The Infanta Sofía turns 17 this Mondaywhich will be held at the boarding school in Wales (United Kingdom) where he is studying for high school after learning that he will make his solo institutional debut in the awards ceremony for a National Heritage photography contest.
The anniversary of the youngest daughter of the kings takes place almost two weeks after it was revealed through National Heritage that Felipe VI had assigned her his first institutional role, until now limited to accompanying the kings or Princess Leonor.
The king already anticipated at the beginning of last March that counts on the infanta to represent the Crown.
“The continuity (of the monarchy) is represented today, logically, by the Princess of Asturias, but we must also not forget with the company of her sister, Infanta Sofía, who has to help a lot,” Don Felipe said at an event. with young people at the El Pardo Palace in Madrid on the occasion of the contest ‘What is a king for you?’.
Sofía de Borbón will complete the first of two high school courses in June at the school in Wales, where Princess Leonor also studied the same academic year.
The photographic award also bears the name of the infanta -‘Heritage Objective. Infanta Sofía Photography Contest’ – and the winners will be known in October, although it is not yet known when the awards will be presented.
