    The confirmation of the infanta Sofia has left great images that reveal how is the relationship of the royals inside the Zarzuela Palace.

    Gestures of love and looks of pride were not lacking in the photos that were shared by the Spanish media, but here we will focus on those in which Princess Leonor appears with her grandmother, Queen Sofia, photos that have not been seen since last summer when the two walked together in Mallorca.

    How is the relationship between Leonor and her grandmother Sofia?

    To begin with, although the protagonist of the day was the Infanta Sofia, there is no denying that Leonor, 17, is also an eye-catcher every time she appears, so many photographers focused on the behavior of the heiress.

    The future queen of Spain, who returned home this week after finishing her classes at UWC Atlantic College in Wales, was more affectionate than ever with Queen Emeritus Sofia.

    One of the images of the day has been the one that showed Princess Leonor accompanying her grandmother Sofia when they had already finished posing for the press in front of the Asunción Nuestra Señora de Caravacas church in Madrid.

    The princess has gone to the side of her paternal grandmother and passed her arm over her shoulder as a sign of affection, a gesture that has not gone unnoticed by any of those present. She also walked with her holding her hand.

    This gesture denotes that Princess Leonor has a special affection for the mother of Felipe VI and wanted her to feel accompanied on this day, on which King Juan Carlos I was not present.

    It has also been quite an affectionate and attentive gesture of the Princess of Asturias when she has gone to warn all the grandparents who were waiting for the family pose to finish so they could join the rest of the group and have a photo of all attendees.

    The images dismiss all rumors of the strained relationship between Leonor and the emeritus queen, who was not present at the graduation of her granddaughter Leonor in Wales. This event was only attended by the monarchs and the sister of the Princess of Asturias.
