QuoteToday, Infanta Margarita of Spain celebrates her 76th birthday. She's the younger sister of King Juan Carlos as well as Duchess of Soria and 2nd Duchess of Hernani.

Margarita has been blind since birth and thus she's almost always seen walking arm in arm with one or two of her family members.

In 1972, she married physician Carlos Zurita y Delgado. Upon the marriage, she gave up her place in the line of succession. They have two children together, Alfonso Juan Carlos Zurita y de Borbón born in 1973 and María Sofía Emilia Carmen Zurita y de Borbón born in 1975.

Happy birthday to the Infanta Margarita who has IMO created a wonderful life for herself in spite of her blindness. I read that she would take a bus to the university by herself in order to complete her education.
