When one thinks of royal fashion, it’s easy for the mind to directly wander to the likes of Kate Middleton or Meghan Markle.

But there’s another royal who we can’t forget when it comes to immaculate, inspiring and oh-so-chic style – Queen Letizia of Spain.

And now, the stunning Spaniard has us spellbound once again as she wears a slew of stunning outfits during an historic royal tour of Cuba, that marks a huge milestone for the royal family.

Indeed this visit is particularly poignant for the royals, as it marks the first time a Spanish monarch has visited the country in nearly 400 years.

The visit comes as Cuba celebrates the 500th anniversary of Havana, and was arranged between Spain and Cuba as a way to strengthen ties between the two countries.

The visit from the Spaniards comes following a visit undertaken by the British royals in 2019 – which was also an historic moment.

Indeed Prince Charles and Duchess Camilla were the first British royals to visit the country on a royal tour.

The royal tour of Cuba marks a significant milestone for Spain.
