Though earlier this month Crown Princess Letizia was forced to cancel a number of appearances due to bothersome symptoms of her pregnancy, the 32-year-old former newsreader seemed to be feeling better as she resumed her official duties this weekend.

Letizia, who is expecting her first child with husband Prince Felipe in November, was – along with the heir to the throne – arguably the most popular visitor to Madrid's book fair on Friday. The charismatic princess was all smiles as she chatted with throngs of schoolchildren who were thrilled to have their photo snapped with the royal mum-to-be.

And on Sunday, Felipe and Letizia travelled to La Coruña, in northwestern Spain, along with King Juan Carlos and Queen Sofia. There, the crown princess assisted the royal family in marking the country's Armed Forces Day.
