Today Duchess of Cambridge Catherine made her first appearance since the announcement of 3^rd Cambridge baby. The outing signals the fast recovery Kate is making from the severe morning sickness she was suffering since September.

Duchess spent the morning with children at the Lawn Tennis Association. She took the patronage of the Association from Her Majesty the Queen in December last year who held the role for 64 years.

Catherine was briefed about the latest activities of the association as well as about the LTA’s mission to get more people playing tennis on arrival at the National Tennis Centre in London.

On Court 1 Duchess joined children, in on-court tennis practice, who are benefiting from the Tennis for Kids campaign.

Throughout 2017, Tennis for Kids will give 22,500 children the chance to play & enjoy tennis through free quality coaching and a free racket.

Queen Letizia in tweed elegance at King Jaime I Awards

15/08/201930/10/2017 by Pawanpreet Gill

Queen Letizia started her week with another prominent award ceremony on Monday. She was present at Market of the Merchants Valencia to deliver the 29th edition of the “Rey Jaime I Awards (King James I Awards)”.

The awards that were created in 1989 by the Generalitat Valenciana and the Valencian Foundation of Advanced Studies, under the honorary presidency of His Majesty the King Don Juan Carlos, with the objective of uniting, in studies and research, scientific and business entities, and thus promote research and scientific development in Spain.

After the awards ceremony the Queen spoke some words in Spanish and Valencian, in which she highlighted that “surrounded by excellence in this delivery of the Rey Jaime I awards, I would like to promote the idea, that we all share, that knowledge, science, education, culture (also business culture), innovation, this idea, is what will continue to lead us to the place where, each one from his responsibility, we will continue to grow as a country in a better and fairer Spain”.

Usually, both King Felipe and Queen Letizia both preside over this ceremony, but today due to the Catalonia Crisis King Felipe, who has cancelled all the engagements of the week, was absent.

For the occasion, Queen Letizia premiered another Felipe Varela number.

The white tweed dress coat is made up of silver and nude ribbons.

The dress features three-quarter sleeves, front pockets and lapel neckline with metallic buttons on the front and slits on the back hem of the skirt. The high light of the dress was Trompe-l’oeil silver wide belt.

The style and fabric of the dress are quite similar to another tweed skirt suit from Felipe Varela that is already part of Letizia’s wardrobe.

On Thursday night, Queen Letizia of Spain presided over the ceremony of delivery of Journalism awards hosted by the ABC newspaper annually at ABC house in Madrid. The prizes delivered in three major categories are worth €10,000.

The prize “Mariano de Cavia”, instituted in 1920, distinguishes articles or chronicles with signature or a usual pseudonym. This year the awards go to filmmaker José Luis Garci, for his article “Hollywood Gil”, published in the newspaper ABC on December 26, 2016

For its part, the “Luca de Tena” prize, created in 1929, recognizes outstanding journalistic trajectories in the defence of the values that inspire the founding principles of ABC: technical innovation, literary requirement and informative independence. This award goes to the director of the newspaper “El Mercurio”, of Santiago de Chile, Cristián Zegers, for his career at the head of the newspaper of reference of the Chilean press.

Finally, cartoonist Andrés Rábago García “El Roto”, for the cartoon published in the newspaper “El País” on January 23, 2016, was given the prize “Mingote”, that is being awarded since 1966, alternatively to jokes, cartoons or drawings and photographs.

Queen Letizia who herself was a successful and prominent journalist before marrying the then Prince Felipe, addressed the gathering and remarked, “these almost centennial awards of the newspaper ABC” honour “the work of our three winners and, by extension, to remember the validity of the press – journalism, journalists – be, you are, that stable and rigorous reference “.

Usually King and Queen both attend the ceremony, but tonight Queen attended the event alone. For the occasion, Queen Letizia chose a bold and beautiful Spanish look.
