Pedro Campos, a close friend of King Juan Carlos, has surprised everyone by revealing the former king's secret. The information has caused a major media stir, since very few people expected what Juan Carlos had planned.
As the Galician businessman has confessed, very soon we will all witness a historic event. It is a sporting event that will take Felipe's father far beyond our borders.
Pedro Campos reveals King Juan Carlos's secret plans
Pedro Campos, a close friend of King Juan Carlos, had always kept us used to his discretion and silence. On the occasions when the former king has traveled to Sanxenxo, it has been the Galician businessman who has welcomed him into his home. Always under a veil of mystery and silence that he has now decided to break.
In this regard, Campos has revealed Juan Carlos's secret: his upcoming trip to New York. According to what his close sailing companion has exclusively revealed, the former king has firm intentions to ride the waves of the Big Apple. The goal is clear and involves planting a flag at the 6M World Cup in September.
The information reached Vanitatis: "What is certain is that we will travel to be present at the regatta," Pedro Campos assured. With these statements, he revealed King Juan Carlos's nautical agenda, as ambitious as it is exciting. We are talking about a regatta that will be held from September 21 to 28 in New York, where Juan Carlos, at 87 years old, will attend.
This is a major sporting event, and the presence of the former king adds extra interest to the occasion. King Juan Carlos continues to show passion for the sea, although now with more caution and attention to his physical condition. Nevertheless, Campos has confirmed that they will travel together to the United States for the competition.
During his last visit to Sanxenxo in July, he did not take the helm, but enjoyed the event from a support boat close to the competition. However, this is not enough reason for Felipe's father not to embark on a new adventure with his great friend.
Indeed, as Campos has confessed, Juan Carlos has extraordinary energy. "The one who beats me in spirit and endurance is the king, I hope we keep going in the same direction and win again," he said with excitement.
Pedro Campos and King Juan Carlos will travel together to New York
New York will be a special stage for the Bribón team, a historic boat that has already won seven world championships in the 6M category. If everything goes as planned, this could be the occasion to fight for an eighth title and leave another mark in history.
The trip is not just a sporting matter, it is also a show of vitality and commitment from King Juan Carlos to sailing. Pedro Campos himself explains that everything depends on how the former king feels in the days leading up to the event.
In 2024, a health problem in Abu Dhabi forced the former king to moderate his participation in physical activities and international trips. Even so, every time there is an important event in the sailing world, his name appears linked to that of his inseparable Galician companion.
Both have sailed seas and oceans, carrying the Spanish sailing flag to high-level international competitions. New York will be a significant stop, not only because of the competition, but also for the opportunity to share moments of friendship.
If health allows, King Juan Carlos and Campos will once again be protagonists of an exciting chapter in international sailing. "It's very easy to sail with Don Juan Carlos, it's essential to be a team and we are one," the businessman emphasized about the former king.
