Europa Press, en.edatv.news Maximum happiness: royal house confirms the news about Felipe and many end up moved
He and his wife, Queen Letizia, have made a trip with great symbolism that demonstrates their social commitment
There is a great sense of satisfaction these days at the Zarzuela Palace. The Royal Household has confirmed a gesture by King Felipe that has caused emotion both in Spain and beyond our borders. The news has arrived like a ray of hope in times of great tension, and it has once again put the spotlight on the monarch's most human side.
Together with Queen Letizia, Felipe VI has carried out an official trip of deeply symbolic character. This visit has had not only institutional value, but also a human one. Their time in the Canary Islands, and specifically in La Palma, has been met with tears, applause, and words of gratitude.
Royal Household confirms King Felipe's commitment: a visit that touches the heart
The Royal Household has wanted to make visible and reinforce their support for citizens who are still suffering the consequences of one of the greatest natural disasters of recent years. This refers to the eruption of the Cumbre Vieja volcano, on the island of La Palma, which occurred in September 2021. Although almost four years have passed, many people are still trying to rebuild their lives, and the king and queen have not wanted to forget about them.
King Felipe and Queen Letizia recently traveled to the Canary Islands for the Armed Forces Day. This is a date marked on the official calendar that always features the presence of the head of state. This time, in addition to the main event, the king and queen took advantage of the visit to carry out a gesture that has been especially appreciated.
They both traveled to La Palma to meet with residents who were directly affected by the eruption. There, during a close and very human day, they spoke with victims, visited areas still in the process of recovery, and conveyed their emotional and institutional support.
This meeting was not improvised. Just four days after the eruption, King Felipe and his wife traveled to the island. That gesture was deeply moving.
In 2022, they participated in a tribute to the victims. The current visit, therefore, closes an emotional circle with the people of La Palma.
A trip that shows unity, commitment, and closeness from King Felipe
King Felipe and Queen Letizia's trip to La Palma has also served to show the excellent rapport between them. In every public event, they have shown themselves to be close and alert to citizens. This detail has not gone unnoticed by the media or by those who closely follow the work of the Royal Household.
The day was not only focused on listening to those affected, but also on learning about the state of one of the activities most impacted by the volcano: banana cultivation. The king and queen visited agricultural farms located less than 19 mi. (30 km) from the volcanic cone. There, they showed interest in the recovery work, the condition of the land, and the difficulties that still persist in the sector.
The Royal Household has confirmed the symbolic and emotional importance of this visit. This is not an empty protocol, but an act of commitment and humanity. On social media and in the media, the response has been unanimous: emotion, respect, and gratitude.
With this new gesture from King Felipe, thousands of people have felt that they are not alone. In times of uncertainty, these kinds of actions not only generate headlines, but also hope. That's why the emotion is more than justified, because when a gesture is worth more than a thousand words, the people do not forget it.
