The existence of Queen Aisha is the apple of the whole Spanish royal family-the future queen, Princess Royal of leonor, is now 15 years old.
For the people, the word royal family has always meant honor and nobility, supreme power and a life of giving orders. In fact, for people in the royal family, no matter the title before the name or the blood flowing on them, it means chains, which have bound them firmly since they were born, and Princess leonor is no exception.
In August 2020, when the Spanish royal family visited the Naum Social Education Center, an episode occurred: a young girl naively asked Princess leonor, "What do you want to be when you grow up?"
The queen who heard this question quietly answered for leonor without waiting for her to speak: "Do what she should do, not what she wants to do."
Look, this is the royal answer. Life is a long road, and there are so many forks in the road, but leonor was born in the royal family. This one alone blocked most of her choices. She can only live as Princess of Spain and Queen of Spain in this life, even though she just turned 2020 15.
"If you want to wear a crown, put up with it first"-Excellence is leonor's only choice in life.
1, from princess royal to the future queen.
The royal princess of Spain was born to be extraordinary.
365438+2005 10 One morning, a baby girl was born in the Spanish royal family with loud cries. Crown Prince Felipe Juan and Crown Princess letizia welcomed their eldest daughter. It is reported that the due date of the Crown Princess was originally165438+1mid-October, so the little guy was probably too impatient. She was born two weeks ahead of schedule.
Subsequently, the Spanish royal family announced that the princess who died in a hurry was named leonor, and her full name was leonor de Bourbon-Ortiz.
Leonor didn't know at that time that her birth brought a shock to the Spanish royal family.
According to the Spanish Constitution, royal women have the same right to inherit the throne as men, and royal women can inherit the throne only if they have no brothers. In other words, if Crown Prince Felipe and Princess Felipe give birth to a baby boy in the future, then leonor will lose the right to inherit the throne.
Socialists who had been in power for 18 months at that time, because of leonor's birth, once again introduced the issue of succession to the throne into public discussion, demanding that the above-mentioned constitution be amended, and the male priority heir system be changed to the eldest son inheritance system, so as to completely realize the equality between men and women in inheritance.
In 20 14, leonor's grandfather Juan Carlos I abdicated, and leonor followed his father to attend his grandfather's abdication ceremony. On that day, her father, Crown Prince Felipe, officially succeeded to the Spanish throne and became king of felipe vi.
Subsequently, leonor was named "Prince asturias".
The origin of this title can be traced back to14th century Spanish King Afonso Vi. Because the process is too complicated, I won't go into details. As long as we know, in Spain, "Prince asturias" is equivalent to the succession to the throne, and the Spanish Constitution recognizes that the heir to the throne uses this title. Therefore, obtaining this title means that leonor has become the first heir to the Spanish throne.
65438+1October 30th is a significant day for leonor's father and leonor.
65438+ 19861October 30th, felipe vi, then prince of Spain, was awarded the Victory Cross by his father, and was sworn in at the palace, becoming the legal heir of the royal family.
At that time, the old king said to the Crown Prince, "This cross is not only for you now, but also for you as a future king. According to the requirements of the crown, you must wear it with pride and dignity. You must be diligent, brave, knowledgeable and responsible. This cross requires you and all Spaniards, especially the younger generation, to always do what Spain asks and expects you to do. "
20 1810.30, 32 years later, the princess of the Spanish royal family also ushered in the highlight of her life. Felipe vi awarded him the Royal Princess golden fleece Medal on his 50th birthday.
This medal is engraved with Philippe III le Bon's motto "Don't follow others", which has become a household name as early as the era of great navigation. This is the most outstanding knight medal among many. Winning this medal means that leonor will be the sole heir to the Spanish royal family in the future.
At this point, Princess leonor officially became the "Queen's Store" in the eyes of the world.
2. Every step towards the throne
Leonor has never been exposed to "ordinary" since he was born. On the seventh day of her life, she was still in her infancy and was held by her parents to attend various occasions.
At that time, felipe vi, who was promoted to father, hugged his daughter and thanked him: "Nothing is more exciting than now."
Felipe vi loves his daughter. As leonor had announced in unofficial occasions when he was very young, leonor was the only heir, regardless of whether the royal family gave birth to a baby boy in the future. But also because of this high expectation, leonor's growth path is different.
There are so many princesses in the world that there are never a few orthodox royal daughters. When the whole world is talking about the princess, what are they talking about? Face value, clothing, wealth, talent ...
