Official announcement about Princess Leonor and the royal family: it's important and special

An official announcement has marked a turning point in the public perception of Princess Leonor and the Royal Family. This is reflected in the Fifth Borbón Report, prepared by Vanitatis in collaboration with IMOP Insights, which analyzes the evolution of the monarchy's image. The study places Leonor as one of the most highly regarded figures, revealing a fact of great institutional value: the princess represents a strong hope for the stability of the Crown.

This report, which gathers public opinion about the monarchy, provides revealing conclusions that are not without nuance. While Felipe VI consolidates his legitimacy, Queen Letizia and her daughter Leonor reach their highest historical approval ratings, but warnings also arise: young people show growing indifference. Will Leonor be able to reconnect with this generation that is key for the future?

The monarchy recovers after turbulent years marked by Juan Carlos I's scandals

The context that leads to this institutional improvement is significant. The monarchy has gone through a complex decade, with critical moments due to King Juan Carlos's scandals. Since 2014, with Felipe VI's proclamation, the focus has been on regaining lost credibility.

Vanitatis, together with IMOP Insights, confirms a clear trend: the institution is perceived as more solid. Although the figure of the emeritus king still weighs as the main source of symbolic erosion, the truth is that the Crown has managed to react. This has been possible especially thanks to a gradual renewal of its image, led by the two women who have garnered the most support: Letizia and Leonor.

Meanwhile, King Felipe VI also keeps a stable approval rating. The report reveals that 43.7% of those surveyed approve of his management, compared to 21.1% who disapprove. The remaining 35.2% are in a neutral position.

In addition, there is a marked gender difference: women tend to show more moderate criticism toward the king, a constant that has been repeated in all previous studies. Another relevant fact is that, for the first time, more than 36% of the population believe the monarchy is stronger today than in 2014.

However, not everything is positive, since the age group between 24 and 35 years old shows a clear distance from the institution. According to the study, "the increase in indifference among young people is the most negative finding of the report." This generation experienced their adolescence marked by the scandals of the emeritus king, which has shaped their relationship with the Royal House.

The study announces the Princess Leonor phenomenon

Princess Leonor is consolidating herself as the Royal Family's greatest asset, surpassing all expectations of public approval. Her positive image is growing even among sectors traditionally skeptical of the monarchy, an achievement that no member of the Royal Family had reached in the recent history of these studies.

The heiress's academic training, her recent involvement in institutional events, and her reserved yet firm profile connect especially with a young audience. This phenomenon is particularly significant considering that the age group between 24 and 35 years old has traditionally represented the most critical sector.

Her ability to generate consensus transcends traditional ideological lines, positioning her as a future figure capable of renewing the monarchy's codes of communication and closeness. Princess Leonor embodies a new generation of leadership that combines institutional tradition with contemporary sensitivity, a complex balance that she seems to have achieved successfully.

Queen Letizia, at her best moment since joining the Royal Family

Meanwhile, Queen Letizia is experiencing her best moment in terms of public perception, surpassing 60% favorable opinions for the first time. Her austere and professional style, along with her distance from the classic queen profile, have become her main strengths in the eyes of the public.

The most surprising finding of the report reveals that even among those who declare themselves republicans, Letizia is the most highly regarded member of the Royal Family. This uniqueness reinforces her role as a symbolic bridge between the monarchical institution and social sectors traditionally distant from it, a function of enormous strategic value for the Crown.

Her previous professional career as a journalist, her commitment to social causes, and her way of carrying out institutional representation have shaped a unique profile in the history of Spanish queens. The public perceives in Queen Letizia a close, committed, and authentic figure, qualities that translate into historically high approval levels.

The official announcement included in the Fifth Borbón Report confirms that Princess Leonor and the Royal Family are experiencing their best moment. Letizia and Felipe VI also contribute to this stability, although the generational challenge remains. Will this new stage be enough to reconcile the monarchy with the generations that still view it with suspicion?
