During the flag-raising ceremony, while the national anthem was playing, a strong gust of wind broke the ropes securing the flag to the flagpole, causing the flag to fall to the ground before the astonished eyes of all those present.

Spain and armed forces should not go together.

indeed.
But the most beautiful from royalties was and still remain an American actress Grace Kelly.
She married Prince Rainier III of Monaco on April 18, 1956.
After their marriage, she became known as Princess Grace of Monaco
Unfortunately, this beauty died in a car accident. Rainier remained a bachelor for the rest of his life.

Rather telling as those trees are not swaying and yet the wind manages to break loose the flag ?

That "rope" looked like sewing thread. I've seen sturdier clotheslines.
