There are only 24 hours left before Casa Real experiences one of the most emotional moments of this summer. Princess Leonor will undoubtedly be the main protagonist of a day filled with emotion and great solemnity. Elcano docked for the last time in Marín, where the town dressed up to welcome the heiress.
Several events will be held to recognize Leonor's effort and dedication in the Navy. As expected, her sister, Infanta Sofía, will also closely experience this great day.

Casa Real confirms the most desired news about Princess Leonor
Next Wednesday, July 16, Casa Real will witness an emotional moment starring Princess Leonor. The heiress will finally complete her training in the Navy, with various commemorative events held in her honor. Marín will be the chosen setting for the official event that will mark the lives of the entire royal family.
In this context of celebrations, Casa Real has announced the latest about Princess Leonor and her sister, Infanta Sofía: they will reunite in Marín. There are only 24 hours left before the daughters of the kings see each other again after more than six months apart.

Since her admission to the General Military Academy, Leonor has undergone a personal and professional transformation that is already visible in her public appearances. This process has been shared, from a distance, by Infanta Sofía, who hasn't hidden her pride in her older sister's achievements. Although their educational paths have been different, the bond that unites them has grown stronger with every step they take toward their respective destinies.
The event in Marín will be a moment of high emotional intensity, especially due to the presence of the entire family in such a symbolic setting. Don Felipe, as supreme commander of the Armed Forces, will proudly accompany his daughter during this end of a cycle. Queen Letizia, meanwhile, has closely followed every phase of Leonor's training, showing a discreet but constant involvement.
Nevertheless, the desired reunion with Infanta Sofía will undoubtedly be one of the most talked-about gestures of the day. After her first year of studies in Wales, Sofía has kept a low media profile, without losing her role within the family core. Her reunion with Leonor is not only emotionally significant, but also represents the support of a sister who shares the burden of public visibility.
The inner circle of Casa Real yields to Princess Leonor
After months of intense training, maneuvers, and life aboard the Elcano ship, Leonor is saying goodbye to this essential stage in her military preparation. Casa Real has closely followed each of her stops and now celebrates the one that finally brings her back home.
Over the past few months, she has been valued for her attitude, effort, and adaptability. These characteristics will now be reflected in her performance as a frigate ensign. The end of this stage in Marín brings her even closer to her new responsibilities, and the inner circle of Casa Real will be accompanying her.

The ceremony will also be an opportunity for citizens to see the royal family united in a traditionally military environment. The Spanish Navy has carefully prepared the event, aware of its significance for both the institution and the monarchy.
While Leonor takes this new step, the presence of Infanta Sofía adds a touch of closeness to the protocol. Her knowing smile, the spontaneous gestures between sisters, all will help humanize a day marked by military rigor. This increasingly solid fraternal relationship is also an asset for Casa Real in times of institutional transformation.
In 24 hours, Marín will become the setting for a silent embrace shared between sisters that, without words, will say much more than any speech.
