Royal Profile: Doña María Sofía Zurita y de Borbón

Doña María Sofía Emilia Carmen Zurita y de Borbón was born on 16 September 1975 as the daughter of Infanta Margarita of Spain, The Duchess of Sorina, The 2nd Duchess of Hernani and Carlos Zurita y Delgado {Source}. She has one older brother {Source}:

She is presumably named for:


  1. Maria: for her maternal grandmother, Princess Maria Mercedes of Bourbon-Two Sicilies and paternal grandmother, María del Carmen Delgado y Fernández de Santaella
  2. Sofia: her maternal aunt Queen Sofia of Spain
  3. Emilia: no idea, but it is a Spanish form of Emily or Amelia
  4. Carmen: for her paternal grandmother, María del Carmen Delgado y Fernández de Santaella

Not much is known about her. Her cousin, King Felipe VI of Spain, is the king of Spain. She would be extremely distantly in succession for the British throne through her greatx2 grandmother, Princess Beatrice of The United Kingdom if she were not Catholic.
