Last January 25, Infanta Cristina and Inaki Urdangarin announced the end of their 24-year marriage, after photos of the former handball player with another woman became public. It was Ainhoa Armentia who worked with him and maintains their relationship, even though he has not yet officially divorced the younger sister of King Felipe VI.
The process is still ongoing and Hola magazine says it will not be completed until 2024, and is scheduled to resume after Three Kings Day, which is the most prominent Christmas season in Spain. The divorce will be signed in Barcelona, where Cristina and Iñaki were married on October 4, 1997.

The Spanish press also says that the Infanta will pay him a pension of up to three thousand euros
