Thanks Lula, for all those pictures of the Queen with Froylan and Victoria. Do you have any idea if the little Palmas will come to the island?

Already in the night, doña Sofía, occupied some of the theater boxes of the Auditòrium of Palm, again accompanied by two of her grandchildren, to enjoy and to applaud the representation of the classic Romeo and Julieta that interpreted the Ballet of Moscow under the choreographic direction of Timur Fayziev and Elena Lelenkov.

Once again, thanks Lula for the lovely photos. Victoria is getting to be a real beauty!
And it´s great to see the pleasure Queen Sophia has to be with her grandchildren.

Don't tell me it's Sofia's bra that can be seen in picture 3. She is way too old to wear see-through blouses.

Unfortunately the camera flash and a lens at 90 degree angle can reveal sights that the eye can not see unless one puts ones nose up to her belly.

She looks lovely and very sweet with her two grand children. No need to pour out all ones aggression toward royalties - if they are so (in ones opinion) unaware of how to dress properly perhaps another target for the illwill is recommended.

Yup it's her bra you see and it's not the first time she has done it. Two summers ago she also wore a see-through blue top showing her white bra in Mallorca at night, but of course no one criticized her in the press or even in forums like this. The Queen can get away with murder. Can you imagine if it was Letizia who wore something like that?

I remember these pictures and it was even more obvious. Showing the bra is unsuitable for any royal woman no matter what age or rank (of course it looks even more ridiculous on a 70+ year old).

I agree with Grevinnan. She looks lovely , kind, extremely caring with her grandchildren. For me, that´s the important matter.

I'm not convinced that she was wearing a see-through blouse. Both instances were at night with cameras flashing. I've seen plenty of pictures of family and friends where you can see their bra even though their blouses were not see-through. The camera flash reveals a lot more than you'd like it to sometimes; although being Queen, she should have known this and worn a different material.


Let it also be said that I think Queen Sofia is the best royal grandmother, and like Carminha Stalker and Grevinnan, I think that it's her loving interactions with her grandchildren that were most important.

I don't know if she's the best but judged from what we can see she's certainly a benchmark for others. Sofia does a lot with her grandchildren in the public eye - maybe others don't - but it's so natural and warm and a proof that "going public" doesn't mean "showing off". I believe that she gains a lot of - maybe even most - joy and strength from her relationship with her grandchildren - ok there is her sister but her own children have grown up and focus on their own lifes and JC ... well, it's first and foremost about keeping the spanish monarchy alive, I guess.

Ladejesus I also think that Queen Sofía is the best royal grandmother. Sofia has always been a great woman, loving and warm. I suppose that this is due to the Mediterranean character that is less cold than in other countries.
