Spain’s aristocratic circles are abuzz with exciting news: Isabel Junot and Álvaro Falcó are preparing to embrace parenthood once again. Two years after welcoming their first child, daughter Filippa, the couple has announced they are expecting another addition to the family. The news was shared with the public in the elegant and witty manner characteristic of Isabel. On her Instagram account, she posted a series of photos, starting with a teasing shot where she covers her belly with a newspaper and ending with a picture that left no doubts about her pregnancy. The caption was concise and playful, inviting followers to guess the gender of the future baby.
The reaction was immediate. The comment section was flooded with warm wishes from friends, fans, and, of course, family members. Among the first to respond was Álvaro’s cousin, Tamara Falcó, who left a string of heart and star emojis under the post, clearly expressing her joy for the couple. Her husband, Íñigo Onieva, also joined in the congratulations, offering his support. Such close ties among cousins are well-known. Just a few weeks ago, Tamara shared photos on social media from a lunch in Italy where both couples enjoyed their time together, displaying the strength of their friendship and family bonds.
The love story of Isabel and Álvaro is reminiscent of a romantic movie script. Their first meeting took place back in 2016 on the snowy slopes of the Swiss ski resort Gstaad. However, the real spark between them ignited two years later, when fate brought them together again, this time in Madrid. Their romance quickly blossomed and led to a grand wedding held at the historic Mirabel palace in Plasencia. The event became one of the most talked-about society weddings of the year.
In June 2023, their union was blessed by the birth of their daughter Filippa, who instantly became the center of the young parents’ universe. Isabel has often spoken tenderly about her daughter, describing her as a very cheerful and clever child. She also noted an amazing resemblance between her daughter and her late mother-in-law, seeing in Filippa not only her looks but also the same zest for life that her grandmother possessed. Now little Filippa is about to take on a new role – that of an older sister.
The forthcoming addition to the family of the Marqueses de Cubas – Álvaro’s title – will be a significant event for the entire clan. For Tamara Falcó, this means she will become an aunt again, and doubly so, given recent news about her half-brother Enrique Iglesias also expanding his family. It seems the new generation of this famous dynasty is actively coming into its own, continuing proud traditions and capturing public attention.
