When the Spanish royal family have a photocall with ocean views in Palma de Mallorca, you'd better believe it's going to be beautiful. King Felipe VI, Queen Letizia, Princess Leonor, and Princess SofĂa [1] took time out from their annual vacation to Mallorca to pose for a new set of family photos. The Almudaina Palace backdrop, complete with an ocean view and palm trees, may have you mistaking these shots for the pages of a vacation brochure. Of course, the family aren't strangers to glamorous photocalls: their Christmas cards [2] and shots outside their palaces [3] are just as beautiful.
It's been an exciting year for the Spanish royals. Princess Leonor received the Order of the Golden Fleece [4], a symbolic step in her journey to the throne, which was presented by her father, King Felipe VI. The sisters also apparently spent a month at camp in America [5] ahead of their traditional family vacation on the idyllic Balearic island.
