In her speech, Princess Leonor said: “I carry Asturias in my heart. And it will always be the beloved homeland that the anthem says, the land that gives its name to the title that designates me as Princess and, therefore, servant of Spain, and the place of origin of my maternal family. I said it in my first speech in Oviedo, in 2019: I have Asturian blood. And that not only gives character: it is a pride and a joy.”

Princess Leonor wore a Pedro Del Hierro suit with PINKCHICguagua pumps and a bespoke Ansa per Ansa bag. She also wore a Falconeri jumper (with thanks to Vanitatis). She paired the outfit with her mother’s Gold & Roses earrings.
