No Pilar? I think she was also absent at the recent ceremony for Leonor. I hope she’s well.

The funeral for Don Juan was IMO the most impressive of all the big events held during King Juan Carlos' reign. Undoubtely a funeral fit for the king he was not allowed to be when alive.

Thanks for posting the Video. Is there also a Video from the other part of the Funeral with foreign guests present? I believe that was some days later then this first Ceremonies.

Yes I was thinking the same ,her daughter and sons were there yesterday and thats also true about her absence from Leonor Golden Fleece ceremony.

It would not be like the Infanta Pilar to miss her fathers Anniversary Mass.

Nice to see Doña Irene Urdangarin with her cousins,grandmother and aunt in law in Madrid at a family outing.

The SRF need more of this family unity on show.

I agree An Ard Ri; we need to see more regular outings of the whole family, especially now after Easter cathedral-gate. It was really nice to see the SRF at the theatre yesterday and once again Leonor and Sofia are growing! Leonor looks more and more like Letizia each time I see a photo of her.

[An Ard Ri]

King Felipe's cousin Princess Cristina de Borbón Dos Sicilias (with her trademark headband) was also there and we normally only see her at family weddings/funerals or with the kings sisters.

Sure they do, after Palma-gate.


And of course Queen Sofia grabbing the hand of the heiress again in front of the cameras

The presence of Infanta Elena would have been the icing on the cake.

I thought the same thing, poor Leonor, Queen Sofia looks to be squeezing the heck out of her hand and she knows now there is no acceptable way to get away
