Aristocrats 6G: from Tamara Falcó to Teresa Urquijo

Almeida's weddingIt has left us hooked on the aristocracy. It's not the fault of schottische, by the way, the least mischievous that Madrid has ever known, except for the headdresses, the singularity of Mayi, the mayor's sister, or our crazy imagination that, driven by a binge of series, gives each last name a story with its own meaning. own headline: “The viscount who loved me”, “Looking for a wife” or “Happily ever after”. And in the photo we look for the widow who insists on marrying her daughters, the son who gambled his inheritance in a bet or the lover who put family morals in check on the same estate in El Canto de la Cruz.

All of this is a mirage. Once the hangovers were over and the headdresses, clutches and pearls were returned to the dressing room, the blue blood turned a common red and the aristocrats resumed their chores. So common that the newlyweds signed up for “twinning”, that trend that consists of dressing to match. Neither Urquijo nor Martínez Almeida hold titlebut their respective surnames certify their rancid ancestry.

With a double degree in Law and Business Administration at ICAI-ICADE and other qualifications obtained abroad, Urquijo represents that generation of aristocrats who are taking over. Dukes, marquises, counts, viscounts and barons live, with exceptions, an absolutely discreet and contained life. Sometimes, it would be said that with an allergy to excess. This is the case of Alejandra Romero, granddaughter of Adolfo Suárez, who inherited the title of Duchess of Suárez. At the age of 14 she lost her mother, Mariam, to breast cancer, a disease that also affected the life of her grandmother, Amparo Illana.

She has been married since 2018 to Pedro de Armas and they are parents of two girls. She graduated in Law and Business from ICADE and works as a lawyer at the law firm Herbert Smith Freehills. She collaborates with women at risk of social exclusion at the Mariam Suárez Family Support and Meeting Center, created in tribute to her mother. The modification in 2006 of the Law for the Succession of Noble Titles eliminated the prevalence of the male and made it possible for her to be her heir, despite some family disagreement.

In Chamberí or any other wealthy neighborhood, anyone could be living door to door with a marquis without knowing it. James of Bourbon-Two Sicilies, Duke of Noto, resides in London and is very loved by King Juan Carlos. He has, in addition to an impeccable career in the financial sector, a beautiful biography. He is the first-born of the Dukes of Calabria and was born out of wedlock due to his father's refusal, for seven years, to accept a bride without royal blood, despite being a great-granddaughter of the Duke of San Fernando de Quiroga.
