Emotion is running high at Zarzuela Palace. After all, the exact date when Princess Leonor will see her parents again has finally been revealed. Moreover, this is also the date when she will appear in public again with her entire family.
It has been almost ten months since the last public appearance of King Felipe and Queen Letizia with their daughters. In fact, the last family photo took place in September 2024, during the Princess of Asturias Awards held in Oviedo.
This was an event where Princess Leonor was once again the center of attention. At that time, as usual, the royal family gathered to attend the various ceremonies that were held. However, beyond this event, it has not been possible to see them together again.
During all this time, the military training of the future queen of Spain has kept her completely away from public life. She has had to complete a five-month voyage aboard the training ship Juan Sebastián Elcano.
Meanwhile, Infanta Sofía has been focused on her international baccalaureate in Wales. This situation has prevented both sisters from attending any official event together during this long period. However, this is about to change.
Zarzuela team reveals the exact date when Princess Leonor will reunite with her family
In the schedule for July published by the communications team at Zarzuela Palace, the desired public reunion of the royal family is announced.
According to the agenda, King Felipe and Queen Letizia will appear in public again with their daughters, Princess Leonor and Infanta Sofía, thus restoring their family image. This return will take place during several official events scheduled for the coming days in different locations.
As confirmed, on July 16, Princess Leonor will receive her commission as a midshipman at the Naval School of Marín, Pontevedra. The ceremony will be presided over by King Felipe and will be attended by Queen Letizia and, presumably, Infanta Sofía.
Before this moment, on July 13, the Elcano ship will arrive in Marín with Princess Leonor on board. On the 14th, the princess will receive the Medal of Galicia in Santiago and another recognition in Marín, although she is expected to attend these events alone.
Everything suggests that July 16 will be when the first family photo takes place. If not, the desired family reunion will happen on July 23 at the Liceu Theater in Barcelona. This is where the Princess of Girona Awards ceremony will be held.
According to the official website of the foundation, the king, queen, and their two daughters, Princess Leonor and Infanta Sofía, will be present at this event. Without a doubt, this will be one of the most significant events of the summer for the royal family.
Afterwards, the royal family will travel to Mallorca, their traditional summer destination. Starting August 3, images of the king and queen walking with their two daughters around the island may be seen, probably accompanied by Queen Emerita Sofía.
Finally, after enjoying their vacation, Princess Leonor is scheduled to enter the Air Academy of San Javier at the end of August, where she will complete her military training.
