Princess Leonor will enter the Naval School of Marín this Thursday alone and without the presence of Felipe VI

The Princess of Asturias, Leonor de Borbón y Ortiz, will enter this Thursday 29 as a first-year aspirant at the Naval Military School of Marín (Pontevedra), alone and without the presence of the King. Felipe VI, as expected, will not be present at the event since, according to the agenda published by the Royal Family, he will be in Barcelona for the America’s Cup sailing. Leonor, during the course, will share a room with four women and will embark in January, like all the students, on the training ship Juan Sebastián Elcano. This is the second time that the heiress to the Spanish throne will be at the School since last July 16, coinciding with the feast of the Virgin of Carmen, she accompanied her father in the delivery of the royal dispatches of the new officers of the Navy. and in the oath of the flag of 76 first-year students. Last Monday, more than a hundred new students entered the School. In total, taking into account all the planned incorporations, there are 146 students, 93 without a degree and 53 with a previous degree, among which are 17 women and several foreign candidates. LEONOR AND JUAN CARLOS I IN THE ESTURE OF PONTEVEDRA Likewise, while Leonor is in Marín, her grandfather, Juan Carlos I, will probably travel to Sanxenxo (Pontevedra) to participate in the remaining regattas of the 6-meter class. The next date on the sailing calendar, at the end of September, is the Rey Juan Carlos regatta and, later, the European 6-meter Championship. In this sense, the emeritus king is already registered on board the “Bribon” to participate in the European Championship and, if this new visit takes place, Juan Carlos I and his granddaughter will only be separated by five nautical miles.
