Felipe VI celebrates his 56th birthday this Tuesday, January 30, 2024. An event that he should celebrate with his family, in particular alongside his lovely Letizia and their daughters Leonor and Sofia. It could also be that the festivities will take place in their Zarzuela Palace, located in Madrid. It is a recently built residence with an area of 3,150m2, located approximately 300 meters east of that of Queen Sophie. The construction of this part of the palace was completed in 2002, when Felipe was still Prince of Asturias.
A huge place, where Leonor – who was baptized there – and Sofia have their own space. In fact, they have a house, called the Pavilion of the Princes, which is located within the grounds of the Zarzuela Palace, about 300 meters from the palace. It is 30 meters wide and has a garden with swimming pool and swing.
But this residence with an area of 1,800 square meters is now quite empty, from its black and white tiled entrance hall to the living rooms and offices, including the five bedrooms located upstairs. Because as a reminder, the two young women have taken their independence. Léonor (who is the crown princess) left on August 17 to begin her training in the army at the General Military Academy of Zaragoza, for a period of 3 years. But she had already left Spain to study at UWC Atlantic College in Wales. It is also there that his younger daughter has been studying since August 29.
Felipe and Letizia, a new life together
For Felipe VI and Letizia, a couple recently marked, let’s remember, by rumors of infidelity, seeing their children take flight must give them a strange feeling. And this despite the fact that they are prepared for this, in particular thanks to the first departure of their eldest. “I think after Leonor’s two years in Wales, the Queen has gotten used to it. But oWe know that she had difficulties at the beginning and it is possible that the same thing will happen again today with Sofia, the youngest in the family“, explained Núria Tiburcio, royalty expert for the magazine Vanitatis.
Finally, let us point out that Leonor has weekend leave, which allows her to return regularly to her parents.
