I've never seen any photos of this event before, so I thought I would share them with you all.
It's from June 26th 2004, at the academy of Segovia, when the Princes attended the funeral of a military friend of Felipe, commandant Ramiro Minguela Alvarez, who died of cancer, at the age of 41.

I've noticed that there has been a discussion on the CP Mette-Marit thread where some say that she looks like Gwynet Paltrow. I just think that CP Letizia looks a lot like Katharine Hepburn, especially when they both have their hair down.

I saw some better photos, that shows the likeness better, in a magazine. But unfortunately, I don't have a scanner, but I found these photos, to illustrate.

The one of Katharine Hepburn I found at http://www.katharinehepburn.net/main.htm
The one of CP Letizia at http://pub.tv2.no/nettavisen/side2/k...icle475910.ece

I have never seen those last two photos -- I imagine they were special greetings since it was Letizia's first international royal event? Lovely.

Default How TALL?

Hi all,

Can someone tell me how tall Princess Letitzia is? She looks rather short in one of the photographs.

Hi SARA2312! Welcome on the forum!
Letizia is about 1.70m tall, or a little bit smaller.

Thank you Anna and Larzen for these new "old" photos.
She is so elegant. And that body language between the couple :).
