On the evening of May 17, local time, the Spanish royal family released a set of photos to celebrate the 20th wedding anniversary of King Felipe VI and Queen Letizia, although the "positive day" is on the 22nd of this month.
According to Spanish media reports, the royal family released 11 photos at once, which was "really surprising and delightful", because they had hardly celebrated their wedding anniversary with such fanfare before.
"These photographs express a lot of the basic messages that the royal family wants to convey in this new phase," explains the Spanish newspaper, "and although they are members of the royal family, they are also ordinary families, with the most simple and sincere feelings." ”
It is reported that the photo was taken in the Campo del Morro garden in front of the Royal Palace of Madrid, which symbolizes the Bourbon dynasty.
The garden, created by Felipe II, covers an area of about 20 hectares and is free for visitors when it opens. It is estimated that the number of people who want to sit on this bench and take pictures will increase in the future.
From the king to the queen to the two princesses, they dress up very daily, and they try to show the feeling of "little beauty".
Among the many photos, there is no one that has attracted the most attention.
The queen in her little white shoes sat on the back of her chair, and the king held his beloved wife's shoulders, and not far away the two princesses were approaching. Although it is not excluded as "posing", it also shows the best side of the family, the love of husband and wife, and the harmony of children.
According to reports, the photo was most likely taken last week, as Letizia appeared at the Royal Opera House wearing the exact same outfit. At that time, the outside world was quite surprised by the 51-year-old queen's style, because she actually wore small white shoes that looked looser.
Later, the royal family confirmed that Letizia had to undergo treatment for a "fracture of the proximal phalanx of the middle toe of her right foot", during which she had to take a break from high heels. As for the reason why Letizia injured her toe, it was also quite "daily", and her foot accidentally kicked the table leg.
The 18-year-old Princess Leonor, the future Queen of Spain, is currently studying and training at the Military Academy. And in the family photos, she doesn't have any "beautiful and sassy" feeling, she is completely relaxed, the good daughter of her parents, and Sophia's good sister.
In a photo of her being embraced by her mother, Leonore looks very ethereal, showing a fairy feeling, even in casual clothes, which is very much in line with people's imagination of "fairy tale princess".
Princess Sophia, who is very tall, is also cute, but compared to her sister, she has a little more down-to-earth beauty.
The 17-year-old is currently studying at UWC Atlantic College in Wales, England, and it is still unclear whether she will go to military school like her sister in the future. Maybe she can go straight to college after graduating from high school and study her favorite major.
Some German media have publicly criticized Felipe VI, believing that he is partial to his eldest daughter, and thus also neglects his younger daughter.
Perhaps because he didn't want the outside world to have such "prejudice", in the new family photos, the 56-year-old Felipe showed the same paternal love for his two daughters.
Some commentators pointed out that after some rumors about marital instability, Felipe and Letizia hit back with such a unique "wedding commemorative photo".
