Princess Letizia of Spain is the Queen of Spain and wife of King Felipe VI who has a net worth of $10 million dollars. King Felipe VI became king on June 19, 2014 on the abdication of his father Juan Carlos I.
Princess Letizia of Spain was born September 15, 1972 in Oviedo, Asturias, Spain. Prior to her marriage to Felipe, Letizia was a journalist and news anchor. It has been suggested in the press that, although Letizia is from a working-class lineage, that she is also a descendant of an untitled family descended from medieval nobility who served as Constables of Castile. After completing her studies at the Complutense University of Madrid, she spent some time in Guadalajara, Mexico working at the newspaper Siglo XXI. After returning to Spain, she worked for the Spanish version of the economic channel Bloomberg before moving to the news network CNN+, a Spanish 24-hour television news channel.
In 2000, she moved to TVE, where she worked for the news channel 24 Horas. In 2002, she anchored the weekly news report programme Informe Semanal and later the daily morning news programme Telediario Matinal on TVE 1. In August 2003, a few months before her engagement to Felipe, Letizia was promoted to anchor of the TVE daily evening news programme Telediario 2, the most viewed newscast in Spain. In September 2001, she broadcasted live from Ground Zero following the 9/11 attacks in New York and in 2003 she filed reports from Iraq following the war. On November 1, 2003, to the surprise of many, the Royal Household announced Letizia’s engagement to the Prince of Asturias. Letizia then moved into a wing of Zarzuela Palace until the day of the wedding.
