After completing her military training, the heir to the throne is returning to Madrid and has chosen not a secluded path, but a fully public university, where many prominent figures in Spanish politics, television, and show business have already studied. This move immediately sparked a wave of interest: which celebrities can be found among the graduates and students of this university?<\/p>\n<h2>Stars of politics and media<\/h2>\n<p>As Divinity notes, Universidad Carlos III has long been a magnet for future politicians and media personalities. Over the years, figures such as Pablo Iglesias, who dedicated his master\u2019s research to the analysis of politics in film, have studied here, as well as Jos\u00e9 Manuel Rodr\u00edguez Uribes, who worked his way from a PhD candidate in law to Minister of Culture and Sport. Among the alumni is also Arancha Gonz\u00e1lez Laya, whose career ultimately led her to the position of Minister of Foreign Affairs.<\/p>\n<p>The world of television and journalism is also well represented. M\u00f3nica Carrillo graduated from the Faculty of Journalism back in 2000, and Lorena Garc\u00eda followed the same path a little later. Notable names include C\u00e9sar Mu\u00f1oz, host of \u2018El tiempo justo\u2019, and Desir\u00e9e Ndjambo, who combined journalism studies with social work. M\u00f3nica Mart\u00ednez, in turn, decided not to limit herself to one specialization and studied both journalism and audiovisual communications simultaneously.<\/p>\n<h2>Actors, TV hosts and unexpected paths<\/h2>\n<p>The world of show business was not left out, with some of its representatives\u2019 student stories proving equally fascinating. Gonzalo Mir\u00f3 started in the humanities but never completed his studies and then tried his luck at another university, where history repeated itself. Josie, the well-known stylist, is also listed among the students of Carlos III, later continuing with a master\u2019s degree.<\/p>\n<p>Graduates of the university are also found among actors. Sergio Peris-Mencheta once chose law and economics, but it was university theater that became the starting point of his career. David Lorente earned a law degree before taking to the stage. Omar Ayuso, a television star, enrolled in audiovisual communications, but left in his third year after landing a life-changing role. Sara Socas, well-known in the music industry, also studied journalism and audiovisual communications before dedicating herself entirely to music. Anna Ferrer Padilla chose economics and later applied her knowledge in business.<\/p>\n<h2>Royal tradition and a new path<\/h2>\n<p>Leonor\u2019s choice was immediately compared with the academic routes of other royal family members. Queen Letizia once studied journalism at the Universidad Complutense de Madrid, while Juan Carlos I studied law, economics, and finance at the same university, combining his education with military training. Now Leonor is betting on Carlos III, where she will study political science alongside other students, without special privileges or customized programs.<\/p>\n<p>This step not only brings the heiress back to the capital but also highlights her commitment to following the path of open education, which many prominent Spaniards have already taken. In the coming years, her university life will be closely followed not only by monarchy supporters but also by everyone interested in how new members of Spain\u2019s elite are shaped.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source russpain.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Princess Leonor\u2019s admission to Universidad Carlos III has become one of the most talked-about topics in the society columns in recent days.
