Now it's official: royal household sources make Princess Leonor's latest update official

Sources close to the royal house have made the exciting news about Princess Leonor de Borbón official

Since her recent entry into the General Military Academy of Zaragoza on August 17, 2023, Leonor has experienced one of the most intense periods of her life. More than 600 days have already passed since the heir to the throne of Spain said goodbye to the Palacio de la Zarzuela to embark on military training. This period has undoubtedly gone far beyond the military training she has undergone.

This is a process designed not only to instruct her in defense and strategy, but also to forge the character of someone destined to become head of state. According to Monarquía Confidencial, citing sources close to the Royal Household, this period has been marked by personal challenges for the princess. Everything suggests that this experience has marked a turning point in Princess Leonor's life.

Far from receiving special treatment, Leonor has been just another member of her class of cadets. The future queen has shared schedules, several routines, many maneuvers and training sessions, accepting the demands of the military regime with discipline and humility. The absence of privileges has been one of the keys to this transformative experience.

One of the most revealing aspects of her adaptation has been her management of financial independence. Like her peers, the princess receives a monthly allowance that doesn't exceed €500, a symbolic but significant amount that encourages responsibility among young people. Leonor has learned to manage her own resources, an essential skill for her personal development and institutional preparation.

Away from her family, the Princess of Asturias has formed new friendships in an environment where camaraderie, shared effort, and mutual respect are essential pillars. These relationships, outside the usual royal environment, have been essential for consolidating a more autonomous, mature, and committed personality for her future role.

The assessment coming from Zaragoza is, without a doubt, exciting and very positive. The sources consulted highlight Leonor's development as a young woman who is increasingly prepared, not only physically and academically, but also on a human level.

This news has been received with enthusiasm among all followers of the Royal Household. They see in Leonor a clear reflection of the future queen's commitment to her country and to the institution she represents.
