Isabel Preysler Releases Autobiography ‘Mi verdadera historia’ With Candid Revelations

The 74-year-old socialite uses a first-person account to challenge long-standing myths about her life.

Overview

  • Published by Espasa in the Planeta group, the memoir went on sale today as outlets report excerpts from her exclusive ¡Hola! interview.
  • She recounts marrying Julio Iglesias while pregnant in 1971 and says she later obtained an annulment in Brooklyn, a decision that led to nearly two years of estrangement from her mother.
  • Preysler describes Miguel Boyer as “the great love of my life” and recalls being unable to say goodbye when he died at Madrid’s Ruber clinic.
  • Regarding Mario Vargas Llosa, she writes that doctors diagnosed him with multiple myeloma in 2019 and says she was the one who informed him, sharing personal letters and memories of their relationship.
  • She claims a family connection to actor Steve McQueen and frames the book as reputation-setting, while opinion pieces predict strong sales and suggest potential interest in a screen adaptation.
