Zarzuela confirms the happy news about Queen Letizia: very little time left
Felipe VI's wife is going to experience a moment in a few days that makes her especially excited and has her very emotional
From Palacio de la Zarzuela, a piece of news has been confirmed that has filled Queen Letizia with excitement. It is not just another official commitment. It is an event that, although part of her busy institutional agenda, has a very personal and emotional component.
In a few days, Queen Letizia will experience a very special moment. She will do so in the context of a public event where, beyond the solemnity, memories, emotions, and old professional ties intertwine. On the 14th, she will preside over the awarding of Spanish Red Cross decorations, as part of the celebration of World Red Cross and Red Crescent Day.

A ceremony that this year holds an even more endearing significance for her. Yes, because among the people who will receive a medal is a woman whom the queen knows very well. It is Almudena Ariza, her former colleague at TVE.
Zarzuela reveals the happy moment Queen Letizia is going to experience
Zarzuela has released Queen Letizia's agenda for the coming days, and as usual, it is full of activities. In fact, these days, she has had commitments outside Spain, and next week she will continue with an equally intense line of work. Amid so many institutional events, one stands out for its emotional character.
The Romea Theater in Murcia will be the setting for the emotional meeting between the wife of Felipe VI and Almudena Ariza. She will receive one of the mentioned decorations for her commitment to rigorous information and her professional career as a journalist.
They both coincided in the TVE newsroom and worked together on the program Informe Semanal, even co-signing a joint report. At that time, they forged a relationship of camaraderie that, to this day, remains alive in both of their memories.
Ariza, currently one of the most respected journalists in the country, has not hesitated to praise the monarch recently. Specifically, she has said of Letizia that "she was a great journalist, reporter, and colleague. We got along very well and connected a lot."

These reunions are not common in the queen's day-to-day institutional life, which makes this award ceremony a special opportunity to show her more approachable side. In fact, it would not be the first time she breaks protocol at a public event to express sincere emotions. Everything points to May 14th not being the exception.
The connection between Queen Letizia's past and present
This type of event shows how Queen Letizia keeps alive the connection with her past as a journalist. It is not unusual for the current consort of Felipe VI to still feel part of that world in which she worked passionately for years. Zarzuela's agenda rarely leaves room for personal encounters, but this time fate has made a unique moment possible.
The awarding of distinctions by the Red Cross will also recognize other prominent figures in the humanitarian and social fields. Among this year's awardees are Professor César Bona, the Burkina Faso Red Cross organization, and solidarity entities like Nasco Feeding Minds. However, the name that has resonated most in the media has been Almudena Ariza.

Zarzuela has not provided further details on how the event will unfold, but everything indicates that Queen Letizia will have a leading role in it. Although her presence alone already adds shine to the ceremony, the expectation has multiplied. All in light of the possibility that she will share a moment of closeness and conversation with her former colleague.
The image of both reuniting on stage will not only be symbolic. It will also represent the union between two worlds: that of committed journalism and that of modern monarchy. A queen who doesn't forget where she comes from and who, when the occasion allows, doesn't hesitate to show her most human side.
