Prince Felipe had two serious affairs, one with a Spanish noblewoman Isabel Sartorius. She was the daughter of Vicente Sartorius y Cabeza de Vaca. The affair lasted for two years starting from 1989 to 1991; the reason for fallout was that Isabel's grandmother had a cocaine addiction that was not seen as a favorable to Spanish royalty.
Felipe's second alliance was with Eva Sannum, a Norwegian lingerie model. The royal family didn't approve their alliance either because of the professional background of Eva.
Felipe was finally engaged in a serious romance and kept his affair under wraps from the royal family and the media.
He officially announced his engagement to TV journalist Letizia Ortiz Rocasolano in November 2003.
Letizia remained the hot topic of the nation, owing to her commoner image and being a divorcee. Entire nation looked her as an independent woman who had an accomplished career and was cultured. But many people of Spain didn't approve her as she had no royal blood, and had no interaction with the citizens of Spain.
