Yes, it is the same, a Mutsy, is the one that they used in Madrid.

The Loola of Bebe Comfort was the one that they had in Mallorca.

i agree, i'm surprised about the video. i'm quite sure they got inspiration for this from the other princely couples (haakon and mette-marit released videos of their children a couple of times, and so did willem and maxima). it seems that videos are becoming quite a normal thing. i loved this one as much as i did with the others. i think it's great that they open up.

Carlota,The Spanish royal family, made a video like this when the prince Felipe and the infantas Cristina and Elena were children, Felipe riding in bike(like little Leonor)and we could see images such as a family dinner daily.
So the prince, in his 40 birthday,also has wanted to repeat this type of video now that he has a nice family and I do not think they have been inspired by other royal couples because they have proven to be an independent couple that has their own customs.

I also have to say that the video is very very nice and this is a family that irradiate happiness and naturalness.

I don't think they got inspiration from other princely couples. Felipe is celebrating his 40th birthday, which is a milestone, so I think Casa Real just wanted to show both his professional and family life. Don't forget the video is not about the children ,eventhough Leonor seems to steal it from her father, but about Felipe the family man which is the point of the EFE special. I don't think we will be seeing more videos like this again till God knows when because it's just not their style.

Many thanks for the material. I guess we always have to keep in mind that it is about Felipe's 40th Bday. The girls are lovely although I find the atmosphere of the family pics strangely serious. I mean they usually laugh a lot and come across as warm but this time it's a bit like we don't really wanna do it but we have to. Letizia looks very unrelaxed and does not look into the camera once. All a bit staged. But maybe this is the purpose, to show that they are serious CPs and Felipe is a worthy successor of JC.

" Caracol" is a "snail", the Princess tries that Leonor sings an infantile Spanish about on a snail.

It is the first time that the Princes leave to record in the intimacy of their house and with their daughters, for them that are in the habit of being enough private rooms in everything what refers to their feelings, has had to of being difficult. They need a bit more of practice. ... Neither I believe that it turns out comfortable to have to part of the personnel of Zarzuela observing and to know that these images are going to be scrutinized to the minimum (the Spanish press does not conform that nice images, it is necessary to do the whole possible business with them).
