Being ROYAL on BeReal! Queen Letizia of Spain poses for snaps on popular app

Queen Letizia of Spain has been photographed posing for photos for the BeReal app in images that were shared online by royal fans.

All followers on the social media app are simultaneously notified at an unpredictable two-minute time interval and asked to post whatever they are currently doing.

The Spanish mother-of-two was meeting a group of young swimmers on an undated occasion when it appears one got her notice of the day and obediently posed for a selfie.

In snapshots shared on Twitter yesterday by @david_h_moralesthe Queen can be seen beaming with joy in a photo with the group.

The application it is designed as an antidote to the careful presentation of our lives where images and videos are cleaned up and edited through various filters.

The random timing of the call to action makes it difficult to build a post that shows a perfect existence. The point is to be improvised.

However, it seems royal fans got lucky with the timing of the notification and snapped a selfie with the Queen.

In a video clip at the time, Queen Letizia appears to be receiving instructions from one of the young swimmers on how to use the app.

She can be seen fixing her hair as she prepares for a selfie, before taking another group shot directly in front of her.

In the undated snaps, the royal is dressed in a fuchsia pink top and a pair of black pants.

Letizia’s appearance on the social media app appears to be the first for a member of the royal family.

Although there is no official protocol for selfies in the British royal family, the royals have a rule against signing autographs, so they cannot be sold for large amounts of money.

And in the early days of camera phones, they seemed to avoid being photographed with members of the public with Princes William and Harry and King Charles all expressing their disgust with the method.

However, in recent years, they have become commonplace, with Charles posing for his first selfie in 2014, and other royals following suit.

Now the Prince and Princess of Wales are often seen posing for selfies during royal engagements with members of the public.

The late Queen was not a fan of selfies and would politely decline if ever asked to take one, as she was thought to prefer eye contact. However, this was more of a personal preference than a rule of any kind.

The clip came in the middle of a busy period for Letizia, who was seen chairing a conference of health chiefs in Madrid earlier today.

At the working meeting of the Spanish Association Against Cancer (AECC), the Queen discussed strategies to deal with the disease with some of Spain’s leading cancer experts.

The Queen, who is the 54-year-old wife of King Felipe VI, is the permanent honorary president of the association and its scientific foundation.

And earlier this month, she flew to Athens with her husband, King Philip, to attend the funeral of King Constantine II of Greece.

The royal couple greeted King Constantine’s grieving son, Crown Prince Pavlos, on the steps of the Orthodox Metropolitan Cathedral.

For the somber occasion, Letizia styled her hair into a sleek updo and opted for minimal jewelry to offset her tailored black dress.
