Queen Letizia has become an essential pillar for her sister Telma Ortiz during the difficult process of her separation

The Spanish royal family is going through delicate times after the unexpected breakup of Telma Ortiz, sister of Queen Letizia. The news has caused surprise and has put the consort's younger sister under the media spotlight. 

Family relationships are now at the center of everyone's attention, but certain details still remain hidden from the public. The consort is facing a major challenge, since she must balance her personal life and her official responsibilities.

A complicated role for Queen Letizia

Queen Letizia is in a very difficult position due to her sister Telma Ortiz's separation. Although both had rebuilt a close relationship in recent times, the news has forced them to keep a great deal of discretion. The consort must balance her family support with her institutional role, which limits her actions.

Telma has been in the news for days after her breakup with Robert Gavin Bonnar, with whom she had a daughter and kept a relationship for six years. The distancing was gradual, but the conflict became evident after a heated public argument between the couple. 

Meanwhile, Queen Letizia can't act openly as a sister in this crisis due to her official responsibilities. The support she gives must be discreet and respectful of her role in the monarchy. This creates an additional emotional burden for her in an already complicated time for the family.

Telma Ortiz and the separation no one expected

Telma and Robert Gavin Bonnar began to grow apart after months of tensions that ultimately broke their cohabitation in La Moraleja. Robert moved to another apartment while Telma alternates her residence between the apartment they shared and her father Jesús Ortiz's house. This change of residence has been one of the first steps toward her new life.

The financial situation has also complicated the process, since the couple hasn't paid the rent for their home for several months. The property owners were surprised to discover that Telma no longer lived there. This nonpayment led to an eviction threat, an unexpected scenario for the queen's sister.

The message that left the queen speechless

Recently, Telma Ortiz sent a direct and clear message to Queen Letizia, with a request that surprised the consort. Telma asked that no one speak about her separation and requested that the matter be kept in the strictest privacy. This request has left Letizia speechless, since it sets a limit on how she can show her support publicly.

This request reflects Telma's desire to handle the crisis discreetly and without media involvement. The message, though brief, has had a considerable impact within the family circle. For Letizia, it's a reminder of the delicacy with which the matter must be handled.

Despite the difficulties, Queen Letizia continues to support her sister behind the scenes. The bond between them remains strong, even in moments of silence and public distance. The privacy that Telma demands is respected, but the affection remains intact.
