I saw a video of the opening and they were speaking in English.
And Felipe not only studied in the US. He also spent a year in a Canadian high school. And English is his maternal language, the language Queen Sofia has always used with him.
Do you know if she has also taught him Greek?
Probably English. Felipe studied in the US and is fluent in it as is WA who spent a year at the Atlantic College in Wales.
WA does speak some Spanish but I'm not sure he's fluent in it. His wife and daughters are.
Someone asked me on my Facebook History of European Royalty what language these two kings would converse in? I don't have an answer! What language would it be?
On October 10 King Willem-Alexander will host a private lunch for King Felipe of Spain before they both will attend the official opening of a special exhibition at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
