Queen Letizia and King Felipe put on a united front with their daughters and extended family as they take their annual summer trip to Mallorca following a tough year blighted by 'affair' claims

The Spanish royals put on a united front as they enjoyed a big family dinner out in Mallorca.

Taking advantage of the stunning summer weather on the island, Felipe VI and his wife Letizia were joined by both their daughters and other regal relatives.

The King's mother, Queen Sofia, and aunt - Princess Irene of Greece and Denmark - was also pictured arriving at Mia restaurant in Palma, along with Tatiana Radziwill - Sofia's second cousin - and her husband Dr Jean Henri Fruchaud.

It's not the first time the diner has enjoyed a royal presence, with the family visiting the same place in September as well.

The frock featured a halter neck detail that showed off the Queen's toned shoulders, and she accessorised her look with a patterned matching clutch.

Some golden strappy sandals completed the look, as the mother-of-two opted for a dewy and understated make-up look. 

Meanwhile her daughter, Crown Princess Leonor, 18, was elegant in a taupe and navy jumpsuit and fun blue handbag.

She wore her long tresses down in a sleek style, and accentuated her glowy skin with blush.

Her younger sister - Infanta Sofía of Spain - was similarly sophisticated in a green maxi dress.

The 17-year-old royal and her sibling both smiled for photos as they arrived for dinner with their family last night.

King Felipe, 56, was dapper in a white linen shirt and black trousers, perfect for the blazing Mallorcan weather. 

He was pictured arm in arm with his mother Queen Sofia, 85, who looked healthy as ever in a red shirt and white trousers.

The regal relatives appeared to be in good spirits as they enjoyed their evening together while on their Mallorcan getaway.

And Mia appears to be the spot for VIP guests - as actress Teri Hatcher, 59, was pictured enjoying dinner with her daughter at the same restaurant.

The united display comes after a challenging few months for the monarchs - after bombshell claims made by the Queen's ex-brother-in-law, who alleges that he had an 'affair' with the royal after her marriage to King Felipe.

The Spanish Royal Family was rocked by outlandish claims from Jaime Del Burgo  - who in July caused shockwaves again when he claimed that he is still in contact with the mother-of-two in an interview with Argentinian newspaper Clarín.

The Household has since put on a strong united front - with Letizia having not been pictured undertaking a solo outing before since June 25 - but recently making the leap to appear on her own again last month.

Instead, the glamorous Queen was surrounded by her supportive family during engagements, appearing alongside her lookalike daughters, Infanta Sofia and Princess Leonor, or clinging onto her husband's arm.

Del Burgo dated Queen Letizia in the late 1990s when she was still working as a newsreader, before going on to marry her sister, Telma, from 2012 until 2014. 

However, in a bombshell book released in November 2023, called Letizia y Yo and written by 91-year-old journalist Jaime Penafiel, Del Burgo alleged he and the Spanish Queen carried on their romantic affair even as she was about to walk down the aisle to marry King Felipe. 

Since the explosive book was published, Jaime Penafiel has been sacked from his newspaper El Mundo. 

In the book, the businessman told the author that he met Letizia before 2000 and their relationship began on a romantic trip to Venice, years before she met King Felipe.

Jaime - who is the son of the former politician Jaime Ignacio del Burgo - claims he was planning to propose to Letizia when she announced that she was dating a mysterious 'diplomat' over dinner at the Ritz hotel in Madrid in 2002.

Describing how 'serious and significant' their relationship was, Panafiel made the unlikely claim that Jaime was 'carrying an engagement ring his his pocket' that evening.

Letizia reportedly told him that she had 'met someone who would oblige her to quit her profession', which Jaime said led him to deduce her mystery partner was Felipe.

After the pair reportedly decided to just be friends, Jaime is said to have advised Letizia: 'Don't announce the romance, just the wedding.'

Following their engagement announcement in 2003, Letizia - who had divorced her first husband in 1999 - reportedly asked Jaime to be a witness at their wedding.

Jaime also made the incredible claim that the Queen asked to see him the night before the wedding at the exclusive El Latigazo restaurant in Madrid - where she asked him to 'never leave' her.

He sensationally claimed: 'When we met, she took hold of my hand and asked me why I had never asked her to marry me. Obviously I didn't reply. I encouraged her as best I could. The last thing she said to me before we said goodbye to each other in that restaurant was a request: "Never leave me."'

Following the wedding, Jaime described how Letizia was like a 'fox in a chicken coop' as she was 'cleverer than any of them'.

Del Burgo - who says the Queen nicknamed him her 'yogi pal' - claims he still had a romantic relationship with Letizia even after the wedding in 2004. He also claims he has kept 'photographs, videos, mobile phones' and text messages as evidence.

In the book, Jaime sensationally claims that Letizia whispered that she loved him when they were lying in a hammock by a pool at her home following Princess Leonor's birth.

One of the most damaging claims Jaime reportedly makes is that Queen Letizia suggested they have a child together using a surrogate in Los Angeles.

Penafiel goes on to write that when Sofia was born, Jaime del Burgo became uncle to both of the girls.

It then quotes him as saying: 'It was a beautiful period. I didn't have children, and those girls made me so happy. I was working in Brazil and suffered a pulmonary embolism.

'I was in intensive care for a fortnight. I managed to get the Albert Einstein Hospital to give me a telephone Letizia and I spoke to each other every day on [the phone].

'During my visits to Madrid I would often go to the cinema with Felipe, Letizia and some friends. Letizia and I would always sit together, holding hands. They were moments of happiness.'

However in August 2011, Jaime alleges Letizia abruptly ended their relationship when she called him and said: 'We can't continue seeing each other.'

Following this, Jaime alleges that a female friend told him to get in touch with Telma - who he had met when he first started dating Letizia.

The following year, the pair got engaged after just two months of dating. The Queen's sister already had her daughter Amanda from her relationship with ex-partner Enrique Martin Llop.

At this time, Jaime claims he was still close to Letizia and Felipe and he claimed he bonded with his future wife after the four of them went to the cinema in Madrid one day.

After tying the knot in an intimate ceremony, the couple celebrated their marriage with a larger reception in Italy - which was attended by their family. 

Jaime del Burgo is quoted in the book as saying: 'When the guests congratulated us, Letizia’s turn came and kissing me on the cheek, she whispered into my ear, "We’ll be together again."'

In 2012, the pair relocated to New York to start their married life - but Telma returned to Barcelona the same year before announcing their permanent separation in 2014.

 He then goes on to outrageously claim that Letizia 'didn't stop until she managed to make [Jaime's marriage fail' - citing it as the 'only battle he'd lost in his life'.

In December, Jaime posted a selfie of Queen Letizia on X as 'evidence' of their relationship.

In the selfie, the royal can be seen wearing a black pashmina - which Jaime claims belonged to him - and he also typed out a message, supposedly sent to him by the Spanish Queen.

It read: 'Love. I wear your pashmina. It's like feeling you by my side. It takes care of me.

'It protects me. I count the hours until we see each other again. Love you. Get out of here. Yours,'

After sharing the image, other X users questioned the validity of Jaime's claims - given there is no evidence that Letizia sent him the photo or accompanying message.

A spokesperson for the Spanish Royal Family previously told FEMAIL: 'We have no comment to make about this.'
