early years
Isabel Preisler Arrastia was born in the Philippines, in the middle-class area of San Lorenzo (Manila). She became the third child of six children in an aristocratic family. She studied at the College Monjas de la Asuncion from a Catholic school. Due to the fact that she always behaved well and studied well, she was often chosen for the role of the Virgin Mary in local Christmas parades.
In childhood, she had a nickname - Chabeli. So she will name her first child - Chabeli Iglesias. According to Reina de Corazones (written by Paloma Barrientos), she met Gregorio Araneta, Charlie Lopez, and Bobby Santos as a teenager. Her older brother Enrique died in Hong Kong due to an overdose of heroin. Soon his second son, Enrique Iglesias, will be named after him. Joaquin, her other sibling, also had drug problems. But he successfully overcame them and now lives in Canada.
Isabel Preisler: biography and life
In her youth, Isabel took part in a charity beauty contest for the Sheraton Hotel in Manila and won brilliantly (despite her small growth - 1.7 meters). After this event, representatives of a magazine with a dubious reputation began to pursue a young model with the aim of cooperation. This seriously bothered her parents, and so at the age of 18 she was sent to Madrid to uncle and aunt to study the profession of an accountant at Mary Ward College of Irish Catholic University in Spain.
In 1970, at a party, she met a friend of the family, Julio Iglesias, who was then still an unknown singer. After 7 months, they got married. The couple was married for almost seven years, during which time they had three children: Chabeli, Julio Jr. and Enrique. At the same time, they did not complete their career growth: in 1971, overnight, the audience in Spain and in Latin America excited Isabel as a model, and Julio as a singer.

After some time, Preisler weddings with the former Minister of Finance of Spain Miguel Boyer, from whom she will have another daughter - Anna.
In 1984, she was chosen as the host of the Hoy television program. After that, the sponsors of this show put Preisler's photo on the packages of their products: Ferrero Rocher, jewelry Suárez and Porcelanosa.
In 1987, her two sisters with their families moved to Spain to be closer to Isabel. Soon, their father, Carlos Preisler, passed away. And her mother, Beatrice Preisler, still lives in Manila, where Isabel often comes with her children.
In 1991, 2002 and 2004, Spanish media recognized Isabel Preisler La Perla de Manila as the pearl of Manila. And readers of Hola magazine! voted to be the most elegant woman in Spain.
In 2001, she became a guest of honor at Prince Charles at the opening of a garden in England. In 2004, at a social party, she met David and Victoria Beckham.
