Vacation Decisions in Changing Times
Queen Letizia has chosen not to change her holiday schedule despite the recent loss of Juan Gómez-Acebo, whose funeral mass will be held on August 15 in Madrid. The monarch’s decision not to attend the ceremony has sparked criticism, especially given that her husband, Felipe VI, already had an official trip scheduled for that same date, forcing the family to postpone the event.
A Summer of Distancing
In a context where the relationship between Letizia and Felipe has been the subject of analysis, this summer has been characterized by the separation of the couple. The queen has decided to enjoy her free time away from her husband, which reinforces the rumors of a growing distance between them. According to experts, this situation has become evident after the recent statements of Jaime del Burgo.
A Solo Journey
Letizia embarked on one of the Royal Family’s opulent vessels in Palma de Mallorca, a yacht that represents unparalleled luxury, with a daily cost of over 6,000 euros. Equipped with amenities ranging from a gym to a cinema, this yacht has become her refuge, where she enjoys the tranquility of the sea.
Getaways to Greece with Friends
Recently, it has been reported that Letizia is in Greece, where she is said to be having fun in the company of friends. Although there is speculation about her being away from her daughters, Leonor and Sofia, it is suggested that Felipe VI may have travelled to the Dominican Republic on a separate trip.
A Refuge in the Sea
In Greek waters, the Queen and her group of friends are rumoured to be staying on board the yacht to avoid the attention of the paparazzi, enjoying the privacy afforded by the sea. This getaway is interpreted as indicative of the current state of her marriage, as it is the first time Letizia has spent a holiday without her husband.
Looking to the Future
While Letizia is enjoying her time abroad, she is expected to return to Spain to accompany her daughter Leonor on her return to military training in Pontevedra. With the official agenda of institutional commitments resuming in September, it remains to be seen how this distancing will be reflected in her public life.