Few people treat a princess with strict requirements and political vision unless she will become a queen.
How many reigning queens are there in the world? The answers are two: Queen Elizabeth II of England and Queen Margrethe II of Denmark.
If Leonore wants to be a queen, she must pay more than becoming a princess.
At an age when children all over the world are playing, leonor has attended all the heavyweight political conferences in the world. Her small pink figure is not suitable for serious occasions. But her dignified manners and self-control beyond her age are amazing.
This over-age restraint is one of the prices that leonor has to pay: the Crown Prince has no childhood.
In fact, if you look at the younger leonor, there are naive times when he poses for the camera and laughs without scruple. When leonor grew up, every time he appeared in the camera, he was more decent and dignified than the last time. The more she looks like the Crown Prince, the farther away she is from her childhood.
Leonor has never enjoyed snacks and TV that ordinary children can enjoy. According to legend, every morning, leonor was asked by the king about all kinds of government affairs, and was taken to learn all kinds of knowledge related to politics.
At this time, no one cares how old the Crown Prince is, whether she is 8 or 15 years old. As the crown prince, she should bear everything at present.
This contrast became more obvious when she was framed with her sister Princess Sophia.
Yes, felipe vi and the Queen have more than one daughter. In 2007, their second daughter Princess Sophia was born. She is a truly carefree little princess of the royal family. Although she and her sister have similar courses, she lacks the restriction of being an heir. Compared with leonor, Sophia's world is much easier.
Every time she appears in front of the camera, leonor always looks self-serious, decent and elegant, much like the restrained and noble Aisha in Frozen. Her sister Sophia is smiling and lively most of the time, and looks a little more childish from her standing posture.
There is a widely circulated picture of King felipe vi holding Princess Sophia and kissing her forehead. Sophia was playing around in her father's arms, while leonor stood upright and watched the interaction between her sister and her father with envy.
At this time, people are a little distressed by this young and mature girl. She also wants to have a bright and beautiful youth, and she also wants to throw herself into her parents' arms unscrupulously. But reason tells people that King Felipe's demand for leonor is not wrong.
"According to the requirements of the crown, you must wear it with pride and dignity. You must be diligent, brave and knowledgeable. "
This is what the old king told felipe vi. Now, this sentence also applies to leonor. She is the future queen, and she must learn how to be a queen.
One minute on stage is ten years off stage. Appearing in front of the camera and performing perfectly every second is leonor's countless blood and tears in private.
On June 20 19 10 6 18, the "Princess asturias Award" ceremony was held, and Princess leonor made her official speech for the first time.
In her speech, her elegant speech and decent manners, which belong to the good looks of the youth season, have deeply touched the world.
When she said, "asturias is also the hometown of my mother, the queen, so asturias's blood flows all over my body", the audience applauded for nearly half a minute.
In her speech, the king's father and the queen's mother always look at her with smiles, and her dear sister sits under the stage. When people saw the eye contact between the king and the queen, they began to realize how much felipe vi cherished this daughter.
At the same time, I also realized that Princess leonor of the Spanish royal family is growing into a qualified heir to the royal family, and her elegant demeanour is gradually revealed to the world. This is not a royal flower, but a young eagle spreading its wings.
People have reason to believe that this girl will "serve Spain and all the Spanish people wholeheartedly" as she said. In fact, as soon as her voice fell, her words were interrupted by thunderous applause for nearly half a minute.
In the latest official speech, leonor switched between Spanish, French, English and Arabic, and finished the speech fluently, winning the admiration of the audience.
The young girl is conquering the world with her charm.
Conclusion A domestic forum sent a very interesting question, saying, "How can I marry Princess Leonore?"
The following answer is very interesting.
You need to have assets of $30 million to $50 million and be proficient in English, Spanish or French. And proficient in all kinds of sports, preferably equestrian, racing and sailing. Believing in Catholicism, familiar with English Catholic nobles, familiar with Spanish or Latin American Catholic churches and prelates, and serving as a senior diplomat or holding an important position in the Spanish royal family at a young age.
As the saying goes, "Fish is a fish, shrimp is a shrimp, dragon is a dancing phoenix, and toad is a frog", and such conditions can be listed, firstly because of Leona's distinguished status, and secondly because of her Excellence.
Given that the little princess is only 15 years old now, of course, the above questions have no reference significance for her, just a folk joke.
In any case, leonor at the age of 15 has made achievements different from most children of this age in the world, and her dazzling is clearly visible.
