Mirko Saxony, Golden Bachelor and Physician Assistant

He is one of the golden bachelors, currently without a romantic partner, of the European aristocracy. Mirko Saxe-Coburg, eldest son of Bulgaria Kubrat and his wife Carla Royo Vilanova, princes of Panagyurishte, He lives a quiet life, dedicated in body and soul to his work as a surgeon at the San Carlos Clinical Hospital in Madrid, A publicly owned center located in the Moncloa neighborhood of Madrid, he has his family and his great passion for sports. A fellow health worker defines him as “a highly equipped doctor specializing in gastroenterology, a wonderful and very kind person. He is highly regarded in the hospital and enjoys the full confidence of his superiors. He is otherworldly and never proud of his social standing (few know that he will be a prince of Panagyurishte in the future) , it is very simple and down to earth.

In the same week, on Wednesday 26 April, he celebrated his 28th birthday at the Seville April Fair. He is a great admirer of his grandfather, King Simeon of Bulgaria. And his father, a surgeon like him, describes him as “two great references in this life.”

Mirko is the eldest of Carla’s three children, his younger siblings are Lukas – who is also a doctor – and Tirso, He studied medicine at the University of Navarre and completed his training in the United States. He completed training in Cardiothoracic Surgery at the Royal Brompton Hospital in the United Kingdom, before finally settling in Spain. He is now a third-year resident specializing in gastrointestinal surgery.

Very jealous of his personal life, we know that in 2018 he took part in the Paris novitiate ball, as a musketeer, accompanied by the splendid Countess Gabrielle de Portale, with whom he was a great friend. But his place is more in the operating room than in social events. His father instilled in him a love of water sports. As we say, he is a great surfer, and when the weather is good, he uses his weekends to go with his gang of friends to the San Juan Reservoir, near Madrid, to practice water skiing. In addition, he is a big fan of kayaking. He loves to participate in “home” competitions with his friends. And if he wants, he can devote himself professionally to this kind of sport. His beginnings in these disciplines were at the Berria de Santoña School. In Cantabria they know his family well, because Santander and the neighboring towns have always been a traditional Saxe-Coburg holiday destination. Other places he usually travels to enjoy his nautical hobbies are the beaches of Cadiz, especially Tarifa, or the Murcian cape in Balos. Master the waves like a great expert.

From Baqueira to Formigal

In winter, he usually skis in the resorts of Baqueira and Formigal. And he’s a big fan of high displacement and luxury cars: his favorite is the Lamborghini. Hunting is one of his hobbies, and several times a year he participates in hunting. His reputation as a good way precedes him. He likes to share evening rest and meals with other hunters. He is also considered a good dancer, and shows it off at disco nights. One of his favorite entertainment venues in Madrid is Kapital. Sometimes he goes there with friends like Jaime de Borbón dos Cecilias, Cosima Ramirez (daughter of Agatha Ruiz de la Prada) and Victoria Lopez Quesada dos Cecilias. His favorite music group is Taburete and he is a devoted follower of his singing cousin Mafalda, daughter of Kirill and Rosario Nadal, whom he idolizes very much.

Ideologically, he is closer to the politicians of the Popular Party, whom he follows on social networks, especially Esperanza Aguirre, Alberto Núñez Vigo and José María Aznar. He’s a great traveler, and if he has to remember a particular holiday, he doesn’t hesitate to say “It was in 2018, when I went with my parents, brothers, uncles and cousins ​​to a ski resort in Bulgaria. We spent our Christmas holidays there and really enjoyed the trip.”

The family union is indissoluble. Mirko was raised with values ​​in which respect for others, perseverance, humility, loyalty, and solidarity are central to his education. People around you know that very well. Carla always said: «I feel so proud of my children, the three are smart, affectionate and have a great culture. They know how to talk about everything. Since my birth I have become a more patient woman. Which of them looks more like me? They all have something from their father and mother. Mirko is a very responsible boy, he lives with us and is an excellent athlete.

My husband has inherited a love of sports. Perhaps because they share a profession, they understand each other better with their father. But he also feels an undying love for Carla. Of course, Kubrat from Bulgaria is a father, friend and confidant.
