene in Cambodia
Irene decided to take a sabbatical year before continuing her university education and embarked on an adventure by joining an NGO in Cambodia as a volunteer.
The youngest daughter of Iñaki and Cristina has been dedicated to projects with people with physical and mental disabilities in the town of Battambang, one of the poorest in the country.
During her stay in Cambodia, Irene has experienced a new life away from her family.
However, her father, Iñaki Urdangarin, and his partner, Ainhoa Armentia, have decided to visit her.
A reunion that shows that the young woman has given in to meeting Ainhoa after the scandal.
Iñaki and Ainhoa’s trip to Cambodia
According to reports, although the main reason for the trip to Cambodia was to spend time with Irene, the couple took the opportunity to go sightseeing and visit the ruins of Angkor and Phnom Kulen National Park.
Iñaki and Ainhoa stayed at the Grand Venus La Residence Hotel in Siem Reap.
This meeting marks a new chapter in Ainhoa Armentia’s relationship with Iñaki Urdangarin’s children.
Previously, it was rumored that the children did not maintain or wish to be close to their father’s partner.
However, it recently became known that Ainhoa had already met Pablo, Iñaki’s most popular son.
Now, with this visit to Cambodia, it is confirmed that Irene has also accepted Ainhoa as her father’s partner.
Probably, for Iñaki it is a gesture that fills him with happiness since he has shown that he is deeply in love with Ainhoa with whom he has a stable relationship that exceeds two years.
