Busy morning for the kings in Rome. Don Felipe and Doña Letizia They began the day with a meeting with the president of the Italian Republic, Sergio Mattarella, and his daughter, at the Quirinal Palace to continue with a floral offering to the unknown soldier at the Altar of the Fatherland followed by a lunch with Georgia Meloni. The Prime Minister received their majesties at the doors of the Villa Doria Pamphilli where, after a relaxed greeting, they had an uncomfortable moment that quickly went viral on social networks.
Judging by the images, Mrs. Letizia was not clear about the protocol and was following the instructions of a member of the Italian team, who asked her to walk alone past the king and Meloni to the doors of the Villa. At this point, the royal consort’s confusion returned, as she did not know where to stand to pose for the photographers. Don Felipe spoke and indicated to his wife to stand to the left of the hostess with a friendly gesture. She, reluctant at first, finally accepted the order with a shy smile. A protocol failure that has been resolved as one more funny anecdote of the day and that has gone viral on social networks.
For this second day in Rome, the queen has chosen an exquisite two-piece tweed suit in pale pink. The fitted jacket had a delicate floral embroidery that combined with a pencil skirt with a back slit for easy passage. Her all-over pink ensemble is completed with slingback pumps and a short-handled bag in the same tone. A romantic and very sweet look that the foreign press has described as “elegant” and “sophisticated.”
