The princess's new challenge that puts the queen consort on alert.
The relationship between Princess Leonor and Queen Letizia has reached a critical point in recent months, with an evident distance between mother and daughter. This conflict has been exacerbated by Jaime del Burgo's recent revelations, which have brought to light past family tensions.
Although Leonor was young during her parents' crisis in 2013, now, at 18 years old, she finds herself in the middle of a complicated situation. Meanwhile, Letizia, who had her first romantic relationship at a young age, did not anticipate that Leonor's destiny would follow a similar path.
It is rumored that the heir to the throne has started a new relationship with a young man in the United Kingdom, a country to which she frequently travels on weekends. Leonor prefers to spend little time in Zarzuela with her parents, opting for the freedom that she finds in Zaragoza with her friends.
Given the upcoming visit of Infanta SofĂa to the palace during Holy Week, the first-born of the kings has proposed to her parents to accompany her partner to the United Kingdom. Although King Felipe agrees with this idea, Queen Letizia is strongly opposed and denies her permission.
During Holy Week, it is likely that Leonor will have to fulfill her institutional commitments and appear with her parents at public events, following the established agenda. However, the royal family appears to be going their separate ways this time around, reflecting the division that currently reigns within the family. The tension between Leonor and Letizia seems to be far from resolved, and the royal family is in a moment of rupture.
