Ana Boyer was born on April 18, 1989, in Spain, to Miguel Boyer and Isabel Preysler. Miguel was Isabel’s third husband. Isabel had been previously married to Spanish singer-songwriter, Julio Iglesias, from 1971 to 1979 and then to the Marquis of Griñón, Carlos Falcó, from 1980 to 1985. Her marriage with Iglesias produced three children, two sons, Enrique Iglesias and Julio Iglesias, Jr. and one daughter, Chabeli Iglesias.

Miguel, on the other hand, had been previously married once, to gynaecologist and writer Elena Arnedo from 1964 to 1985. They had two children together, son Miguel Boyer Arnedo and daughter Laura Boyer Arnedo.

Miguel and Isabel married in 1987. A renowned economist who had worked as the director of planning for Union Explosivos Rio Tinto and as a senior economist at the Bank of Spain, Miguel had also served as the minister of economy, treasury and commerce of Spain from 1982 to 1985. Isabel was born in the Philippines but later moved to Spain and eventually received Spanish citizenship. She had been a famous model during her youth and still is a national spokesmodel for brands like Ferrero Rocher, Suárez jewellery, Manolo Blahnik shoes, Chrysler cars, and Porcelanosa tiles. She later became a journalist and television host and has been involved with several philanthropic organisations.
