Infanta Elena and Infanta Cristina Visit King Juan Carlos in His Self-Imposed Exile

Infanta Elena and Infanta Cristina of Spain.

Since King Emeritus Juan Carlos of Spain left his country for the United Arab Emirates in August 2020, there has been much speculation about the possible familial visits he might receive. Now, we have learned that both of his daughters, the Infantas Elena and Cristina, have gone together to see their father.
Over this past weekend, Elena and Cristina separately flew to Abu Dhabi to visit King Juan Carlos. Infanta Elena left Spain for the UAE on Saturday, 6 February. Infanta Cristina departed for Abu Dhabi on Sunday morning, 7 February, after traveling earlier in the weekend from Geneva to Spain spend time with her husband Iñaki Urdangarín. 
The infantas intend to be with their father for at least one week. This will be the first time that Infanta Cristina has seen her father since he left Spain. It will be the third time Infanta Elena has visited the King Emeritus after his self-imposed exile.
