King Felipe VI and Queen Letizia of Spain have released official family portraits to mark their 20th wedding anniversary.

In the sweet images, the King, 56, and his wife, 51, stood with their two daughters, Princesses Leonor and Sofia, for the new portraits.

On May 22, the couple will commemorate their 2004 wedding at the Almudena Cathedral in Madrid.

Two decades have passed and the family seemed closer than ever, despite being shaken earlier this year by Shocking accusations made by Letizia’s brother-in-law that he had once been romantically linked to her.

The Queen, donning a pair of surprisingly casual white sneakers, looked as cheerful as ever as she posed alongside her husband in family photos.

In one image, King Philip stood behind his wife and placed both hands on her shoulders, perhaps to indicate his unwavering support.

The couple turned their heads away from the camera, while in the distance their two daughters were seen walking towards them.

Set in an idyllic green setting, the images appeared to have been taken in the grounds of their home at the Zarzuela Palace on the outskirts of Madrid.
