Yes, there was a wedding: Fernando Alonso and Raquel got married on November 17 in Limanes

Yes, there was a wedding: Fernando Alonso Díaz and Raquel del Rosario Macías were married on November 17 in the Oviedo town of Limanes. The news and denials surrounding the wedding have continued during the three months since November 17 without anyone being able to confirm its celebration until now. Well, NEW SPAIN has been able to learn from sources of absolute solvency in the family environment of the couple that the two-time Formula 1 world champion and the singer of “El Sueño de Morfeo” were married in the Church that day at the family home. from Alonso in Limanes and with all the papers in order. The person in charge of officiating the ceremony was a priest who was a friend of the bride and a native of Córdoba.

This corroborates the main details of a link that gave rise to all kinds of speculation, but which had never been confirmed. The first information is also good, which was published by the “Diario de Navarra” on November 22 and which LA NUEVA ESPAÑA later expanded.

The rumor mill around the wedding skyrocketed especially the weekend following the ceremony, when the couple – now husband and wife, we now know – left for the Maldives with a group of family and friends. It was said then that the pilot and the singer were leaving to get married in the Indian Ocean archipelago, but in reality it was a vacation that the couple wanted to give to their loved ones before enjoying the honeymoon. The mystery surrounding the trip to the Maldives contributed to even more confusion about the wedding. The trip was “all free of maximum luxury” with extreme instructions of silence and discretion and the express prohibition of taking photographs.

Now the terms of the denial that, measuring the words, prepared by the pilot's representative, Luis García Abad, on Monday, November 27, are perfectly understood. “Fernando Alonso and Raquel del Rosario did not marry in the Maldives,” the statement said. “I neither confirm nor deny,” the manager later added when asked by this newspaper if the wedding could have taken place elsewhere the previous weekend.

Everything remained there, in the air, without the news being definitively confirmed until now. The ceremony took place in the strictest privacy and LA NUEVA ESPAÑA announced at the time that the wedding could have been officiated by a priest who was a friend of the couple and who would not be Asturian. Once that storm of rumors had passed, the couple was photographed at the beginning of December in Hawaii, which was targeted as their “honeymoon” destination. Next, on December 8, Alonso and Del Rosario attended the Annual Gala of the International Automobile Federation, which was held in Monte Carlo and where the driver received the Formula 1 world champion trophy for the second consecutive year. .
