Princesses Victoria , Leonor , Elisabeth , Martha Louse, Amalia and Prince Christian have loving parents who are strong , doing their best to prepare them to their Role as future Monarch. They are well prepared .

Martha-Louise is not going to be Queen, but her niece Princess Ingrid Alexandra

We have very few photos of Princess Alexia's daughters, yesterday at Princess Leonor's birthday there were Anne-Marie and Amelia, the photo is not very good but Amelia is a very beautiful woman.

The press says that Carlos Morales junior was in party.
Other details of this event, the Princess Alexia always with her mother, Queen Anna Maria, on Cristian's birthday too.

I checked the royal house website and Leonor still has her child portrait in her profile. Quite weird there's no official picture.

Well I would imagine it may take some time to update although it may be the last thing on their mind given the festivities

A lot of family members invited , but I doubt a Group Picture ?

"Very good. Very emotional for the entire Crown and for all of Spain", said Infanta Margarita as she left her home on her way to the family dinner given by the King and Queen in El Pardo.

Casareal are not very creative or social media savvy so I'm not at all surprised.

I'm rewatching all the videos from tuesday and I finally realize that Leonor is left-handed and Sofía is right-handed. Cute! Now I'm curious to know if the other young heirs like Christian, Elisabeth, Amalia and Ingrid Alexandra are right-handed or left-handed.

Prince Wiliam is famously left-handed.

The German press has been speculating about Letizia's very tense appearance on the day of the oath.
Some claim that she was sick, others that she got nerves because of life that her daughter is scheduled to lead from now on.

They finally changed the profiles pictures at casareal website. They changed for both Leonor and Sofía (it's the pictures from Leonor's 18th celebrations).

 

[Duke of Marmalade]

Unfortunately only the profile pictures but not the official photographs. I hope this happens soon too.

Any other Royal House would have done this on the day ,but sadly the not very creative Zarzuela media team are as slow as snails.

 

[Duke of Marmalade]

There are still the children's pictures from 2020, showing 15 year old Leonor.

Another Roal House would also have taken the opportunity to make new official pics like they did in Denmark for example.

The stamp is nice, but did they reverse the image? How did her blonde streak get on the other side of her head?

The most important picture is the one showing the continuity of the monarchy = King & heiress, that is notably absent

But casareal has their own philosophy, I recall that the public offices had to beg for new pictures of Felipe when he became King, it took a long time until those were updated with Felipe wearing the respective uniforms.
