June is a busy month for Leonor. The Princess of Asturias is in the final stretch of her third year at the San Javier General Air Academy, and her schedule for the coming weeks is quite busy. Starting on June 1, the exams for the second semester begin, marking the start of a highly demanding period that will last until the 12th. These twelve days will determine her record in the Air Force and will shape everything else, including her institutional schedule. Why Leonor might miss Armed Forces Day this year Armed Forces Day is celebrated on May 30, an…

Back to work after Easter, and Letizia didn’t arrive in just any outfit. This Wednesday, she presided over the tenth-anniversary event for the Cámara de España’s Talento Joven program, an initiative that supports entrepreneurship among younger generations, and she did so in an outfit that made a strong statement. Outside, it was raining, but her look unapologetically evoked spring. A sand-colored tailored suit by Mirto, flowing and with a clean drape, paired with a Hugo Boss blouse that was undoubtedly the standout piece of the entire ensemble. Queen Letizia’s Hugo Boss blouse with a geometric print The blouse is the…

Amid a day of great symbolic significance, the moment that stuck in the memory was a small and entirely spontaneous one. As Charles III made his way to St. George’s Chapel on Easter Sunday, upon passing his grandchildren Charlotte and Louis, he turned and gave Louis a playful tap on the shoulder. For many, it was a spontaneous, unscripted moment, far from protocol. Just a grandfather greeting his seven-year-old grandson in his own way. At an event where every gesture is scrutinized, that moment was the one that garnered the most attention. Body language experts highlight Charles’s gesture toward Louis…

Princess Leonor is in her third year of military training, currently in the final phase at the General Air and Space Academy in San Javier, and she eats exactly the same food as her fellow cadets. No special menus or different treatment. The director of the academy himself made this clear before her arrival, explaining that she would live just like any fourth-year cadet, with the same schedules, the same internal rules, and the same meals. That said, there are special occasions when the routine changes a bit, and that’s where the story gets more interesting. What is the special…

In a queen’s wardrobe, some garments hold more history than meets the eye. On April 2, Mathilde of Belgium attended the opening of Be Philanthropy 2026, the King Baudouin Foundation’s conference held at the Autoworld museum in Brussels, wearing a bubblegum pink dress by Bernard Depoortere that those of us who closely follow her style know well—and not just because of the color. And it’s not just the color. Queen Mathilde’s Style at Be Philanthropy 2026 The dress features an open neckline and three-quarter sleeves and was first seen in April 2017, when Queen Mathilde wore it to welcome UN…

Prince Harry’s lawsuit against Associated Newspapers Limited, the publisher of the Daily Mail, has taken an unexpected turn, as something that wasn’t part of the Prince’s script has come to light. The messages in question are a series of Facebook messages exchanged between Harry and Charlotte Griffiths, then a journalist for the Mail on Sunday, between December 2011 and January 2012. This partly contradicts what Harry himself stated before the High Court in London in January of this year. In that statement, Harry said that he is not friends with journalists and that any information about his private life could…

Two days, two cities, two processions. Queen Sofia and her daughters, Infantas Elena and Cristina, experienced a very intense Holy Week in the Region of Murcia, as evidenced by the photos they shared. On Holy Thursday, they were in Cartagena for the Procession of Silence and the Most Holy Christ of the Miners, one of the city’s most solemn processions, organized by the California Confraternity. The mayor of the city welcomed them in Plaza del Rey and accompanied them throughout their visit, which included a walk through the historic center, a stop at the Cofradía’s headquarters, and signing the Book…

Princess Leonor is in the final stretch of her military training at the San Javier General Air Academy, and with that on the table, the most frequently asked question remains the same: What comes next? Leonor has served in all three branches of the military, learning to drive tanks and pilot aircraft, and now it’s time for a complete change of scenery. From military uniforms to university classrooms. It’s a big leap, and the decision to be made is no less significant, because the academic path of Spain’s future queen is not designed lightly. When will the Royal Household announce…

The Spanish royal family usually spends Holy Week in institutional silence, and when they make an appearance, it is always without prior notice. This time, it was King Felipe VI who surprised everyone, and not in Madrid but in Palma de Mallorca, an island where the family spends every summer but which the king had not visited at this time of year for several years. This change in schedule did not go unnoticed, especially since he arrived alone—without Letizia, Leonor, or Sofía. Where King Felipe VI was in Palma and who he dined with The King was spotted at Mia…

There is one detail in the story of the Sussexes’ interview with Oprah that had not come to light so clearly until now. According to royal historian Hugo Vickers, in his forthcoming biography of Queen Elizabeth II, Prince Philip was taken to St. Bartholomew’s Hospital in London on March 1, 2021, for heart surgery, during which his medical team “nearly lost him twice.” Prince Philip was admitted to St. Bartholomew’s Hospital in London on March 1, 2021, for heart surgery, during which his medical team “nearly lost him twice.” Six days later, on March 7, the Sussexes’ special aired on…

Sarah Ferguson has just lost one of the few honorary titles she still held. York City Council voted unanimously to strip her of the Freedom of the City, an honor she had been awarded in 1987 when she had just married the then Prince Andrew and was still the new bride of the royal family. This is the same honor that Winston Churchill had received years earlier, as had Judi Dench. In 2022, Andrew himself had already lost this honor, along with all his royal titles, due to his connections to Jeffrey Epstein. Now it’s her turn. Why York stripped…

The past two weeks have been some of the busiest for Charlene of Monaco. This week, she attended the opening of the new mother and baby unit at the Princess Grace Hospital Center, alongside Prince Albert. This space was designed with a very specific philosophy in mind: to allow parents to stay with their babies 24 hours a day throughout their hospital stay, in rooms designed to resemble a family environment as closely as possible. It’s a beautiful project, and Charlene arrived looking the part. What dress did Charlène of Monaco choose for her visit to the hospital? For the…
