Don Felipe Juan Froilán de Todos los Santos de Marichalar y Borbón (born 17 July 1998), Madrid) is the eldest son of the Duchess of Lugo, Infanta Elena of Spain and Don Jaime de Marichalar. Don Felipe is fifth in the Line of succession to the Spanish Throne, after his mother.

He was named Felipe after his uncle the Prince of Asturias; Juan after his great-grandfather the Count of Barcelona; Froilán after the patron saint of Lugo (his parents are the Duke and Duchess of Lugo); and Todos los Santos (All Saints) as it is customary among the Bourbons. His godparents were his grandfather, Juan Carlos of Spain and his grandmother, Doña Concepción Sáez de Tejada. Although he is generally referred to by the press as Froilán so as not to confuse him with his uncle, the Prince of Asturias and cousin Juan Urdangarin; however he is called Felipe in the family. Felipe Juan Froilán currently attends the Santa Maria del Pilar School in Madrid[1][2].
