2024 has been a momentous year for the Spanish royal family, and the Royal Household wanted to close this cycle by sharing on its official Instagram account a series of photo albums dedicated to each member of the family.
In them, key moments that reflect the public and personal life of King Felipe VI, Queen Letizia and their daughters, Princess Leonor and Infanta Sofia, are compiled.
Princess Leonor’s Highlights of 2024
Among these albums, the one dedicated to Princess Leonor has captured attention.
With 20 carefully selected images, it offers a glimpse of the achievements and highlights of a particularly important year for the heir to the throne.
2024 marked the coming of age of Leonor, who at 18 assumed responsibilities befitting her position.
Among the photos selected by the Royal Household is the beginning of her military training, a step that has brought her even closer to the traditions of the Spanish monarchy.
The images show the princess wearing the uniform of the Naval Military Academy of Marin and being decorated with the Grand Cross of Military Merit.
In one of the most emotional photos, she is seen embracing her parents after being named student ensign by King Felipe.
The album also includes photographs of Leonor’s first solo international trip.
In July, the princess visited Portugal, marking a milestone in her public life and making it clear that she is ready to represent Spain on international stages.
The images not only reflect her growth as a future queen, but also her closeness with her family.
Among the photos, moments shared with her sister Sofia stand out, such as her presence at sporting events to support Spanish athletes, and her participation in the Princess of Asturias Awards 2024, an event that brought the family together in their homeland.
In another memorable moment, Leonor received the title of Honorary Mayor of Oviedo and the medal of Asturias, a day where the heiress assumed a leading role with great naturalness.
The album concludes with a photograph full of meaning: Leonor, together with her parents and sister, posing on the day that marked the 10th anniversary of the proclamation of Felipe VI as King.
In the image, the princess looks at her father with a mixture of pride and admiration, closing this summary of the year with a picture that reflects her role in the future of the Spanish monarchy.
This photo carousel shows Leonor’s evolution and highlights her values such as commitment, family unity and preparation for the challenges ahead.
