Thanks to the transparency of the Spanish monarchy, it has just been confirmed what exists between Queen Letizia and Máxima of the Netherlands. As every year, the Crown has released the list of gifts that the Royal Family usually receives from certain personalities. In it, it is clear how Máxima gave Letizia a ceramic plate with great significance for the queen.
This confirms the bond between both sovereigns and the intimate and close relationship they have. This close connection goes beyond formality, radiating warmth and mutual trust with genuine closeness.

The great news about Queen Letizia and Máxima of the Netherlands is confirmed
Since their first diplomatic meeting, Queen Letizia and Máxima of the Netherlands have established a fraternal bond that has grown stronger over the years. Their complicity is visible in every gesture during official visits and family stays, showing spontaneity and empathy beyond the solemnity of royalty.
The proof of this is found in the latest gesture that Máxima of the Netherlands has had with Queen Letizia. The institution has released the list of gifts that members of the Royal Family have received from some leaders and well-known figures. Among all of them, the personal gift that the Dutch queen has sent to Letizia stands out as a sign of that sincere friendship.
It is a ceramic plate with great significance that Máxima of the Netherlands personally gave to Queen Letizia. She did so after the kings' visit to the Netherlands, and it was the most emotional moment of the trip. This gesture symbolizes the closeness of both queens and the deep affection they have for their traditions and paths.

However, if there is one detail that shows how much Máxima trusts Letizia, it is what happened with Amalia. When the heiress received threats from the mafia during a difficult period, Máxima showed complete confidence by trusting Letizia without reservations or doubts.
Letizia offered Amalia temporary refuge, showing herself alert and welcoming in a private setting in Spain, acting with philanthropic generosity without any public display. Máxima's daughter was in Madrid for a year studying remotely until she could return to the Netherlands.
Máxima of the Netherlands entrusted Queen Letizia with what she valued most
By moving Amalia to Spanish soil, Máxima trusted Letizia's absolute discretion, protecting her daughter's privacy with complete security. During that period, the queen provided the heiress with everything necessary so she could continue her studies and daily routine.
Queen Máxima, grateful and relieved for that protection, further strengthened the emotional ties with Queen Letizia, generating an even greater exchange of trust. Not for nothing, the Dutch Royal Family entrusted the future of their institution to the Spanish queen.

Máxima felt free to trust her not only because of her position, but also because of her empathetic capacity and her commitment to family well-being. Letizia, meanwhile, showed that the modern woman can be both queen and loyal friend, acting with generosity without appearances or artificial complications.
From that moment, their friendship was consolidated and strengthened. Queen Letizia and Máxima also share values that go beyond their monarchical roles. Among them are the defense of human rights, inclusive education, and mental health.
Thanks to their friendship, both have strengthened the joint recognition of the role of queens who are committed and close to their families and societies. Máxima considers Letizia not only a diplomatic ally, but someone who responds with generosity in critical and delicate situations.
