He returned… 16 days after his first visit to the community devastated by DANA and having experienced what could be the worst moments of his public work, Letizia is back in Valencia, with Felipe VIto continue supporting those affected and in a very different environment from the first time. This announced and highly anticipated visit comes during a period of calm, while the reconstruction of the neighborhood is slowly beginning.
Chiva was the first stop on this journey, along which the towns of Utiel and Letur are also located. The cThe Queen’s commitment to those affected by this flood is clear and firm and demonstrated it in the last acts of his royal agenda, meeting with the entities working on the issue to keep abreast of progress.
Despite the unpleasant incidents that occurred on November 3, where Letizia was seen splashed with mud, scolded and moved to tears by people’s testimonies and complaints, the monarchs did not hesitate to return. This time, the welcome was warmwith grateful applause. Heads and tails.
Crowds of people were waiting for Letizia in Chiva, wanting to share their experiences with her and also thank her for not forgetting them. It’s a promise he made and one he keeps to the letter. This is why, the message he gave upon his arrival in the Valencian city went in that direction.
Asked by a journalist about the motivation for this visit, she was very clear: “Listen, be, share… Be with them, continue to maintain an attention here that must be constant and never diminish.“. We can say it louder but not more clearly. The Valencians appreciated the dedication of the wife of Felipe VI, to whom they dedicated numerous gestures of affection.
Letizia was also close, especially with the children, leaving beautiful images that have little to do with those made two weeks ago. After going to Chiva, after checking the progress of cleaning the mud and other measures taken, the kings head to other affected cities. And not only from Valencia, in the afternoon they will visit Albacete, where DANA has also wreaked havoc.

The new journey of the Kings was marked by security measuresalthough this time there was no mud throwing, but rather applause and anecdotes. The prettiest, featuring a little girl who approached Their Majesties and offered them a drawing. Letizia, excited, hugged her with great affection. He was also interested in the personal experiences of many neighbors and it seems that he even visited one of the affected houses with Felipe. Without a doubt, this return to Valencia marks the end of the controversy.
