Half of Spain is shocked as the news about Queen Sofía and Infanta Cristina is confirmed

The Royal Family is constantly in the media spotlight, sometimes because of their scandals and other times because of their public appearances. Now they're in the news for another reason. Specifically, because our country has been surprised to learn that Queen Sofía and Infanta Cristina have more in common than just blood and being mother and daughter.

Apparently, the two share a hobby that was previously unknown. It's photography.

The Unknown Passion That Brings Queen Sofía And Infanta Cristina Even Closer Together

Everyone knew that Queen Sofía, among other hobbies, had photography as one of her interests. In fact, on many occasions, especially years ago, she was seen with a camera in hand. What's more, she even became the subject of some controversy for being responsible for the photo montage of the family's Christmas greeting.

However, it has now been surprisingly confirmed that something half of Spain or perhaps the entire country didn't know. None other than her daughter, Infanta Cristina, also shares this passion for the art. Vanitatis is the outlet that has revealed this passion of the two.

What's more, it has been revealed that Felipe VI's sister even has her own professional camera. And that the emerita, whenever she can, still develops her photos in the traditional way.

This discovery has caused astonishment among many citizens, since Infanta Cristina had never been publicly associated with this type of artistic activity. The truth is that she, always so discreet about her private life, has managed to keep this side of herself away from the media spotlight.

Nevertheless, now that it has come to light, many see this coincidence as a new sign of the special bond she keeps with her mother. Despite the circumstances that have marked the family in recent years, these kinds of shared hobbies help keep their ties alive.

Queen Sofía And Infanta Cristina Have Someone In The Family To Carry On This Passion

The discovery doesn't end there. The same report points out that this hobby may also be shared by Princess Leonor, granddaughter of Queen Sofía and niece of Infanta Cristina. In fact, some of the photos recently used in a tribute video for Infanta Sofía on her graduation may have been taken by her.

This makes photography a silent tradition within the Royal Household. It's an activity that doesn't appear in official schedules or protocol events, but it undoubtedly reflects a more intimate and human aspect of its members.

This kind of news provides a kinder and more approachable view of public figures who are often surrounded by formality and distance. Knowing that Queen Sofía and her daughter get emotional when capturing moments with their camera, like any citizen, humanizes their public image.

It also shows that, within an institution as rigid as the monarchy, there's room for personal passions, creativity, and individual expression. This is something the people value more and more.
