    Although her experience at the academy is still limited, it has been enough for both her fans and the international press to give her a new nickname.

    What is Princess Leonor’s nickname?

    During a sports competition in which the princess participated along with her classmates, the images released by the Royal Household quickly went viral, capturing the public’s attention.

    The British newspaper “The Times” has been one of the media outlets that highlighted Princess Leonor, praising her professionalism and dubbing her the “Top Gun princess,” alluding to the famous movie that catapulted Tom Cruise to fame.

    In the article, it is mentioned that the next stage in the heiress’ training will be a third year at the Air Force Academy, which could open the door to the possibility of flying a fighter plane.

    This prospect has aroused media interest, which speculates about the exciting narratives that could emerge around the Princess.

    In addition, “The Times” highlights “Leonormania,” a phenomenon that has fueled a surge in the number of women seeking military training, inspired by the Princess of Asturias.

    This growing interest not only reflects Leonor’s influence but could also positively impact the perception of Spanish royalty.
