What Princess of Asturias has kept silent has been discovered

Lately, Princess of Asturias has been in the news because she has started her new stage of military training at the Air Academy in Murcia. Now she is in the spotlight because what she had kept absolutely silent has come to light. We are referring to the day when she would present Valdesoto with the award as Exemplary Town of Asturias 2025.

Specifically, the media outlet Monarquía Confidencial has revealed that date. Thus, it has published that this moment will take place on October 25, the day after the celebration of the awards that bear Leonor's name.

For the Asturian municipality, the visit of the young woman and her parents will be a source of pride. They will walk through its streets, discover its heritage, and will have the opportunity to get to know the traditions and cultural richness of its residents up close. Among the attractions they will show are local crafts and the natural surroundings that surround this town.

The fact that Leonor will lead the event shows the importance of her role as heir and her involvement in the life of the Crown. Little by little, she is taking on public duties that strengthen her bond with Asturias and consolidate her preparation as future queen of Spain.
