Duchess of Alba's Honeymoon

Returning to Seville after their honeymoon, Alfonso Diez and Cayetana Fitz-James Stuart, the Duchess of Alba, shown here with Carmen Tello, right, who was the Matron of Honor at their wedding.
For those still wanting more on the billionaire newlywed Cayetana Fitz-James Stuart, the Duchess of Alba, photos of her honeymooning in France have surfaced in the Spanish magazine HOLA!
Les Pres d'Eugenie.
The couple were guests at Les Pres d'Eugenie, a luxury hotel in the hamlet of Eugenie-les-Baines in southwestern France.  The area is so named because it was favored by Empress Eugenie de Montijo, the wife of Napoleon III, and the sister of Cayetana's great-grandmother.

Owned by celebrity chef Michel Guerard, the restaurant is well-known for excelling in three cuisines:  the slimming spa menu, the extraordinary gourmet food, and the traditional country cooking.
