The photographs of the princess of Asturias having fun last Tuesday at a carnival party in Salvador de Bahia have already turned the world. And not only because in them we can see the most informal and youthful image of the heiress, with Boho-Chic Top and the hair tied in a horset A simple partner. But, as José Luis Perales would say, and who is he?
He is 20 years old and is from Madrid, where he grew up to the shelter of a very well -off family. Great student, very smart, took one of the best EBAU notes in the community, according toTARand so he could fulfill his dream: to enter the Naval School of Marín, from where he will become Ensign of Navío, an important position within the military hierarchy. It is also a great athlete, very fond of regattas (in which he has even competed) and the Bádminton, hobbies he shares with other family members, such as King Felipe VI or Pablo Urdangarin.
Leonor and his friend met last August, when the heiress entered Marín to start her second year of military formation, thus following her father’s footsteps. The connection between the two was instantaneous, so much that, in October, they could be seen in a well -known pub in the center of Pontevedra in a very complicit attitude: “They were alone, watching the game between Real Madrid and Celta. He was supported by the Wall, next to the bar, and she said things in the ear. “When I went to take my mobile for a photo, his escort prevented me. They have been together since October, at least,” he said.
If this were true, the friendship between Leonor and this young man march in the stern and full candle. His experience in the Juan Sebastián Elcano school ship would have joined them even more. They embarked on January 11 in Cádiz and stopped in Tenerife and the Canary Islands before crossing the Atlantic for 23 days of crossing. Salvador de Bahia has been his first bearing in Latin America and in his last night before embarking again, Rumbo Montevideo (Uruguay), were soaked in the fun and culture of Carioca in a samba concert prior to the carnivals. Here, according to the Brazilian photographer Fed Montes, they were affectionate: “She kissed her of her cogote and he turned around and kissed her lips.”
And, in addition to being a princess and heiress to the Spanish throne, Leonor is also a 19 -year -old girl with the right (and desire) to have fun and live the experiences that correspond to him by age, as his father, Felipe VI, did in his day , who also lived great romances with AV, a young Pontevedra; Isabel Sartorius or Gigi Howard.
