The mother-of-two offered a warm welcome to visitors with a big smile across her face.

The Spanish royal showed off her chic sense of style in a strikingly bold, yet elegant ensemble as she visited the school in north west Spain.
The Queen wore a Parisian-style striped white and navy top which had three-quarter-length sleeves and a high neckline.
Letizia visited the CEIP Plurilingüe do Camiño Inglés school, which is celebrating its tenth anniversary this year.
The director of the centre, Francisco Ávila, said he viewed the visit from the Queen as ‘a unique opportunity’ to highlight the work carried out by the centre, local media La Vanguardia reported.
Letizia tucked the top into a pair of smart navy suit trousers and opted to wear a belt, which cinched in her waist.

The former journalist finished her look by wearing a pair of Carrie Blue Suede Sling Back heels from Isabel Abdo.
The Queen wore three silver diamante hoops in each year and opted for natural makeup, along with her signature smoky eye shadow.
The royal smiled as she walked around the building, accompanied by officials such as the Minister of Education, Pilar Alegría, the president of the Xunta, Alfonso Rueda, and the president of the Parliament of Galicia, Miguel Ángel Santalices.
It’s been a busy couple of months for the Queen, from travelling to Australia to watch her national woman’s football team win the World Cup, to saying goodbye to both of her daughters.
King Felipe and Queen Letizia have an empty nest after their youngest daughter, Infanta Sofía, 16, moved to Wales last month.

Sofía, 16, left her residence at ‘Prince Pavilion’ near Zarzuela Palace to start school at UWC Atlantic College in the Welsh county of Vale of Glamorgan.
The school is often referred to as ‘Hippie Hogwarts’ thanks to its progressive approach to education and picturesque castle setting.
The college is based at St Donat’s Castle, south Wales in a 12th century castle set in 122 acres of woodland and farmland with its own valley and seafront.
It was founded in German educationalist Kurt Hahn, is situated at the 12th century St Donat’s Castle on the country’s south coast and costs a whopping £67,000 per year for courses including Tai Chi, the theory of knowledge and Tibetan literature.
Meanwhile the King and Queen’s eldest daughter, Princess Leonor, 17, also left to go to military academy last month.
The heir to the Spanish throne must complete the three years in line with tradition as she follows the path of her father, King Felipe.
Rather like a boarding school, General Military Academy of Zaragoza follows a strict timetable during the week. but Leonor will be free to return home at the weekends if she’s not on manoeuvres.
After training at the General Military Academy in Zaragoza, which is Spain’s equivalent to Sandhurst, she will go to naval school, and will complete her three years at the General Air Academy.
