Every summer, the same question arises: where are Leonor and Sofía when their parents disappear from the public eye? This time, the mystery is even greater.
We know that Felipe and Letizia headed to Greece after their visit to Palma, but the curious thing is that there is not a single official clue about the princesses. No photos, no press releases, no casual references. Absolute silence.
The most widely discussed theory is that the entire family has been staying at the villa of Máxima and Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands in Spetses.
It is a luxury home with a swimming pool, tennis court, and even a private harbor. The perfect place to disconnect without anyone bothering them.
And if that’s the case, it wouldn’t just be a break, but also a gesture of closeness between two royal families who, even if they don’t say it out loud, have an increasingly strong bond.
Now, what about the girls? It makes sense to think that they have stayed with their parents. After all, summers are almost the only time they can get together.
Leonor continues her demanding military training and Sofia is about to start university in Lisbon. Their schedules keep them apart, but these kinds of family retreats serve to strengthen their bond.
What is interesting is how everything is handled with discretion. While in other royal houses the heirs appear at international events, here there seems to be a clear decision to keep Leonor and Sofía away from the spotlight.
Perhaps it is strategy, perhaps it is protection. The truth is that, amid rumors and silence, the family achieves something very difficult: continuing to set the tone of the conversation without hardly showing themselves.
