No, he was king consort, something that other European royal husbands have vindicated to date. In that sense, Spanish royals proved to be equalitarian. The fact of his being a Spanish Infante may have been taken into account too. |

Not sure where to post this, so in general history of Spain: is Spain in any position to take back Puerto Rico? They need help desperately and it looks like the country they officially have an affiliation with isn’t up to helping as much as it should/is obligated to. Would they ever vote to go with Spain again?
