The future Felipe Juan Froilán in the Arab Emirates and under the supervision of King Juan Carlos, seems to be in question.

What he is clear about is that he does not want to return to Spain. According to the magazine Hello, Froilán’s life seems to be getting on track, “he has matured a lot. Hence, he does not want to return to Spain at the moment and the idea is, after vacation, to resume his studies and start a new job,” says the publication. In addition, they point out that he has joined the gym and is following a healthy diet.
For its part, Victoria Federica, has made a name for himself as an influencer on social networks, and will even participate in one of the most watched contests on television: ‘El Desafío’. A role that had never been seen in members of Spanish royalty. It is also common to see her at parties with some of her professional colleagues, or at fashion shows of large fashion brands. Whether she will go to university has not been talked about for some time. Logically, her mother, Infanta Elena, does not support this decision, since the members of the king’s family have always boasted of having a university degree.
