A few weeks ago, the Spanish royal family was shaken by a hoax that circulated on social media, a false image of Princess Leonor that unleashed the concern of Queen Letizia.
This situation has highlighted one of the monarch’s greatest fears: the exposure of her eldest daughter to the lies that proliferate in the digital world.
Queen Letizia worried about Princess Leonor
Princess Leonor, who recently turned 18, is at a crucial stage in her life.
As heir to the throne and future queen of Spain, her education and responsibilities have increased significantly.
However, this process has also brought with it increased public exposure and a growing interest in every aspect of her personal life.
For Queen Letizia, this situation represents an unprecedented challenge.
Over the years, she has fought tirelessly to protect the privacy and image of her daughters, providing them with as normal a childhood and adolescence as possible.
It is no secret that both Leonor and her sister, Infanta Sofia, enjoy great popularity among young people.
Hundreds of Leonor and Sofia fan accounts flood the most popular social media.
However, with Leonor’s coming of age, her life has become the subject of public scrutiny, and hoaxes on social media pose a constant threat.
The recent hoax that circulated on social media, an image purportedly of Princess Leonor that turned out to be an Artificial Intelligence creation, has highlighted the controversies facing the royal family.
According to Spanish media, the rapid spread of the photograph sparked the concern of Queen Letizia, who has been the victim of numerous attacks in recent months and knows firsthand the damage they can cause.
In this context, the monarch has become a fervent advocate for the protection of her daughters’ image and privacy.
Her goal is to provide them with a safe environment free from attacks and lies, in which they can develop and prepare for their future responsibilities without being affected by the shadows of the digital world.
