Doña Letizia’s pregnancy is already noticeable


TRH the Princes of Asturias visited yesterday Ciudad Real, which celebrates its 750th anniversary. During more than two hours, Don Felipe and Doña Letizia strolled by the streets, greeting the numerous people who were receiving them. The citizens of Ciudad Real were the first Spaniards who could observe the already visible pregnancy of the Princess of Asturias, who is turning the fifth month of gestation.

As gifts, Doña Letizia received a basket with sheets and other articles for the baby.

The visit made by Doña Letizia – who is the president of the Honour Committee in charge of the commemorations for the 750th anniversary of Ciudad Real - was the first official visit that the future Queen made to this capital and the second one of Don Felipe, since in 1998, the heir to the Throne had made an official trip through the five provinces of Castilla–La Mancha.

The mayor gave the Princes the Gold medal of the commemorative acts and a basket of baby clothes made in a kind of crafts that came from Flanders in the XVI century. According to Gil Ortega, "it is more a familiar gift, although I can well imagine that they will have many others, so they won’t need this one".

Can't wait for photos of Letizia receiving these baby-gifts.
Look, she was the president of the Honour Committee in Ciutad Real. Did she do some special things, for example speech or sth like that?

Doña Letizia also received a 1883 French edition of the book "The queens of Spain", portraying all the Spanish Queens,from Galia Placidia, wife of Ataulfo, until Maria Luisa de Parma, wife of Carlos IV. This book was published during the exile of queen Isabel II in France.

Besides, the Princess of Asturias and her child were presented with a basket with products made by the association "La Rosa del Azafrán". Among these products there were bed sheets, car sheets, an apron, baby booties, a bib and an embroidered handkerchief for the future mother.

At 7:30 p.m., while the Princes and the rest of the retinue went to the balcony of the City Hall, the carillon clock showing personages of the Quijote was installed at the old building of the City Hall.

Finally, the Princes of Asturias went to the Lopez Villa Señor Museum, where they inaugurated the exhibition "Ciudad Real 1255-2005", which makes a route by the history of the capital, since the battle of Alarcos that was in the origin of its foundation.

At the end of the visit, the councilman of Culture, Rafael Romero, in declarations to the media, stood out the way the Princes of Asturias were so pleasant during the visit and thanked for the answer of the citizens of Ciudad Real, who filled the streets with their presence.

As an anecdote, Romero said that, during the reception and the plenary sessions that took place in the City Hall, Doña Letizia dedicated a few minutes of affection towards a new-born, son of the PP counsellor, Carmen del Hoyo.

if I were a man I'd be jealous of Felipe.

 

[ap3]

Very pretty pink dress. I would have liked to have seen it without the jacket though.

Has she cut her hair? Or is she having the layers cut out? It looks straighter/flatter. I like it with a little bounce and body.

 

[princess gertrude]

I love the suit that she was wearing. Very professional. She looks great and definately starting to look very pregnant.

from colourpress today

Even if they put Felipe on the grouns he is still taller than everyone at the first step of the stairs

 

[Sancia]

Pregnancy does suit Letizia very well. She's only five months pregnant. I can understand why do some people think she's expecting twins. But her sister-in-law Cristina had too a big belly while expecting Irene.
