Felipe and Letizia of Spain welcome second daughter
There was cause for nationwide celebration in Spain at the weekend as Princess Letizia and Crown Prince Felipe became parents for a second time with the birth of a daughter on Sunday.
Just hours after the little Sofia was delivered by Caesarean section weighing 7lbs 5oz, her proud dad stepped out of the clinic to share the happy news with the world.
The prince, who was present at the delivery, described his wife as being "very calm" during the birth, but confessed he'd been "a little nervous" - as the Caesarean added a measure of uncertainty to the event. Both mother and daughter are in good health.
The new arrival is third in line to the Spanish throne after her father and her year-and-a-half old sister Leonor. Having apparently toyed with a long list of names, the couple settled on Sofia, after Felipe's mother.
While one of the crown prince's sisters, Elena, has just two children - a son and daughter - his other sibling, Cristina, is a mum of four. Whether or not the latest addition completes Felipe and Letizia's family remains to be seen. For now Felipe says the pair will have "our plate full with work and happiness" in raising Leonor and Sofia.

Delighted Felipe and Letizia present new daughter Sofia
4 MAY 2007
Proud parents Prince Felipe and Princess Letizia showed off the latest addition to their family in Madrid on Friday evening.
Greeting the large crowd of well-wishers who had gathered outside the hospital, the beaming parents presented five-day old baby Sofia to the world. Their daughter, dressed in white and with ribbons at her wrists, slept soundly in the arms of her mum, who was the picture of health after giving birth on Sunday by cesarean section.
While 34-year-old Letizia, elegantly attired in a smart rose-pink suit, cradled the newborn - who is named after her grandmother, Queen Sofia, Felipe carried their elder daughter Leonor. And the 18-month-old youngster was evidently not going to let her little sister steal too much of the limelight, amusing onlookers by grasping a pair of media microphones, much to the delight of those present.
