Princess Letizia's Current Events: Part 5

[lula]

¡¡¡¡ HAPPY BIRTHDAY¡¡¡¡

Elsa, I am sure that the Princess would be charmed with this tart of chocolate, not if her sisters will continue doing her.
It does not hope that they do any special celebration, but this evening if we will be able to see them in an act, a sorrow is that it is a serious enough act. I remember the year that the Prince went to the delivery of the Prizes Goya of cinema, and how the 12 had passed and it was his birthday the director of cinema Pedro Almodovar him congratulated and achieved that the whole theatre was singing happy birthday to him ... the poor Prince was dying of shame ¡¡¡¡:p

It tries to be funny but at the end it turns to be without taste. What do you think?

I think exactly the same thing that your, but good it is that to take it to laugh, which is going to do him. They will want to call the attention. It seems that in general this year the press has decided to make her a bit calm, how last year was something familiar the press knows that they do not have much that to extract, only the act of this evening.

Mrs Letizia will deposit some of the royal jewels "to pass"

Julia Sáez-Angulo The diadema Hellenic that Letizia Ortiz lit up in its wedding with the Prince of Asturias, property and the queen Sofía, has passed to use and enjoyment of the today Princess of Asturias.
18 of September of 2005. As opposed to England, Spain does not have jewels of the Crown in strict sense. Only a simple crown is kept and a silver scepter sobredorada in royal palace, that symbolize the Kingdom, and that they preside on a cushion some solemn acts of the Monarchy. Perhaps by this, an English, the queen Victory Eugenia, created the calls "jewels to pass", so that the queens of Spain use them and they enjoy, but itself they be not scattered among the heirs, as has come occurring. They are few jewels in number, but important and significant as the crown of the fleur-de-lis, that lights up the queen in official receptions, the necklaces of chatones; the necklace of pearls of the queen Mercy and other.
The Queen Sofía, attentive to this new spirit, has yielded the diadema Hellenic to the Princess of Asturias the one that of institutional way goes lighting up progressively some family jewels as a necklace of pearls the one that likewise Mrs gave him Sofía, the day of the engagement, or the clasps twins decó in the neckline of the red dress of Caprile the one that lit up in the wedding of the Danish heir, clasps that Countess of Barcelona, and that lit up in days of gala.
Significant jewel The diadema Hellenic is a very significant jewel, because was the one that gave the kaiser Guillermo II to its only daughter María Luisa of Prussia for its wedding with the prince of Hannover in the 19th century, who at the same time its daughter passed it Federica when married Pablo of Greece and this at the same time to its daughter Mrs Sofía when married Gift Juan Carlos, Prince of Asturias in dynastic sense. The observers think that the Queen has determined "to pass" her diadema of Princess of Asturias to Princess of Asturias, to increase this personal but historic type of jewels of the monarchy.
Since they married the Princes of Asturias, the queen does not light up again the tiara Hellenic and, according to trustworthy sources, today herself custody in the Building of the Princes, at the disposal of Mrs Letizia.
The Princess of Asturias lights up habitually simple jewels, while he reserves the jewels "to pass" for the institutional days of gala. He was the Countess from Barcelona the one that minted the expression jewels "to pass", when the queen Victory Eugenia delivered him the historic jewels al to die Alfonso XIII. Mrs María of Bourbon did not want to accept them while her mother-in-law to live, and the only time that lit up them all was, at the request of the own Victory Eugenia, in the coronation of Isabel II, "because I here am as English princess and queen mother, while you are like the queen of Spain", told her Mrs María.

It seems to me to be very disagreeable. But the designer only seeks for the polemic and publicize.
It seems that last year designed a vest asking for the freedom for Farruquito, a famous dancer who knocked down a man and it was made dead in the highway, and that allowed that his small brother should accuse because for to the minor being of age is fewer years of penalty.
So I believe that we us can was waiting for any thing of this designer.

Sondage: Letizia Ortiz

INSUFFLERA-T-ELLE DE LA MODERNITÉ AU ROYAUME D'ESPAGNE ?

Le 22 mai, cette ancienne présentatrice de télévision réalisera le rêve de princesse de nombreuses petites filles espagnoles : elle épousera le futur roi.

Loin d'avoir le sang bleu, cette fille d'une infirmière syndicaliste a dû servir des pizzas pour se payer un voyage en Colombie. Divorcée, féministe, agnostique, elle ne colle pas exactement à l'image d'une famille royale traditionaliste.

Sondage: la princesse Letizia

SERA-T-ELLE UNE BONNE REINE D’ESPAGNE ?

"Propulsée sur le devant de la scène royale espagnole et internationale, après son mariage avec le prince héritier Felipe, Letizia Ortiz ne peut faillir à son rôle de princesse et de future reine d’Espagne. Après huit mois de mariage, l’ancienne journaliste travaille dur pour être prise au sérieux et seconder au mieux son époux.

L’enjeu est de taille et le chemin semé d’embûches. Ex-roturière, divorcée, Letizia doit mériter ses multiples titres, en particulier celui de future Altesse royale. Ayant d’ores et déjà le soutien de sa belle-mère, la reine Sophie, la jeune femme saura certainement, en pro des médias, conquérir le cœur de ses sujets. Mais son plus grand challenge sera sans nul doute de donner un héritier au trône d’Espagne… "

[Elsa M.]

These are very old articles, Anna. I don't think they have much interest... The first one is full of imprecise statements, but here it is, anyway:


Will she bring modernity to the kingdom of Spain?

May 22 - this former T.V. presenter will carry out the princess dream of many young Spanish girls: she will marry the future king. Far from having blue blood, this daughter of a nurse trade unionist had to serve pizzas to save money for her trip to Colombia. Divorced, feminist, agnostic, she doesn’t exactly represent the traditional image of a member of a royal family.



Will she be a good queen of Spain?

"Propelled in the very middle of the Spanish and International royal scene, after marrying prince Felipe, Letizia Ortiz cannot fail in her role of princess and future queen of Spain. After eight months of marriage, the former journalist works hard to be taken seriously and to assist her husband as well as possible. The task is serious and the way is full of difficulties. Ex-commoner, divorced, Letizia must deserve her multiple titles, in particular that of future Majesty. Having now the chance of supporting her mother-in-law, Queen Sofia, this young lady will certainly know to conquer the heart of her fellow subjects. But her greatest challenge will be, without any doubt, producing an heir to the Spanish throne... "
