The Royal Household is aware of everything that happens in Spain, especially when it concerns members of the Royal Family. Therefore, there is no doubt that they must have been surprised to learn about the new rumor. It is the rumor that has started to circulate strongly in recent hours about Infanta Sofía.
There is speculation that the young woman could reappear publicly within days. All of this is due to a very specific event scheduled in Queen Letizia's official agenda. It is an event with which the young woman has a special connection, because of one of her best-known passions: soccer.
The rumor circulating about Infanta Sofía
Since she graduated from UWC Atlantic College in Wales, Infanta Sofía has not been seen at any public event. It is unknown whether she is still in Wales or if she has already quietly returned to Spain. Neither the media nor social media have managed to confirm her exact whereabouts.
However, media interest in her has not decreased. Now, everything suggests that she could make an imminent appearance. The reason? The official audience that her mother, Queen Letizia, will hold with the Women's National Soccer Team on June 25 at the Zarzuela Palace.
This meeting aims to encourage the national team ahead of their participation in the 2025 Women's Euro Cup, which will be held in Switzerland from July 2 to July 27. It is precisely in this context that the rumor makes sense: Infanta Sofía is truly passionate about soccer, and this event represents an ideal opportunity for her to be seen again.
It is true that the Royal Household has only confirmed the queen, but speculation has started to circulate both in the media and on social media. Many believe that her younger daughter could attend the event. Not just as a companion, but to show once again her support for the sport she is so enthusiastic about.
It should be remembered that Infanta Sofía has already shown her fondness for soccer on several occasions. For example, she accompanied her mother and her sister Leonor to the final of the 2023 Women's World Cup, in which Spain was crowned champion.
That gesture made it clear that soccer is not a passing interest for her. It is one of her greatest passions, and everything indicates that she keeps a special connection with the Spanish women's team. Therefore, her possible presence at the audience with them seems very plausible.
A key moment for Infanta Sofía's public image
Infanta Sofía's reappearance would come at a very opportune moment. After weeks of absence and in the midst of her transition to her new educational stage, this event would allow her to show closeness to the citizens.
In addition, it would help strengthen her public image as a young, active figure interested in social and sports issues. This is something the Royal Household especially values, considering that, although she will not be the heir, she is still a central part of the core that represents the institution.
In fact, King Felipe and Queen Letizia have been very careful when it comes to projecting a modern image of their daughters. Sofía has proved to be up to the task when needed. That's why this possible return would not be accidental, but perfectly consistent with her profile.
If her attendance at the June 25 audience is finally confirmed, it would be Infanta Sofía's first public appearance since her graduation. It would be a presence that would generate much discussion, especially at a time of year when the institutional agenda begins to relax for the summer.
