MAJORCAN-born Victoria de Vivero who studied Economics in Dublin, is to stand for the new Convergencia party at the forthcoming local elections on 22nd May.
Attractive and well-educated, Victoria had originally wanted to be a lawyer but her time in Ireland enabled her to fine-tune her linguistic skills. She speaks English as if it were her mother tongue but of course also has complete command over Castillian Spanish and Catalan and to a lesser extent, German.
Whilst in Dublin, Victoria made a point of learning how to handle the latest technology which had been developed as accounting aids and she ended up working for an American software company. The combination of her academic background and computing skills sealed the future of her career. Victoria was later to produce her own television series on social, cultural and industrial changes that had been documented in Ireland in recent years.
Victoria claims Allegra Curtis, the daughter of the late Hollywood legend amongst her friends.
There are some things that Allegra and I have in common, Victoria said yesterday.
She was very close to her father and I to my grandfather who was also a legend in his own right. He took part in several military campaigns for which he was highly decorated, including being made a Knight of the Holy Sepulchre of Jerusalem.
The party Victoria will be representing at the elections has emerged from the ashes of the old Majorcan Unionist (UM) party, now disgraced after implication in several corruption scandals. But Victoria was defiant: The UM has achieved a great deal for Majorca, she said.
