Today we take a look at another of our current Queens Consort, Queen Letizia of Spain. Originally from the Asturias region of Spain, from whence her husband drew his pre-regnal title as Prince of Asturias, she is the first Spanish queen consort born in Spain since 1860. Her engagement to King Felipe took the nation by surprise as there had been no hint that the two were dating although both had high profiles. Letizia was a nationally known television journalist. It is said that they struck up a romance after meeting at a dinner party, but they had also crossed paths at the location of an oil spill. Once their engagement was announced, the media dug back through the files to find a photo of them shaking hands. They now have two daughters; the oldest, as heir to the throne, bears the title Princess of Asturias.
