Queen Letizia just admitted the rumor about Princess Leonor is 100% true

Queen Letizia has just publicly confirmed what until now was just a rumor about Princess Leonor. During a visit to Badía del Vallès with King Felipe, Letizia surprised everyone by admitting that in 30 or 40 years, Leonor will return to check on the city's progress.

The revelation took place during an informal conversation with a group of young people from the Badía social housing complex. It was at that moment that Queen Letizia said the phrase that has spread throughout the country. Is it a veiled promise or a wish with institutional weight?

King Felipe and Queen Letizia draw all eyes during their visit to Catalonia

The visit of the royals to Catalonia was marked by symbolism and institutional commitment. First, with the emotional visit to the Virgin of Montserrat for the monastery's millennium. Then, with the celebration of the 50th anniversary of the emblematic Badía del Vallès neighborhood, where the queen's words marked an unexpected turn.

The day began with a solemn event in Montserrat, where the royals of Spain paid tribute to the millennium of the monastery's founding. Accompanied by Catalan authorities and representatives of the clergy, the ceremony took place with respect and emotion. However, it was in the afternoon when the most human and spontaneous moment of the day was experienced.

In Badía del Vallès, a working-class neighborhood and a symbol of 1970s urban planning, hundreds of residents took to the streets to welcome King Felipe and Queen Letizia. Many carried fans that the royals themselves signed amid smiles and greetings. It was a scene of closeness and naturalness, far from the strict protocol that usually surrounds this type of event.

The residents not only appreciated the visit, but experienced it as a form of recognition. In that context, the conversation with the neighborhood's young people took place. A group of teenagers approached the royals, not expecting to become the protagonists of one of the most talked-about phrases of the day.

Queen Letizia admits that Princess Leonor will visit Badía del Vallès as queen

In front of these young people, Queen Letizia didn't limit herself to an institutional greeting, but went much further. Looking at them with complicity, she told them quite naturally: "In 30 or 40 years, when Leonor comes, you all come back here and tell her how the city has evolved." The phrase was as unexpected as it was revealing, because it confirms that Zarzuela is considering the idea that the princess will make a future visit to Badía.

The queen didn't speak in the conditional, but spoke in affirmative terms. It was a resounding statement that turns that rumor that had been circulating for months into an official promise. The phrase was full of symbolism, because it spoke of the future, the passage of time, and the role that Princess Leonor will have as future queen.

But it didn't end there. Letizia, with her warm style, continued with an endearing comment: "You'll be very grown up by then, maybe you'll already have children, we'll see." The phrase brought smiles to those present, who were visibly moved by the warmth of the moment.

King Felipe jokes about the future of the children of Badía del Vallès

After the queen's words, King Felipe, with his discreet style, chimed in with a phrase that sparked laughter: "Maybe you'll have run for mayor and everything." He was referring to one of the young people who were listening alertly. The comment not only lightened the mood, but reinforced the closeness the royals showed throughout the day.

This spontaneous and relaxed attitude contrasts with the more protocol-driven image traditionally associated with the monarchy. Queen Letizia and King Felipe not only signed fans and chatted with residents, but also shared jokes, glances, and promises full of hope for the future. That is precisely the path Princess Leonor seems to want to follow: a closer monarchy, one that doesn't live apart from the citizens.
