Names and godparents for Félix and Claire's third child

Apologies in advance to the mods as this will be out of topic. Just wanted to ask how Leonor and Sofia had their father as sponsor for their respective confirmations or am i missing something?

I suspect being a Catholic monarch helps getting a special dispensation

I hope GHD Stephanie is asked to be godmother

Balthasar Charles (Balthazar Carlos), Prince of Asturias was the son of King Philip IV of Spain.
He did not become the next sovereign because he predeceased his father.

No, grandparents and parents cannot be confirmation sponsors. I wanted my father to be my eldest son's sponsor, and I was told no. I checked with my diocese and archbishop and was told the same thing. My mother had warned me, but I didn't believe her. The church encourages godparents to be sponsors, with the obvious exception of grandparents and parents.

Canon law says otherwise and I know people who had grandparents as their sponsors. Also, the decision of a sponsor should be made by the confirmand, not their parents.
