Mayor of Madrid

In December 27 2011 was elected Mayor of Madrid, after the resignation of Alberto Ruiz-Gallardón, due to the latter being designated Minister of Justice. She is the first female Mayor of the city. She has been criticised for failure to tackle Madrid's air pollution which frequently exceeds permitted levels in the city.[2]

Family life

She is the wife of the former Spanish prime minister José María Aznar.

Ana Botella and José María Aznar married in 1977, and have three children: José María Aznar Botella, Ana Aznar Botella, and Alonso Aznar Botella. Their daughter married on 5 September 2002 Alejandro Tarik Agag Longo in a lavish ceremony at El Escorial.[3] Ana Botella has four grandchildren, Alejandro (born 4 June 2004 in Madrid), Rodrigo (born 13 December 2005 in Madrid), Pelayo (born 20 January 2008 in Madrid) and Alonso (born 22 December 2010 in Madrid) Agag Aznar.[4]
