Letizia turned 52 this Sunday. Her birthday was the subject of headlines on digital media and television shows. Her profile, her career, this summer in Paris and the trip to the cinema with Felipe VI to see the premiere of the film Alien Romulus at the Ideal, in the heart of Madrid, together with Sol. “Queen Letizia is at her best,” were the words of Pilar Vidal in The RockJuan del Val also expressed his opinion.
Letizia’s birthday gave us a lot to talk about. She reviewed her career, from her arrival at Zarzuela in 2004, her ten years as Princess of Asturias and her ten years as Queen. A turning point in her journey in the institution. Juan del Val, writer and screenwriter, launched his reflection on the set of his wife, Nuria Roca: “Those who speak ill of Queen Letizia are not anti-monarchists, they are ‘Juancarlistas’.”
Furthermore, Del Val, who knows Letizia personally from having met her at the Book Fair, has commented that in the palace “there are two currents.” And within those two currents, “there are two sensibilities.” “To me,” he stressed, “Letizia seems more like a republican queen than a monarchist one.”
Juan del Val met Letizia at the Book Fair in 2019, when the author was signing his book Candela.
