I think the major difference is the weight. There are many royals out there working hard to keep their weight in check including her own husband, why couldn't Letizia put some effort to gain a few pounds ? If she needs to see multiple meals each day, then be it. With her small frame, all her need is a few pounds, that would make a big difference.

It is not a question of wanting but of being able, that they are two very different things, gain weight for a person how Letizia is very difficult. She can do some things, but she cannot give a change to her form of life, because it is the one that is, and the stress of her life is what makes it be thinner.
These two photos only are the example of a woman who has just passed for a pregnancy, in which how it is normal she has gained a few kilos. And of a woman who in 3 months only has devoted herself to her daughter. Not can to look for a similarity, because all her life pregnant is not going to be.
Since Alexandria has said other princesses have lost weight. The difference is that them these kilos they might exceed and Letizia not. It is a simple question of activity and of stress.
How I have said before the Prince also has lost weight, and there have been commentaries on the bad face of the King. The Princes have passed in the last months for a very intense activity, which it was needing of enough physical effort, acts that lasted an entire day with stifling temperatures, or acts every day in a different place of Spain. Besides they were doing always the effort extra to come to house and to be with the girl.
And this one would be the most normal part of the history, but it is that there have been many things more, many extras that they would exhaust anyone. The acts and the girl would be the normal things. But there are many other things of which it is not necessary to forget, and that are the really difficult ones.
On the one hand the habitual rumors, that if they are habitual, but when they affect also your baby newborn child they are not easy.
The birth of a girl is for them a problem, which makes have to appear many things, political and familiar; they want to have more children, but today in day it is a problem ... for them it is not anything easy. Last months in the Spanish politics there have been many problems, many clashes and many tensions, and it reverberates directly in the activity of the Royal Family, and in their life ... because with the level of clash that exists difficultly the successor problem will be solved.
Neither it is necessary to forget that the sister of the princess has separated and that she has a small girl. And what in a normal family can be a difficult situation, in a person who is harassed and chased by the press, turns into a very difficult situation.
The problem is not the work or the daily life, the problem they are the extras .... how it happens to any person.
