Since the 2024 Paris Olympic Games kicked off last Friday, July 26, we have seen Don Felipe with Doña Letizia in the French capital, Leonor and Sofía without their parents, and the Queen alone supporting Spanish athletes. After the consort’s return to Palma – where this Sunday she went to dinner with Felipe himself, his daughters and Doña Sofía – it was the king’s turn to return to Paris.
The Royal Family has shared on social media images of the monarch’s visit to the Olympic Village, a place that Letizia had already visited on August 2 on her third solo trip to Paris. The monarch, wearing a red polo shirt and his accreditation around his neck, was photographed this Monday with Olympic medalist Cristina Bucsawho this Tuesday lost in the Round of 64 to Chinese tennis player Yuan Yue. This Sunday she won bronze with Sara Sorribes as her doubles partner and against the Czech duo formed by Linda Noskova and Karolina Muchova.
King Felipe also posed and shared his impressions with other athletes from the Spanish Olympic Committee, as well as with workers and volunteers who are essential to the functioning and achievements of these days. He also took advantage of his visit to eat with our representatives. He chose a vegetable dish and a pasta dish.
The King was with the Queen at the opening ceremony, which was marked by rain, and then it was Leonor, Sofia and Letizia herself who in recent days have represented the institution and supported the athletes with great enthusiasm and closeness. This Sunday, as we said, the royal family went out to dinner in Palma with Doña Sofía and Irene of Greece. They were joined by Tatiana and Dr. Juan Fruchaud, friends of the emeritus. The King, who we have seen these days at the Copa del Rey MAPFRE Sailing Championship, enjoying one of his great passions, will be in Paris until Thursday. It will be next Sunday, August 11, when the 2024 Games end. Queen Sofia will attend the closing ceremony, taking over from her son.
