Nov. 2005, Spain's Crown Princess Letizia gave birth to her first child, a girl who becomes second in line to the throne after her father Crown Prince Felipe.

Princess Leonor is second in line to the throne after Prince Felipe, who is the third child and only son of King Juan Carlos. But her place in the royal succession could drop if Felipe and Letizia have a son.

The Spanish constitution now allows a female heir to the throne only if she has no brothers. Felipe's older sisters, Princesses Elena and Cristina, are below him in the line of succession.

However, the Socialist government is looking into changing the constitution to give female royals the same right as males to accede to the throne, in which case Leonor could become queen one day.

Felipe said Leonor will be educated for that possibility.

Norway's future queen has made a high-profile visit to one of her country's most important neigbours. But little Princess Ingrid Alexandra doesn't have to concern herself with international affairs just yet, because her father Crown Prince Haakon was taking charge of the official duties.

Indeed it seems likely that the infant's mere presence in Copenhagen would have been enough to charm the people of Denmark. The infant, who reached her first birthday on January 21, showed off her crawling skills during a special photoshoot to mark her big day.

Princess Ingrid Alexandra will one day become modern Norway's first queen. Until recently only males were allowed to accede to the throne, but the country amended its constitution in 1990, clearing the way for a woman to become head of state.
