It appears that Prince Andrew’s fate within the British royal family has reached a definitive conclusion. King Charles III’s brother has been officially removed from Royal Lodge, the 30-room mansion in Windsor that had been his home for over two decades. However, in a curious—and quite British—British twist, Andrew will receive compensation that could exceed half a million pounds. The decision is accompanied by a complete restructuring of his public identity. He will no longer be referred to as “His Royal Highness” or “Duke of York,” but simply as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, a name that ties him…

Every year, following the grand gala of the Princess of Asturias Awards, one of my favorite moments arrives: the royal family’s visit to the Exemplary Village. In 2025, the destination was Valdesoto, a beautiful parish in Siero surrounded by green meadows that seem like something from an Asturian postcard. And, as is tradition, the King and Queen and their daughters not only brought warmth and excitement, but also a great deal of style. Queen Letizia once again demonstrated practicality, choosing an outfit that suited the terrain while maintaining her signature style. She chose a short navy…

Infanta Sofia demonstrated a very distinct and well-defined style. At the 2025 Princess of Asturias Awards, the youngest member of the royal family chose a look that exuded strength and character, making it clear that she is no longer the “little one” of the Royal Household, but a young woman with her own identity and taste. Her choice, a burgundy dress with transparencies and layers by the Spanish firm Miphai, was undoubtedly one of the most talked-about of the evening. The design, featuring soft lines yet a strong presence, is part of the Amber model from Miphai’s…

Princess Leonor once again took the stage at the Campoamor Theater, and she did so with a confidence that, while no longer surprising, was nonetheless moving. Her speech at the Princess of Asturias Awards was the longest to date, and also one of the most personal. Those who saw her speak for the first time in 2019 will remember a somewhat nervous teenager; today, however, we saw a future queen with her own voice, capable of connecting with her generation and those before it. When she described herself as “a Gen Z daughter of an Xer and…

Queen Letizia once again turned the Princess of Asturias Awards into her best runway. This time, she surprised everyone with something that rarely happens: she wore the same dress twice. But she did it so masterfully that no one would have noticed at first glance. The mother of Princess Leonor and Infanta Sofia chose a black strapless design from the Spanish firm Sybilla, the same one she wore months ago at the Mariano de Cavia Awards, but now reinvented with a fresh and very elegant touch. The silk crepe dress, featuring an inner corset, was transformed…

Oviedo once again became the stage where Princess Leonor shone with her own light. At the Princess of Asturias Awards, the heiress chose a purple dress with a jacquard print from H&M. Yes, it was a low-cost design, but it had the right touch of distinction that already characterizes the eldest daughter of the king and queen. Leonor chose a design that stands out not only for its unusual color, but also for its thoughtful simplicity. It’s a midi dress with a youthful vibe that was slightly customized: the sleeves, originally open, were closed with jeweled buttons,…

It appears Meghan Markle is once again at the center of a media storm, this time not due to a new project or public appearance, but rather a more internal issue: the departure of her tenth public relations manager in just five years. Emily Robinson, who came from Netflix with strong credentials and experience on The Crown, resigned just three months after taking the position. According to a close source, “things must have been pretty horrible,” suggesting that the experience within the Sussex team was not exactly easy. Robinson had worked on campaigns for series that were…

Oviedo has awakened to the rhythm of bagpipes and anticipation. As is the case every year, the Hotel de la Reconquista has been the epicenter of the audiences preceding the Princess of Asturias Awards, an event that combines both protocol and intimacy. The entire royal family – the King and Queen, Princess Leonor, and Princess Sofia – upheld tradition by greeting award winners, officials, and students on a day filled with anecdotes and memorable moments. Since their arrival, fashion has also taken center stage. All three royals wore suits, but each with their own personal touch:…

Oviedo once again brimmed with style and tradition during the highly anticipated concert preceding the Princess of Asturias Awards, an annual event that brings together the Royal Family at the Príncipe Felipe Auditorium. This year, 2025, was no exception, and once again, Queen Letizia, Princess Leonor, and Infanta Sofía demonstrated that coordination and style are also part of royal protocol. The three women of the Spanish royal family opted for dark tones—ranging from blue to black—and showcased three distinct interpretations of fashion, all rooted in the same language: sophistication. Queen Letizia chose a simple outfit,…

Every October, Oviedo becomes the epicenter of Spanish royalty, and this year was no exception. The Royal Family once again presided over the traditional concert preceding the Princess of Asturias Awards, an event that combines music and style. The Príncipe Felipe Auditorium once again erupted with applause and cameras, welcoming King Felipe VI, Queen Letizia, and their daughters, Princess Leonor and Infanta Sofia, who returned to Spain specifically for this occasion. Leonor, who interrupted her military training at the General Air and Space Academy, arrived radiant and smiling, while Sofía traveled from Lisbon, where she is in…

What just happened at the Vatican will go down in history. King Charles and Pope Leo prayed together in the Sistine Chapel, a gesture not seen in nearly five hundred years, since Henry VIII broke with Rome and established the Church of England. Hearing the Latin chants echo beneath Michelangelo’s frescoes, with the English monarch seated beside the pontiff, was more than a religious symbol; it was a scene charged with political, spiritual, and, above all, human meaning. They say there was an atmosphere of reverence and respect. Pope Leo, the first American pontiff, elected just…

Infanta Sofia continues to gain ground in her role within the royal family, progressing steadily and without haste. This time, the youngest daughter of King Felipe and Queen Letizia was welcomed by the President of Portugal, Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa, at the Belém Palace. A brief but meaningful encounter. The images released by the Royal Household were enough to show a serene, polite, and fully aware Sofia of the role she is beginning to play in the public sphere. This visit follows her participation in the Hispanic Day parade and her first official reception at…
