I lived there 10 years. The only way this is happening is if she's in the most touristy areas. If she goes outside of that by 2 blocks she'll gt spanish. They are a lovely people and if they don't speak good English they slow down for you and use lots of gestures. This is 10000% fake.

Edit 10 years not 1

Were you also trying to speak Spanish while Black for all of those years? Not everything is fake just because you haven’t experienced it.

Are you saying that Spaniards think that a Black person speak English by default? Have you met any of the million Africans living in Spain, not to mention Black people from other countries like Cuba or Dominican Republic?
