Countdown to the great date of Carlos III. And also, for his wife, Camilla. On Saturday, May 6, they will be crowned in Westminster Abbey, before 2,000 guests, including royalty, heads of state, presidents and prime ministers from countries around the world. There is a prior appointment, Friday the 5th. It is the pre-coronation reception, in which kings and heirs will meet. In this case, heirs. Our kings will go Philip VI y Mrs. Letizia, but the princess of Asturias will not attend. Why is the arrival of the heiresses from Sweden, the Netherlands and Belgium scheduled and Leonor’s is not scheduled?
Felipe VI and Queen Letizia will go to the pre-coronation reception at Buckingham Palace on Friday the 5th, whose honorary host is Charles III. Representatives of all the European royal houses will meet at the emblematic headquarters of the Windsors: King William and Máxima of Holland, accompanied by the heiress, Amalia, and by Queen Beatriz, mother of the monarch; King Philippe of Belgium, with his daughter, the heiress Isabel; Princes Frederick and Mary of Denmark; and King Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden and his daughter, Victoria, the heiress. Precisely, Isabel studied Baccalaureate at the same boarding school as the daughter of Don Felipe and Doña Letizia, at UWC Atlantic College. Like Alexiathe sister of Amalia de Orange, who is Leonor’s classmate.
In this reception we will see, then, three European heiresses. This cannot be a coincidence. However, there will be no princess of asturias. The kings of three European houses have decided to give space and prominence to their successors in this scenario that is located in the first level of news focus in the world. A circumstance that has not occurred in the case of the Casa del Rey. At the very least, it has to call our attention.
