Royal sisters Princess Leonor and Infanta Sofia might be living in different countries, but they proved their bond to be as close as ever at their latest family outing.

Infanta Sofia, 16, has reunited with her family to take part in their annual visit to the principality of Asturias in northwest Spain.

The teenager is currently on an October break from her studies at UWC Atlantic College in Wales, where she enrolled in August.

Meanwhile, Princess Leonor, who turns 18 on 31 October, is currently undergoing military training in Zaragoza.

The princesses and their parents, King Felipe and Queen Letizia, paid a visit to the parishes of Arroes, Pion and Candanal, which have been honoured as the 2023 Best Asturian Villages.

Princess Leonor matched with her sister in a pair of white trousers, trainers and similar raincoats.

The future queen teamed her ensemble with a denim shirt, while Sofia opted for a teal sweatshirt.
