Princess of Asturias Awards; 2020-2024


If you have answers, please help by responding to the unanswered posts.
I believe that many times actions are more important than words and at 17 years old, Princess Leonor has shown that she is perfectly aware of her responsibilities: she is carrying out her military training seriously and conscientiously prepares her events and speeches.

She knows how to behave and treat authorities, famous people and normal citizens with respect, she knows what it's like to attend events that are formal or relaxed, sad or happy, or what it's like to have to go to an event sick because people expect to see her.
What i think is missing a bit (not only for her but all the spanish royals) ist that we know almost nothing about her as person as they don't give Interviews, like the for example the scandinavian royals do.

I am sure this will come once she is 18, Felipe did give interviews where he discussed some private details.
 
It is tradition that after the Princess of Asturias Awards the royal family comes to greet the Spanish Radio Television team.

The king and queen have remembered a special greeting: the one from 20 years ago. It was then that the then Prince of Asturias greeted the then journalist Letizia Ortiz.

There is so much genuine, and deep, love within this family. They make a great team. The SRF under King Felipe VI are an absolute delight.
