Happy Birthday to Infanta Elena, Duchess of Lugo, who turns 54 today! The eldest child of King Juan Carlos of Spain and Princess Sofia of Greece, she is the elder sister of King Felipe and Infanta Cristina. Educated in Spain and France, in 1995, she married Jaime de Marichalar y Sáenz de Tejada, son of the Count and Countess of Ripalda, at Seville Cathedral. The couple have two children, but divorced in 2010. Infanta Elena used to be an active working member of the royal family, though she has taken a step back after the accession of King Felipe in 2014. I wish HRH a very Happy Birthday and Many Happy Returns!
