Actress Meryl Street was the most high-profile winner at the Princess of Asturias Awards this year.
The Princess of Asturias Foundation held the ceremony in Oviedo in the Principality of Asturias earlier this month. It’s the most high-profile award given by the Spanish Royal Family.
In attendance at the Campoamor Theater were King Felipe, Queen Letizia, Queen Sofia, Princess Leonor and Infanta Sofia. Princess Leonor holds the Asturias title as heir to the Spanish throne.
Princess Leonor handed out the certificates herself. She is preparing to take an oath to Parliament upon turning 18.
Other winners included: Haruki Murakami in letters, Eliud Kipchoge in sport and Mary’s Meals in concord, among others.
Events related to the Princess of Asturias Awards last three days. There’s a concert the day before the awards presentation and a visit to an Asturian community the day after.
