Strange these rumours about a wedding jubilee present for Queen Sophia. The Torlonia aquamarine for 7 millions (absurd summe) or la Paiva - the jevels of a maitresse for the wife of an disloyal King? I would not be surprised if there was never a plan for such a expensive present at all. A Press campaign? To impertinent to call it a hoax.
