Queen Letizia gets bad news: her favorite event is canceled

Doña Letizia will not be attending the scientific monologue competition ‘FameLab’ this year, which has been canceled as reported this morning by ‘El Español’. For the past eight years, we’ve seen the Queen enjoy one of her favorite events, something that won’t happen again after the announcement of her final suspension. The Spanish Foundation of Science and Technology has confirmed that “from FECYT we are going to do a different format monologues, which will not be called ‘FameLab’ nor will it be the same as the British brand, but it will continue to be made because we like it very much and we like it”, a few words that will comfort the royal family. Doña Letizia enjoyed the event last year, when she had to participate wearing a mask due to health restrictions due to the coronavirus.

From the foundation, they have explained that they are still unable to provide specific details about the renewal of the event, but they have made it clear that they are delighted that the King and Queen of Spain will continue to attend the next format. “We are excited that they are coming, but we don’t know much about them yet. This new monologue competition is currently in the definition phase,” they explained. Despite this change in the official agenda of Doña Letizia, will travel with King Felipe VI to Germany next Monday, where they will embark on another state journey that will consist of 48 hours of tireless work. Welcome ceremony where they are received with military honors by the Federal President, Frank-Walter Steinmeier, and the First Lady, Elke Büdenbender, at the Bellevue Palace in Berlin, a gala dinner, among other events already on their agenda.

Surely, the red marked day in this month of October is the arrival of princess Leonor. The heiress to the throne couldn’t travel to Spain on Columbus Day because she couldn’t make it compatible with her classes at the school in Wales, but we’ll be able to see her at the Princess of Asturias Awards on the 28th of this month. Leonor’s studies have postponed the event for a week so she can attend, as the date thus coincides with the start of the fall break at UWC Atlantic College, which ends on November 7. The princess will land in Spain on the 27th and then the whole family will travel to Oviedo for the big day.

friday morning The Kings and their daughters receive the winners in audience and members of Asturian society at the Reconquista hotel in Oviedo, where the family will stay. At noon, the traditional photo of the winners will take place alongside members of the Spanish royal family, and although it has not been confirmed, it appears that Queen Sofia will arrive in Oviedo that morning. In the afternoon, around half past five, the Campoamor theater rolls out its blue carpet to welcome the winners, guests and royals present there. It’s one of Doña Sofía’s favorite events, who we saw last year walking the blue carpet wearing a mask and umbrella to protect herself from the rain.

After all the prizes have been distributed, the family returns to the hotel where there will be an agape that the King and Queen usually attend in a community moment with guests and winners, where Letizia meets old colleagues from her hometown. To date, the Infanta Sofía and Princess Leonor have only stopped by to say hello, although we don’t know what will happen this year. That same Sunday, the kings and their daughters travel to the exemplary city, this year Cadavedo, where they are received by local authorities and neighbors who want a closer look at the four royals. They will then return to Madrid and will certainly be the . to celebrate 17th birthday of the heiress to the throneborn on October 31, 2005. A very intense journey for Leonor, who has to return to England in November.
