Leticia’s loneliness in Zarzuela
There are times of the year when Letícia feels more alone than ever at the palace. Although Zarzuela is always full of royal workers, the queen feels very lonely at the moment. These are the times when her husband Felipe is away on official institutional trips, such as his recent trip to the Baltic republics. In addition, her eldest daughter Eleonor is with her cadet friends at the military academy, while her youngest daughter Sofia is at boarding school in Wales doing her high school diploma. All this means that Letícia finds herself without her main supporters near her.
Leticia’s life before she was queen
Letícia became part of the lives of the Bourbons many years ago, when she joined Prince Felipe. Since then, she has dreamed of being Queen of Spain. However, her life has not always been as she had dreamed. Before moving to Zarzuela, Letícia lived in an 85 square meter single flat in Valdebernardo, east of Madrid. This flat, located on the seventh floor of a building, had a tennis court, swimming pool and other communal areas. It was a special place for her, as it was near Torrespaña, where Letícia worked as a journalist before marrying Felipe.
The change to a new life
Although Letícia left her flat before marrying Felipe, she will always remember that place fondly. After divorcing her first husband, Letícia bought this flat and began a new phase of her life. It was a time of change as she prepared to face her new life as a princess and, later, as Queen of Spain. Since then, his life has completely changed and he has had to face new challenges and responsibilities (https://correccioencatala.cat/com-estructura-text-catala/).
