I love that she spoke English!!! Despite the Spanish accent sounding through, she did quite well IMO

The way she sounds isn't bad at all. I don't mind the accent. I wish she could have spoken in English longer and hope we could hear that.

You know, it is great to hear Letizia speak in English - I haven't heard Mathilde or Mette Marit speak it, but am slowly crossing the CP's off the list... lol

MM often holds speeches in English when she goes on official Visits.

Letizia's English sounded very nice and I enjoyed her accent -- just enough to give a calming effect. I was surprised by her sexy low tone. I guess her prior TV job helped in that direction. The males in my family always love that deep sensuous level in female speech. I let my grandson listen and he agreed that between her sophisticated looks, subtle dressing, lovely face and now hearing that soothing tone to her voice -- small wonder that Felipe looks at her the way he does! That is a 28 year old male opinion. Anyway, thank you for sharing the sound with us.

Letizia's accent is very graceful IMO. It didn't sound tacky but charming. Her voice is my favorite Royal Voice.

News media and humanitarian aid is the theme of the 23rd ALNAP Biannual Meeting to be held in Madrid on the 4th and 5th of June 2008. The meeting brings together a diverse group of stakeholders to discuss the evolving relationship between media and humanitarian agencies. Collective reflection on longstanding issues and new challenges has the potential to shed light on the dependencies, conflicts and nuances that make up this relationship, and point towards a future agenda

Letizia seemed to have a good time yesterday. Here she laughs with State Secretary for Cooperation Leire Pajin.

Looks like she received a doll for Leonor and Sofia, how sweet!
Letizia and Felipe sure have had a busy schedule lately! No wonder Letizia looks a bit tired!
