I don't think so. The only thing we know is the fact that they met for the first time during birthday celebration of some noble journalist, Letizia's colleque. Felipe was invited there, but Letizia went there by chance, so we can say that it was FAITH!  We will probably never know how their relationship was developing, but they are said to start going out together after meeting in Galicia, where "Prestige" disaster happened.

I think she was confirmed shortly before her wedding. is that right?
is it often the case that people who have a first communion don't go on to be confirmed?
thanks so much to everyone who posted. looking at all these photos, I think Letizia's appearance has changed less since her engagement than any of the other crownprincesses.
|
Yes, it is extremely common. In Spain nearly everybody has a first communion but not everybody is confirmed afterwards.

That's not true. You need to be baptized but confirmation is optional. All my family and friends are married in the catholic church and some of them are confirmed and some are not.

Well, it is difficult to work as a journalist for a longtime and not to become a smoker

I have never seen this pic before (source: 20 minutos).
The photo was probably taken on May 1st, 1997 (almost 10 years ago!), when she worked for Bloomberg.

Very instructive because whate ever Letizia do/did she is absolutly beautiful. For a congres woman What a beauty; iI hope, but I'm sure not, that she received a good salary to do this student job. One thing is sure that the Princess of Asturias knows the cost of the studies...

Two photos of the Princess Letizia in Iraq. These photos were realized by Emilio Morenatti, the Spanish photographer who remained 17 hours kidnapped yesterday in Gaza.

oh there are many natural blondes in spain especially northern spain where people tend to be whiter and that is where she is from, but I have to say that Letizia has a natural beauty that is just breathtaking.

Oh I guess its because, I'm just used to seeing mainly mestizo mexicans. Who are mixed with Spaniard European and mostly indigenous mexican indians. Also used to seeing Puerto Ricans,Cubans,Dominans,who mixed with indigenous Taino indian,African,Spaniard and sometimes Asian
. Also Colombians,Venezuelans,Ecudorians exc. Who are also mixed wiht the native who have dark hair,eyes,brown skin. Anyway I also thought since Spanairds like Italians,Greeks,Turks,Portugese are mediteranean they have dark brown hair and eyes and olive skin. I didn't know that Spaniards could look like Scandinavians. But I also knew they didn't look anyhting like Mexicans. I'm of Cuban,Puerto Rican ancestry. My family traced our ancestry back far enough and we are 100% European, our fmaily come from Spain and Italy and we all have dark brown hair and eyes olive skin. So do most of Puerot Ricans,Cubans exc. I knew that Northern Italians can be blonde and be really light sometimes,I just didn't know about Spaniards.

That may be the case of Turks, but in Spain, Portugal and Italy there are many blond green/blue-eyed people... sure not as many as brown hair, but I would say at least 30% of the population has light hair
