Los secretos de la infanta

Paloma Barrientos openly portrays the protagonist of the biggest scandal in the history of the Spanish monarchy. Who really is Cristina de Borbón? How did that girl who played ball in the Zarzuela gardens come to sit on the bench as a defendant in front of Judge Castro? What did the idyllic images of coated paper hide? Was she really once the unassuming, unassuming woman she seemed to be? The Infanta Cristina was for many years the most unknown of the children of the Kings. The middle of the family attracted less attention than her siblings, and she grew up thinking that she could go unnoticed. She got used to an independent, comfortable and sumptuous life, in which all her wishes were immediately fulfilled. The journalist Paloma Barrientos recreates in great detail the life trajectory of her infanta, from her childhood to her indictment for the Nóos Affaire.
