Waiter Albert Sola claims King Juan Carlos of Spain is his father, and met his mother during a trip to Barcelona in the 1950s

A Spanish waiter and a Belgian housewife have joined forces in an attempt to prove they are the illegitimate children of the King of Spain.

Albert Sola, 55, has already had DNA tests done which show there is a 91 per probability he is the half-brother of a woman whose mother pointed at Juan Carlos on the television and told her: 'Hes your dad.'

Belgian Ingrid Sartiau met Albert for the first time 10 days ago in a hotel in north east Spain after contacting him over the Internet.

The pair are now said to be considering legal action to force Juan Carlos to accept they were born to mistresses and recognise them as his children.

Dad-of-two Albert, who used to run a successful metal firm in Mexico, has already sent several faxes addressed Dear Father to the 17th century La Zarzuela palace near Madrid where the King lives with his long-suffering wife Sofia and their family.

He said: 'Im convinced Im King Juan Carlos son. Ingrid and I are going to send a fax to La Zarzuela to inform them of the results of the DNA tests and see where we go from there.'

Albert, who lives and works in a small village outside Girona, was adopted as a child and grew up in Ibiza before moving to Barcelona.

He claims the Spanish King, said to have bedded more than 1,500 women in a Don Juan-style romantic career, met his birth mum during a trip to the Catalan capital in the fifties from a military academy in Zaragoza where he was studying.
