You have to vary your search, because they have two spellings for the Queen's name "SoPHia" and "SoFia"

Search for Spanish Royal Family or Spanish Royals, that's how I get most of my pictures.

You also can try "Juan Carlos of Spain" instead of "King Juan Carlos"

I hope this time you have better luck!

Terrific pictures Anna_R and Mascha!

What a treat to see all these older pictures of Juan Carlos and Sofia in their earlier years together. Sofia was incredibly poised and elegant even in her youth.
