The Spanish princess - 17-year-old Leonor - who is expected to ascend the throne in the future, has begun military training that will last three years. The first photos of the Princess of Asturias in her military uniform have already appeared online.

Although the royal family explained that the military background is a mandatory requirement for rulers, there are rumors that this is how the family pays for the "sins" of the scandalous King Juan Carlos, Leonor's grandfather, who abdicated the throne due to a series of scandals. OBOZREVATEL will show how the young princess looks (to see the photo, scroll to the end of the page).

Leonor's intentions to undergo a three-year service announced back in early 2023, but only the other day she wore a military uniform for the first time.

The teenager was escorted to the Zaragoza Military Academy by Queen Letizia, King Philip VI and the monarchs' youngest daughter Sofia. The farewell turned out to be quite emotional. The future ruler took only one suitcase with her.

The first photos of Leonor, who sat at a desk, stood in formation and learned the basics of military science, have recently appeared. The first year the princess will study in Zaragoza, and the second year the girl will go to the Naval School, where she will be trained, in particular, on a sailing ship. Leonor will spend her third year at the General Air Force Academy in San Javier.

After graduation, the princess will receive the lieutenant epaulettes of all three branches of the military. After gaining military experience, he will go to university to study.

It is rumored that such a decision was taken because the royal family wants to "whiten" their reputation. The case is about Leonor's grandfather, who in 2014 abdicated the throne.

He was accused of corruption schemes, which were investigated in Geneva. The former ruler not only passed the crown to his son, but also fled the country, so the monarchs now have to restore their authority in the eyes of their subjects.
