Two princesses are rewriting the rules on what a future queen is supposed to look like — and the story is told entirely with their jewelry boxes. Spain's Princess Leonor and the Netherlands' Princess Amalia are both heirs apparent, both members of the same Gen Z cohort now stepping into royal life, and both destined, eventually, for a crown. But side by side, they could not be telling more different stories with their jewelry.

Diamonds have always carried outsized meaning in royal circles — treasured by some dynasties, quietly set aside by others, but historically the clearest marker of status that Europe's reigning houses had at their disposal.
That symbolism is fracturing along generational lines. As Gen Z heirs move into the spotlight, the old formula of grand dynastic jewels signaling status is splitting in two: one path toward deliberate restraint, the other toward unapologetic opulence.
Leonor has planted her flag firmly in the first camp, favoring costume pieces, pearls and low-key designers over anything resembling a vault heirloom. Amalia has done the opposite, reaching for the Orange-Nassau family's most formidable pieces when the occasion calls for it.

Princess Leonor has officially become a university student after spending three years in the military.
The eldest daughter of King Felipe and Queen Letizia traded in her uniform for the classroom on Monday morning as she was spotted arriving at Carlos III University of Madrid to begin a four-year programme in Political Science.
At just before 9 am, she arrived alongside thousands of new students at the Getafe campus, just outside the capital.
The Princess, 20, looked effortlessly stunning in a casual white **** on-down T-shirt and denim jeans, with a black shoulder bag containing her studying essentials. She looked like a typical student with her blonde locks pulled back into a neat French braid.

With Queen Elizabeth's death in 2022, Queen Margrethe of Denmark became Europe's last reigning queen. Her abdication less than two years later marked the end of an era for Europe's female monarchs. While there are currently no women sitting on Europe's thrones, that will one day change. Waiting in the wings is a new generation of Princesses poised to become Queens Regnant.
Sweden's Crown Princess Victoria, Belgium's Princess Elisabeth, the Netherlands' Princess Catharina-Amalia and Spain's Princess Leonor are all first in line to their respective thrones, while Norway's Princess Ingrid Alexandra and Sweden's Princess Estelle are expected to succeed their respective parents in the future.
These Princess are the faces of the future, who will usher in a new era of Queens across Europe.
Born in 1977, Crown Princess Victoria is the eldest child of King Carl XVI Gustaf and Queen Silvia of Sweden's children. At the time of her birth, Sweden had an agnatic order of succession, meaning that the throne could only be inherited by males.
But in 1980, Sweden introduced absolute primogeniture, making Crown Princess Victoria the heir to the Swedish throne and moving her ahead of her younger brother, Prince Carl Philip.

Infanta Sofia of Spain proved she was the queen of royal recycling this weekend as she stepped out in a stunning dress previously worn by both her mother and her older sister.
The Spanish royal, 19, was seen in a gorgeous off-the-shoulder blue and white dress for a family dinner at the Mia Restaurant in Palma on Friday evening.
The gown, a collaboration between designer Stella Jean and Desigual, looked very familiar – as in previous summers it's been worn by Queen Letizia and Princess Leonor, 20.
Letizia, 53, wore it to the 2023 Balearic Island Reception three years ago at the Marivent Palace, while Leonor wore the piece in August 2025, styling the statement item with gold earrings and navy blue sandals.

While out to dinner in Mallorca over the weekend, Infanta Sofía took a style cue from both her mom Queen Letizia and older sister Princess Leonor. The off-the-shoulder blue maxi dress, from Desigual's collaboration with Stella Jean, was first worn by Queen Letizia in 2023. Last summer, Princess Leonor wore it to the annual reception at Marivent Palace.
While Sofía wore it on a private outing versus the public engagements Letizia and Leonor chose the dress for, the style is still clearly a favorite of the Spanish royals while on their summer vacation in Mallorca. All three women accessorized the dress with espadrilles.

For the daughters of Queen Letizia and King Felipe VI, the Spanish royal family's most in-demand piece isn't a crown jewel or an heirloom gem. Instead, it seems to be a blue-and-white maxi dress.
Last night, Infanta Sofía headed to dinner in Palma de Mallorca with her older sister, Princess Leonor. And for the family outing, she selected a long ruffled dress that we've seen before. With off-the-shoulder cape sleeves and a lightweight feel, the piece was recognizable as the work of Barcelona-based label Desigual, designed in collaboration with Stella Jean.

Queen Letizia of Spain and her daughters, Crown Princess Leonor of Spain and Princess Sofia of Spain, styled their respective spins on summer styling while hosting a dinner for authorities at the Marivent Palace on Tuesday in Palma de Mallorca, Spain.
Queen Letizia led the Spanish royal family's fashion front in a white midi dress by Spanish label Sybilla. The dress was crafted with a rounded collar, save for a sinuous V-shaped neckline. Three-quarter-length sleeves and a midi hem gave the dress a traditional feel, while contrasting diagonal and horizontal lines gave the dress contemporary angles.

While Queen Letizia kept things effortlessly elegant in an ivory striped Sybilla dress and King Felipe opted for a relaxed blue linen shirt with dark trousers, it was Leonor and Sofía who brought the colour to the royal family's annual appearance.

Matias Soulé is at the center of rumors of a possible departure.
Roma will have to sell someone, and the Argentine is the prime suspect.
Further details on the Argentine striker’s future come from Eleonora Trotta of calciomercato.it.
Soulé’s entourage has begun exploratory discussions with Borussia Dortmund, Bayer Leverkusen, Aston Villa, and West Ham.
No official offers have yet been received by Trigoria, but contacts with interested clubs will continue in the coming days.

Newcastle United and Bournemouth have reportedly approached current Torino scouting chief Enrico Paresce, who already discovered stars for Milan and Roma.
According to Corriere dello Sport and Teleradiostereo journalist Eleonora Trotta, the two Premier League clubs have asked around for the availability of the Italian talent hunter.
Although he only turned 40 in March, Paresce has a long career behind him in Italian football and beyond.
He was a talent scout for the likes of Roma, Spezia, Siena and Milan, where he provided crucial indications leading to the signing of Theo Hernandez for the Rossoneri and goalkeeper Mile Svilar at the Giallorossi.
