The disability claim requested by four of the eight children he had Fernando Fernandez Tapias of his three marriages has been news that has surprised both the business world and the ship’s friends. On March 1, they went to Court of First Instance number 65 in Madrid to meet face to face with their father and his wife, Nuria González. The four applicants would be Fernando, Borja, Sandra and Juan Carlos, known as Tito.

For all intents and purposes, and according to witnesses, there were no warm greetings between the plaintiffs and the defendant. Much less with Nuria, who came accompanied by her lawyer. In reality, the dispute did not have to do with her directly, although it did in a collateral way. According to the information to which Vanitatis has had access, this judicial staging would have to do with the economic future of companies who founded and created the vice president of Real Madrid. He has always recognized that the help of the father of his first wife, Victoria Rivas, mother of his four first children (Fernando, Íñigo, Borja and Bosco), was essential for the launch. But from that first help, the businessman created his patrimonial network that, when the owner was missing, the descendants could claim.
“The children know that they are not going to get that disability, but it would be a gesture so that in the future there are no movements regarding changes in the ownership of the heritage and, therefore, that these decisions have an impact on the inheritance they can receive. In this way, the demand would remain there as testimony even though the resolution of now does not contemplate any incapacity ”.
Posts to talk with Santiago Ortiz, lawyer for the plaintiffs, to confirm this information and others that have reached Vanitatis, his explanation is as follows: “These are strictly private matters and it is sad that there is interest in them. And that interests the lives of others. As a lawyer I maintain the privacy of my clients. The only thing I can say is that there is no confrontation between the children and that there is no financial issue involved ”. By Fernandez Tapias, their legal representatives have not shown signs of life and prefer to remain silent.
The origin of the confrontation
The history of this filial confrontation, which Santiago Ortiz denies, would go back years. The couple married, under a separation of property regime, on October 14, 2002 at the La Peñuela farm, owned by Fermín Bohórquez, a friend of the groom. Tapias, at 82 years old and in poor health, as he himself has assured after his last admission, has in Nuria Gonzalez her great support, and mutual friends do not understand the apparent hostility towards her that could be the final reason for the disability claim and not Tapias.
In recent times, the businessman did not usually go to the office and it was his daughter Sandra, right hand man and personal secretary, who brought him various documents to the Puerta de Hierro family mansion for him to sign. There were circumstances that complicated this situation and it was then that certain frictions appeared between them that caused a third person to intervene to supervise the papers signed by the employer.

There are two versions for this turning point: one, that the children reported by Sandra were upset, and another, that it was the father himself who decided to supervise absolutely everything to be sure that he had not signed any document without noticing. There could have been a difficult first moment, but if we pay attention to the children’s lawyer, there was no filial breakdown. What is more difficult to understand is that if the employer’s relationship with the children is indeed null, as is rumored, what is the purpose of a lawsuit that will not agree with them?
As some witnesses such as Florentino Pérez and Lalo Azcona, Fernando Fernández Tapias has full intellectual capacity to run his businesses. Unless it is a strategy to separate the wife from any patrimonial claim.
Currently, Fernando, Borja and Íñigo do not have any labor responsibility in their father’s companies. Juan Carlos was appointed president of the shipping company.
