Spanish Royals Celebrate Easter


As is tradition, the entire Spanish royal family celebrates the Easter holidays in Palma Mallorca. This year however, Prince Felipe, Princess Letizia and Infanta Leonor will not make the trip due to the advanced state of Princess Letizia's pregnancy she has been advised against flying. The Prince and Princess of Asturias will be spending Easter in Madrid instead, hopefully with Princess Letizia's family as it is the first holiday without her sister Erika, and it would be nice for Erika's daughter Carla to be surrounded by her family.

Here, the family poses in front of the Cathedral in Palma de Mallorca before the traditional Mass of the Resurrection. (Simoneta Gomez-Acebo's (the niece of the King) daughter Maria Fernanda, seems to have joined the family, too, finding a spot for between Infanta Cristina's two youngest sons, Miguel and Pablo Urdangarin.) It seems that new hairdos were the order of the day for the Infantas. Infanta Cristina got bangs and Infanta Elena wore her hair down instead of the usual braid (and occasionally ponytail) she usually has. Victoria de Marichalar looks adorable in her green skirt and white sweater with matching stockings.

As the King and Queen and members of the family arrived a few days earlier, they participated in various Easter processions and enjoyed some time at the park and around Palma Mallorca. Little Irene Urdangarin especially had fun at the park with her mom.
