The Spanish royals have had a busy week. Only yesterday did Letizia attend a meeting at the Spanish Federation for Rare Diseases in the country’s capital city. 

And over the weekend, she flew to Athens with husband King Felipe to attend King Constantine II of Greece’s funeral.

The royal couple greeted King Constantine’s grieving son Crown Prince Pavlos on the steps of Orthodox Metropolitan Cathedral.

For the sombre occasion, Letizia styled her hair in a chic updo and opted for minimal jewellery to offset her tailored black coat dress.

Next came a role at ABC, a popular national newspaper that enjoys the third largest circulation in Spain, before spells at EFE and Mexican publication Siglo 21, which is based in Guadelajara.

Back in Spain a year later, she worked for the Spanish version of Bloomberg, a news channel and agency specialising in economics, before moving to CNN+.
