I don't think we will see too many foreign Royals at the Memorial Mass at El Escorial except for perhaps Princess Irene of Greece,members of the Bulgarian and Bourbon-Dos Sicilias families.

 I agree; I expect Pilar's funeral will be more of a private affair, with mostly family and close friends attending.

We'll see the Spanish Royal and extended Royal Family ,the Bourbon-Dos Sicilias cousins and I'd expect to see the Spanish nobility out in force too.

I was wondering the same. An article I read stated she and her husband were there, but then shouldn’t she have been next to Cristina, almost directly behind Juan Carlos?

Princess Beatrix was accompanied by Ottoline Antoinette Gaarlandt - van Voorst van Beesd, one of the Hofdames. It is the white-haired lady on this photo (the other is the Grand-Mastress, the most senior female functionary at the Dutch Court) : https://www.ppe-agency.com/500px/Apr...E180424117.jpg

I also spotted Princess Kalina of Bulgaria and am very glad Princess Beatrix got seated with the Kings sisters near King Juan Carlos and Queen Sofia.
HE Doña Simoneta Gomez Acebo looks utterly bereft.

The Infanta Doña Pilar de Borbón was at the wedding of Princess Beatrix in 1966. The Infanta was also at her Investiture in 1980. The Infanta was also President of the Fédération Équestre Internationale. As keen lover of equestrian events Princess (Queen) Beatrix has often met the Infanta, President of the FEI, in this framework.
