Inés Arrimadas, former leader of Ciudadanos, and Guillermo Díaz, also a former representative of the same political party, have made their romantic relationship public. The new couple wanted to make this romance official by appearing together at Holy Week in Malaga.

Thus, the couple has been seen being very affectionate during the Cristo de Mena procession. This sweet scene symbolizes a new chapter in Arrimadas’ life after her separation from Xavier Cima, with whom she shared seven years of marriage and has two children.

The confirmation of their divorce in November, after moving to Jerez, Arrimadas’ hometown, had fueled speculation about a possible relationship with Díaz. The public appearance of the couple during Holy Week in Malaga has confirmed that the suspicions were founded.

Sources close to both have indicated to La Otra Crónica that the relationship between Arrimadas and Díaz has strengthened over time, based on a deep friendship that they shared since their time in the Congress of Deputies. Now they have decided to stage their love with a passionate kiss in the middle of Holy Week.

As the supplement has pointed out, this story goes back a long way. It is the true example of how a friendship can transition into something more over time and if the right circumstances are given. According to La Otra Crónica, the two admired each other greatly and were very united when it came to fighting nationalism.

Once Arrimadas’ divorce was confirmed, they built their relationship little by little until Díaz asked him to accompany him during Holy Week, a tradition that means a lot to him, especially the transfer of the Christ of the Good Death on the shoulders of the legionaries to their processional throne.

At the moment, they do not live together but they do live very close. Arrimadas resides in Jerez, in the province of Cádiz, while her new boyfriend lives in Malaga, where he has resumed his career at the City Council. However, distance is not an impediment to her love, since the driving distance is relatively short.
