Genoveva Casanova has become one of the main protagonists of today. The photographs of the former Duchess of Salvatierra and Prince Frederick of Denmark walking together through Madrid have caused talk throughout Europe, causing many to begin to investigate the origins of this unexpected friendship.
The Mexican businesswoman is arousing a lot of interest among the Scandinavian media. More so since she herself revealed that she visited Copenhagen a little over a month ago. A trip to the Danish capital in which she also revealed that her great-grandfather had donated a series of objects to the National Museum, personally imported across the Atlantic.
However, it is not the only connection of Cayetano Martínez de Irujo's ex-wife with the Nordic country, since she herself has the same connection in her family tree. Specifically, through her grandmother, who was Danish.
As published by the sensational media SE og HØR, Genoveva Casanova's maternal grandmother belonged to one of the "most elegant and richest families in the Nordic country." She was Lykke Reimann Nyeboe, daughter of the wealthy Danish shipowner Arnold Eugen Reimann, great-grandfather of Genoveva Casanova; as revealed by BT, another local media that closely follows the Mexican socialite.
Reimann was the owner and founder of the shipping company Motortramp A/S, two years after he had become co-owner of the Orient steamship company. With an empire in his hands, years later he would merge with the Norden shipping company, which is currently run by Reimann's direct heirs.
Lykke Reimann married Avelino González Fernández, son of the Asturian anarcho-syndicalist Avelino González Mallada; with whom she had a daughter, Genoveva's mother: Mariana González-Reimann.
Genoveva Casanova had the opportunity to be part of one of the most important families in our country, being considered one of the closest people to Cayetana de Alba. The Mexican and her former mother-in-law always showed off their splendid relationship, and it was even said that the businesswoman was the aristocrat's favorite daughter-in-law.
The Mexican also has a model relationship with her ex-husband and father of her children, Cayetano Martínez de Irujo. Both had their problems during their divorce, but they knew how to overcome them and resume a cordial relationship, including the Mexican with Bárbara Mirjan, current girlfriend of the Duke of Salvatierra.
