During her princess years, Joy He has been criticized for his excessive zeal in protecting the image of his daughters when they were young. We see very little of them. was the argument that settled in the minds of many voices. Over time, young women have also found their space. Now Leonor y Sofia They perform their own acts.
The Princess of Asturias and her sister have always gone hand in hand with their parents. In all the acts, from the moment that Leonor received the Toisón on the occasion of the 50th birthday of Felipe VI in 2018, the princess has followed in his footsteps. At 13 she spoke her first words in public. She climbed on a red upholstered drawer to get to the microphone. She looked at her father. She read Article 1 of the Constitution at the Cervantes headquarters in Madrid. Don Felipe stayed with her during those 40 seconds. Her mother held her breath. At the end, the princess threw herself into her arms. It was the first photograph of Letizia excited, in public, with her daughter. The hug composed an image of a proud mother.
Now Leonor presides over acts alone. Her prominence is increasing. If her father represents the new times, she represents the horizon, the continuity and the future of the monarchy. Nothing less. To walk that path to the throne, she has her father to guide her; and mother, for example. The culture of perseverance, tenacity, dedication and perfectionism in her work come from her. She is seen in Eleanor’s speeches. Behind the diction, rehearsed and trained, is the Queen. She is also seen when they borrow clothes. A loan that transmits maximum confidence between mother and daughters. It is the emotional closet.
The princess faces her second year at the UWC Atlantic College in Wales away from her family. She is greatly missed at home, but her Welsh experience helps her to gain autonomy, independence and make decisions. She now faces her big date in Oviedo, at the Princess of Asturias Awards; and within a year, the age of majority.
Her role as a mother transcends and helps her connect with the little ones. When she interacts with children she crouches down, seeks eye contact and talks to them. The children bring out the most spontaneous and natural version of the queen. Letizia focuses on childhood and education. In the last edition of the Book Fair she was interested in manga and the promotion of reading and she was concerned about the responsible use of video games. She is also concerned about cybersecurity and children’s digital consumption.
