Only one of the four children of Infanta Cristina and Iñaki Urdangarin attended the service in memory of King Constantine of Greece, held this Tuesday in St. George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle.
It was Juan Urdangarin, the couple’s firstborn, who broke with his usual anonymity to accompany his mother and his aunt, the Infanta Elena, in this act of remembrance for the last Greek monarch, who died last year.

The 24-year-old, who has been living in London for several years, was the center of attention for his elegance and discretion.
He wore a black two-button coat, a navy suit and a navy tie.
His only eye-catching detail was a pair of green socks that contrasted with his black loafers.
Holding his mother’s arm, Juan Urdangarin showed his affection and complicity with her and his aunt, with whom he shared some confidences and smiles.
Juan Urdangarin is the most reserved son of the Infanta Cristina, who has always tried to protect the privacy of her children.
He studied International Relations and Economics at the University of Essex and currently works in the company of Alejandro Agag, husband of Ana Aznar, daughter of former Spanish President José María Aznar.
In addition, Juan has a great vocation for solidarity and has participated in several cooperation projects in India and Cambodia.
The young man was already present at the funeral of King Constantine, which took place in Athens in January 2023, together with his siblings Pablo, Miguel and Irene.
On that occasion, the King and Queen of Spain, Felipe VI and Letizia, were also to pay tribute to the last Greek king.
Queen Camilla of England hosted the tribute, which was attended by representatives of other European royal families.
