Spain's former Queen Sofía has been released from a hospital in Madrid after four days. The 85-year-old was taken to the Ruber Internacional clinic on Tuesday because of a urinary tract infection.

After her discharge, she told waiting journalists outside the hospital on Saturday that she felt "very good," "phenomenal" and "like new," state TV station RTVE reported. She is looking forward to her home. Sofía attended a funeral in Madrid on Monday with her husband, former King Juan Carlos.
