Spain's Queen Letizia posed for a photo after a cinema-date with her husband, King Felipe.

The 41-year-old royal was on a date with her husband, King Felipe VI, at the Kinepolis cinema in Madrid, when she was approached by excited fans who were watching 'Dawn of the Planet of the Apes' along with the couple.

Spain's Queen Letizia posed for a selfie at the cinema.

Letizia placed an arm around one of the girls as they smiled for the shot, which quickly went viral over the internet.

According to Hello! magazine, the young girls described the newly-crowned queen as "very friendly" after she stopped to chat to them for some time following the photo.

It isn't the first-time the royal couple have posed for selfies with members of the public.

King Felipe VI - who was sworn in last month following his father Juan Carlos' abdication - and his wife are regularly spotted out and about via updates on the Spanish Royal House's Twitter account which has over 145,000 followers.

The pair also made their first oversees engagement as King and Queen last month when they visited the Pope in Rome, Italy.

Felipe and Letizia were greeted by the head of the papal household and spent the morning with Pope Francis before attending a meeting with the Secretary of the Vatican State, Pietro Parolin, and flying back to Madrid.
