Gómez-Acebo attended Karol G’s triumphant performance at her first concert in the capital, and with a few words at the microphones she highlighted the important role that the princess is playing. Recently, Leonor made her first official solo trip to Portugal and, soon, she will travel to Paris to support the national athletes in their fight for the gold medal at the Olympic Games: “Leonor is a very well prepared girl and she is doing wonderfully well”Gomez-Acebo stated.
